Chris Jackson/Getty ImagesWhile we'd love to stay swooning over the wild bachelor party we're hoping Prince Harry will throw his big bro, there are slightly more death-defying matters at hand. Like, the fact that Kate Middleton has just been inducted into royal crowd surfing, and boating.
The always uniquely attired beauty made her first public appearance yesterday since announcing her engagement with Prince William in November.
So how'd she look?
Wearing feathers upon her head and a chic camel coat, Kate met with locals in North Wales, where she learned how to launch her first boat, thanks to future hubby and (we hope) the next King of England.
While the most scrutinized couple in the world gets their hands dirty together, guests are frantically preparing their own outfits and schedules for the wedding day, especially after all 1,900 classic gold-encrusted invites have been received (minus bad-girl Sarah Ferguson's).
But is Kate neglecting some big fans of hers?
There's a loon who thinks so!
Nineteen-year-old Estibalis Chavez has been camped outside of Mexico City's British Embassy for two weeks petitioning for one of those pretty invites to Kate and Wills' wedding.
The royal fanatic has been passing the time by painting portraits of the prince and soon-to-be princess, as well as giving out handwritten flyers reading: "Are they going to let me die just because they won't give me an invitation to the royal wedding?"
Is this woman a Twi-hard, or something? Extreme, much?
Well, turns out the royal couple knows about the starving girl, desperately vying to a royal place-card holder, but Buckingham Palace has released a statement that there are no more spots available.
Chavez told the Daily Mail she was born the day Princess Di died, and it is only right she attend Williams' wedding.
Might as well eat something, babe, 'cause Kate's got other plebian types on her mind:
John Haley, who drips brewstees at his joint Old Boot Inn in Stanford Dingley near Kate's hometown, will be a welcomed commoner amongst the royals at Westminster Abbey on April 29.
The pub owner said a new, pricey suit is in order for the shindig since he has nothing fancy enough for the occasion. Sounds like the perfect excuse to get your fashion duds in order, sir! Every commoner is pulling out the stylish stops for this one, trust.
Now, since we've already established everyone's getting tanked for this romantic spectacle, let's take an even trendier turn in royal news...
Hats off to you Philip Tracey, the lucky hat designer who will be making the headpieces for the royal wedding. And, we know Kate loves her hats. Guaranteed, she won't leave the palace without one.
The brilliant designer has created fantastic pieces for Alexander McQueen, Sarah Jessica Parker, Lady Gaga, and even Kate's future step-mum-in-law Camilla, Duchess of Corwall. No surprise there, Tracey must have been a hot topic of discussion during that secretive brunch the two went on just weeks ago.
Now, we just wish Ms. Middleton would spill on who's designing that fab dress of hers. We're still holding out for Victoria Beckham, who is supposedly set to be designing Kate's princess wardrobe post-wedding. But no word on the actual dress. Still, rumor has it the Beckhams received one of those invites. I mean, you have to invite your wedding-dress designer, right?
Either way, let's hope Kate stops at headpieces when it comes to following in the footsteps of Camilla, come nuptial time, and beckons on Mrs. Beckham to be her signature style muse, at the very least, for the most important day of her life.
It's time for a change. A big one.
