5 Reasons Why Kate Middleton Is The Perfect Princess

Now I know we have all fantasized that we were actually a Princess from some obscure country destined to rule your country with the utmost class complete with dozens of eligible suitors waiting for you when you arrive. However, that only happens in The Princess Diaries or to Olivia Wilde so don't get your hopes up. The closest I will ever get to becoming a real life Princess is by living vicariously through Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge even if she does live across the Atlantic and I have never met her. I have big dreams.

I was a huge Princess Diana fan, I even had the beanie baby they created for her. She was flawless, beautiful, elegant, charitable and a Princess. So it is no surprise that I have a big girl crush on her son's bride. I hope that doesn't sound too creepy. Below I have compiled a list of reasons complete with pictures I borrowed from google and facebook to explain why I think that Kate Middleton is the perfect modern day Princess. Side note: I know that technically she is a Duchess, but I don't really understand the English Monarchy and will call her a Princess.

1. Her engagement ring is Princess Diana's engagement ring. I mean, what a great hand me down. It isn't like this is just some huge rock that he got at Jared. Even though this ring is slightly tainted with heartbreak and divorce, she wears it with a million dollar smile. 


2. Her wardrobe is unreal. I mean who else can rock those hats without apology and still look effortlessly chic? Answer: no one. I know she probably has a team of stylists choosing her every outfit, but I choose to believe she hand picks every outfit and looks fabulous because of it.

3. Her given name is Catherine Elizabeth and the world calls her Kate. Another reason this is reminiscent of Princess Diana, the world called her Di which is precious. Personally, I believe the name Catherine is beautiful and think she should go by that. But, when the entire world calls you by a nickname, you know you're an icon. Also, when you play ping pong in a dress. 



4. The Royal Wedding was one of the highlights of my year and not only because it was a fairy tale come true on live television. There were parties celebrating this event all over the world. For example, my favorite Ohio State bar, Too's held a Royal Wedding viewing party starting at 5am with drink specials until the next day at 2:30am. This event was complete with ring pops for all the wannabe princesses and a british buffet for all the men who came to watch us crazy ladies. I believe one day there will be a live broadcast of my wedding all over the world with OSU students drinking to our marital bliss at their favorite college bar. I said I dream big. 



5. She was deemed a commoner in her home country of England, went to university as they say, met a prince, got a job as an accessory buyer, broke up with said prince then several months later was engaged to be married and became a princess. So clearly I did college wrong. Is it too late to go back? She was nicknamed "waitey kate" by the media because it looked as if all she was doing was waiting around for a wedding proposal to become part of the royal family. She made some great life decisions that I completely support which also further my reasoning as to why I believe she is the perfect princess, she doesn't take "no" for an answer. 



Now these are only a few reasons as to why Kate Middleton is flawless in my mind. I didn't even touch on the fact that she is absolutely stunning, has the perfect smile, has my dream job, was at basically every Olympic event and has an English accent. I'm sure one day when I'm feeling extra jealous of her life I will write more about why she is perfect but that's all for now.
