Wills is great and all, but we live for princess dresses!

Last Thursday, Prince William gave a short speech at the 2012 SkillForce Princes Award Ceremony held at St James's Palace. He, of course, looked dapper in his formal attire. Kate Middleton, however, was nowhere to be seen.

The duchess had been busy in the days leading up to the event; while her husband said an emotional goodbye to his childhood nanny at a funeral service in England, Kate flew solo for a series of public engagements in Newcastle.

Don't worry though: The royal couple have had some fun as a pair! Last Wednesday, William and Kate—along with Pippa Middleton and Princess Eugenie—hit the town. The foursome turned up at the private members club Loulou in the capital's tony Mayfair neighborhood.

Those royals sure stay busy!
