Adding another year to her charmed life, Pippa Middleton was spotted out and about in London, England today (September 6), her 28th birthday.

The beautiful Brit babe donned a black blazer, white dress, and black boots as she carried her umbrella through the rainy streets.

In related news, photos of Pippa and her family that were taken five years ago have been removed from newspaper-owned websites.

Kris Humphries is Our Kate Middleton (Or At Least That’s What His Teammates Are Calling Him)

With their ubiquitous last names and increasingly public lives, the Kardashians may be one of the closest things we have to royalty in the states. I know, it’s a sad truth.

The comparison has been especially relevant lately since Kim’s extravagant nuptials to NBA player Kris Humphries last weekend, which was basically our royal wedding. Of course, in this scenario, Kris is the one who married into royalty, which is why his friends have apparently started calling him Kate Middleton, Page Six reports.

Cute nickname, Kris! It’s a legitimate comparison, though. Like Middleton, Kris will be spending a lot more time in the public eye and will need to step up his look. As of now, his status as a style icon is uncertain. Hopefully he can handle the pressure.

Is It Okay to Wear White to a Wedding Now (When You’re Not the Bride, Duh)? Kim Kardashian, Kate Moss and Kate Middleton All Seem To Think It Is

Wearing white to a wedding when you’re not that bride? It’s the cardinal wedding sin. Or it was.

Kate Middleton famously had her bridesmaids wear white–and we don’t have to tell you how well that went over, particularly for a certain, um, callipygian Maid of Honor.

Two months later the other Kate–Kate Moss, of course–also dressed her bridesmaids and flower girls (all 15 of them) in white. Guests Carine Roitfeld, Bella Freud, Naomi Campbell and Stella McCartney were also spotted wearing the shade at the wedding.

And now Kim Kardashian has jumped on the bandwagon, choosing white gowns that look remarkably like wedding dresses for her bridesmaids at recent nuptials. And while limited photos of Kim K‘s big wedding have been released, we already know that at least Lindsay Lohan wore white, and apparently the invite called for guests to wear black or white.

So what’s going on here? Why are so many of these celebrity brides giving up the spotlight (or at least a little of it) and encouraging people to wear white to their wedding?

According to Rachel Leonard, Fashion Editor of BRIDES, we have Pippa Middleton’s perfectly-toned butt to thank. “We can attribute this trend to Pippa, who made such a sensational impression,” Leonard said in an email this morning. “Her dress, among many aspects of the royal wedding, have had a great impact on US wedding trends.”

Weddingchannel.com editor Amy Eisinger adds that while the Royal Wedding may have kicked it off, the Kardashian wedding is sure to bring the trend to new heights this side of the pond. “The Kardashians are so accessible,” Eisinger said. “She made it okay to have an all-white bridal party.”

Eisinger went on to say that while she thinks the trend will stick, for the average bride it will be more subtle. “Kim had Kourtney and Khloe in very white, very bridal-looking gowns. I don’t know if we’re going to see that. But I think we’re going to start seeing a lot of cream, off-white and soft, romantic colors, in more traditional bridesmaid silhouettes.”

As for guests wearing white–a la Lohan–Eisinger says she still wouldn’t recommend it, even if the invite does call for black or white. “It still doesn’t make it okay. I would definitely check before wearing white to a wedding,” she said. But, given that both Moss’ and Kim Kardashian’s wedding seemed to ask their guests to wear white or black, Eisinger said she wouldn’t be surprised if a monochromatic dress code too caught on.

But before you pronounce this a revolution, both Leonard and Eisinger pointed out that this trend is not entirely new. “It’s actually a very, very old trend,” Eisinger said, who went on to explain that an old British superstition, dating back hundreds of years, held that bridesmaids should dress identical to the bride in an attempt to confuse evil spirits. Maybe that’s what Kim was up to?

Would You Rather…? Lindsay Lohan Vs. Pippa Middleton in Temperley

Everyone wants to be Pippa Middleton, including Lindsay Lohan, apparently. The troubled starlet, along with her mother and sister, were surprise guests at this weekend’s Kardashian-Humphries nuptials. She wore a long white dress–which isn’t scandalous, as guests were reportedly asked to wear black or white. However, it was the same Temperley London dress that Pippa Middleton wore to that other really big wedding earlier this year. The Royal Wedding’s breakout star wore a custom-made green version of the dress to the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s reception back in April.

It can be hard to figure out what to wear to a wedding–especially one as high-profile as this one–and there’s nothing wrong with getting a little inspiration from someone who got it right.

But it looks, well, different on Lohan, no? Who do you think wore it better?
