Being told you’re soon to become an aunt is a feather in any girl’s cap – especially when the expected child will be a future monarch.
That’s why Pippa Middleton had every reason to adopt a jaunty look as she attended the wedding of friend Emma Logue in Northern Ireland yesterday.
The younger sister of the Duchess of Cambridge was wearing a tweed button pillbox hat with pheasant feather trim, thought to be a £400 gift from society milliner Gina Foster.
Pippa picked it up last week from the designer’s showroom close to Kate’s home at Kensington Palace.
Pippa also wore a stunning blue satin dress and matching high heels and warded off the winter chill in a snug stole.
Pippa walked arm-in-arm with a friend after the ceremony at the St Philip and St James Holywood parish church in Co Down, where Emma married software developer Alex Roupell.
Pippa and Emma – a banker-turned-designer who recently launched the fashion label Logue London – have been friends since their college days.
