We’re quietly crushing on Vogue’s new blog, in part because it tells us this:

“As rumors go this is a hot one. Kate Middleton, formerly of the Prince William and Kate Middleton show, might go to work for Tom Ford as some sort of in-house consultant or public-relations person. Since she likes fashion (she works as an accessories buyer for Jigsaw, the British clothing chain), the thinking is that some clever fashion house will score a big public-relations coup by hiring her… And if, maybe as a favor or a kindness owed his ex, young William supports young Kate’s new job by wearing one of her designer’s suits or, even better, turning up at a fashion show, she will be worth her weight in publicity gold.”

I don’t think Will will ever turn up at Kate’s fashion show, but the idea of Ms. Middleton moving into a high profile job at a major fashion house is… so smart, it’s amazing it hasn’t already happened.
Of course, Kate would have to start looking stylish, but if Vogue can embrace a juicy, party-packed blog of their own, anything seems possible…
