Did you know that Kate has been seen wearing the same article of clothing more than once???!?!!?! Sometimes she'll wear the same dress to occasions only several months apart! I know! Sometimes she'll pair it with a kicky beret and other times a fascinator just so she doesn't look entirely ridiculous. They did also temper the story with the footnote that she grew up a commoner in a middle class family so obviously she should be forgiven.
Nevermind the debatable idea that the Royal Wardrobe is not newsworthy, just who do they take their audience for? Is re-wearing clothes really such a big deal? Am I the freak for doing so? Why am I asking rhetorical questions?
Seriously, stuff like that really chaps my hide. In a world where so many people are homeless, have trouble putting food on the table or shoes on their kids feet, how is one expected to give a flip what someone wears two or three times? It is insane to think that anyone, even the future queen of England, should trollop off to the store and buy a new outfit for every day of one's life. The story spoke to me in a semi-deep way about the disconnect between the upper-class and the real world and its inhabitants. There is injustice all around us. One need only open one's eyes to see.
