If Kate Middleton is in first place for most admired royal style, there's a very strong contender right behind her: Queen Letizia, the gorgeous woman who became queen of Spain this summer. The two have a lot of shared style sensibilities, but Letizia can sometimes offer up some more practical options (T-shirt and flat sandals included).

The saying that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery makes total sense to me, and I've always been flattered if someone asks where I got something.

Some of them were specific, with me asking her for info, and others, like my new ,

Scandal's Olivia Pope has taught us a lot of things, including but not limited to the following. It's possible to drink red wine on a white couch and not make a huge mess, repeating "I am a gladiator" is half the battle of conquering any situation life may throw at you, and as long as you are always there for your people, they will eventually forgive you for disappearing to a deserted island with your boyfriend.
