Kate Middleton stepped out last night with hubby William to attend a charity gala in London wearing a long-sleeved scarlet gown by Beulah London. Pippa Middleton donned that red slinky Temperley number last week for a celebrity boxing match.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are looking like they need a few days of rest. After their whirlwind North American jaunt and Zara Phillips’ recent wedding, they recently took a stroll in Holyrood Park. The press reported that the couple flew coach home from the wedding, which–let’s face it–can make anyone look a bit stressed out.
