While no paparazzi have managed to break through Kate and William’s Fortress of Solitude i
Too lazy to work out? Just go get plastic surgery. The Daily Mail reports that there has been a 60% increase in butt-lifting procedures since Pippa revealed hers in the now-historic McQueen bridesmaid dress. Just ask for the “Pip Package Perfect Posterior.” It costs about $13,000. And it probably hurts like a mother.
We’ll just accept the bum we were born with.
Pippa Middleton is still inspiring legions of women in the UK and abroad, and recently just won a very prestigious honor. Her skin tone, dubbed the “Royal Mocha,” has been voted the most desirable shade by British women looking to fake bake, the Daily Mail is reporting. The study, commissioned by a new UK TV station, included a poll of 2,000 women who were presented with a color chart of various tan Brit celebs. The station also paraded tan models in bikinis and high heels all over London, to act as representatives of each celeb, which I’m sure cheered up a lot of people on the street. Pippa’s glow won with over 60% of the votes. The majority of the women surveyed said they feel better about themselves and sexier when they have a tan.
While Pippa Middleton's famous butt has been her secret weapon up to this point, she may be in big trouble with French authorities for her involvement over the weekend with a real, actual weapon. The Daily Mail is reporting that Pippa was riding shotgun (sorry) in a convertible in Paris, when the driver of the car supposedly whipped out a semi-automatic handgun and started waving it at photographers. A witness reported it to French police. According to the Mail, the incident occurred just hours after Pippa left the 29th birthday of "Paris fashion entrepreneur" Arthur de Soultrait (he's the guy behind Vicomte A) at 6am. While Pippa hasn't been charged with anything yet, a "judicial source" told US Weekly, "If the evidence points to [Pippa Middleton's] involvement, she will be prosecuted."
Let’s face it: tan skin hasn’t really gone out of style since the heyday of the '80s when girls slathered baby oil on themselves and baked in their backyards. There was possibly a brief stint in the '90s--the heroin chic era--when a golden tan wasn’t quite as desirable, but it’s never really disappeared. Now it’s come roaring back with a vengeance. From the boom of Brazilian models like Gisele and Alessandra Ambrosio to the caricature of tanning portrayed on Jersey Shore, a glow has never been more desirable. And thanks to a certain very tan British family, the trend is guaranteed to stick around for awhile.
Being a bridesmaid is a rather thankless task that normally requires you to wear an unflattering dress that will never see the light of day again. But Pippa Middleton has singlehandedly raised the bar for bridesmaid fashion. (It also helps that she has a body built for sin and could probably make the dowdiest thing in existence look fabulous.) The New York Times' Stephanie Clifford is reporting that Pippa's Sarah Burton for McQueen dress is the first famous bridesmaid dress that fast fashion bridal manufacturers are trying to get into production as fast as the bride's. So not only are they trying to make TWO princess wedding gowns, they're also scrambling to churn out a slinky bridesmaid's number. And in this era of immediate gratification, manufacturers need to get the gowns to market in about 12 weeks to satisfy the demand for all three gowns.
