  • The Duchess of Cambridge: A decade of Modern Royal Style

    By Bethan Holt
    5 stars

    This book is a stunning collection of photographs of Catherine Middleton and her clothes, jewellery, hats, and shoes. If you are a Catherine fan like me you will love reading about how each piece of couture was assembled, why each outfit was worn for each occasion, and the accessories and history of the jewellery. Many of the jewellery pieces are borrowed from the Royal Collection and have fascinating stories of their previous owners. This is not just a picture book, it has very well researched information written by Bethan Holt who is the fashion news editor for The Telegraph, one of the UKs leading newspapers.
