ElleGirl- We love a royal affair just as much as the next girl, so even though our invite for Queen Elizabeth II’s last-ever Diamond Jubilee got lost in the mail, we decided the next best thing was to dress for the occasion. We’ve kept our eyes peeled on Her Majesty as she’s celebrated her 60 years as Monarch, and we’ve been blown away by her amazing regal ensembles, including tailored skirt suits, eccentric headwear, and classic pearls. Following the Queen’s (and Queen-to-be’s) lead, we’ve compiled a guide to achieving timeless royal style. The Fascinator The Brits have been donning fascinators (code for fancy headpieces) since the days of Diana, and newbie Kate Middleton has taken the trend head-on—literally—sporting eccentric hats wherever she goes (the Duchess was even crowned “Hat Person of the Year” by The Headwear Assocation!). In short, you’re not dressing like a royal unless you’re wearing one of these babies on your head.

Pieces fuille bow fascinator, $16. The Skirt Suit When we think of a skirt suit, we can’t help but picture something our grandma would wear—but it doesn’t have to be that way. Give the age-old look a chic update by mixing and matching the top and bottom—it’s just as dressy, but a little more fun.

J.Crew no. 2 pencil skirt in double-serge cotton, $90. Patent Leather Pumps If you’re all dressed up in a skirt suit, you’d better have the shoes to match. A classic pair of patent leather pumps—in Kate’s go-to nude color—will tie together your ensemble (and lengthen your legs!).

Lauren by Ralph Lauren faux pearl stud earrings, $24. The Baguette It’s anything but royal to lug around everything you own on your arm, so for the Jubilee, keep it light: a small baguette is perfect for carrying just the essential items (i.e. phone, money, and lip gloss).

Amber.Stardoll- Check this out: two of our time's most successful singers in a fashion duel! Epic! We spotted Katy Perry in her new goth inspired look, wearing this sheer black dress. But did you know Rihanna wore a similar dress back in 2010? She chose the red version of it, and matched it with her old haircolor. But that leads us up to the big question: Who wore it best? Vote, vote, vote!

- We spotted these two gorgeous blondes wearing similar Burberry dresses. Kate Bosworth went for a more edgy look in a shorter version of the dress wearing strappy heels, and model Laura Bailey wore a long sleeved dress matched with chunky heels. But the question is as always - who wore it best? Laura or Kate? Vote and tell us!

- Ashley Greene, how do you manage to look so fabulous after leaving the gym? That's what we want to know! While we usually look super sweaty and tired, Ashley looks fab in her top knot and glowing skin. Some girls really have it all...

With her fantastic suite, she’s done wonders with affordable materials found in the suite shop. I love how she’s mixed and matched different colours and textures and her rooms transport you to somewhere hot and exotic!

- We're not looking forward to the final episode of Gossip Girl, but Leighton Meester (who plays Blair) says she can't wait to move on from Upper East Side: "It's great to move on and do something different", she explains. "It's bittersweet, that's the perfect word for it.", she continued. Instead she wants to go on with her music career, and she's planning on releasing an album by the end of this year. And if you want to see even more of the rich and famous of Gossip Girl, we're afraid we must dissappoint you, because there are no plans of doing a movie: "I've never heard anything from the producers or from anyone involved with Gossip Girl", she reveals. Anyhow, we guess the Gossip Girl finale will be epic! (eonline)

Valentino, who retired from fashion design in 2008, is designing anew—this time for the New York City Ballet’s Fall Gala. The September 20th event aims to celebrate the legendary couturier with a performance of George Balanchine’s “Rubies”—a tribute to the designer’s signature red. In return, Valentino is creating costumes for three works that will be performed during the evening, including a new ballet set to Tschaikovsky’s “Eugene Onegin.” Of the endeavor, Valentino says, “There is so much beauty in the ballet, the grace, the fluidity.” He is honored to have City Ballet “celebrate my work in this way,” he said, “And I am very passionate about the design of these very special costumes.” This is not the first time Valentino designed for ballet since his retirement; he designed costumes for the Vienna Ballet in 2009. Sarah Jessica Parker and Valentino’s longtime business partner Giancarlo Giammetti are set to co-chair the evening.

Kate Middleton, ever the Alexander McQueen fan, has worn the label three times in as many days, all for the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee celebrations. On Sunday, it was a red pleated custom McQueen dress for the Diamond Jubilee River Pageant; yesterday, it was a black McQueen blazer Middleton wore over a patterned Whistles dress for the Diamond Jubilee Concert. And today, she attended the special service hosted at St. Paul’s Cathedral in London—which wraps up the central celebration of the Diamond Jubilee—again in long-sleeved, knee-length McQueen. The blush dress is covered in lace and features a satin waist detail; Middleton paired it with her trusty nude LK Bennett heels, a satin box clutch, pearl drop earrings, and a Jane Taylor hat. If Sarah Burton wasn’t already cemented as Middleton’s go-to designer for official royal appearances, this past run certainly solidifies it.
