As tennis players such as Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray battled it out on court the past two weeks during the Wimbledon tournament, their girlfriends watched on from the players’ boxes and cheered for their men. In fact we were quite taken with the gorgeous wives and girlfriends in the stands (as is the fascination with WAGs) that we decided to take a closer look at the ladies who support some of the top men in tennis.
Wimbledon has wrapped up for another year, culminating in the victories of Novak Djokovic in the men’s tournament and Petra Kvitova in the women’s. Over the course of the two week sporting event many famous faces made their way to the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club to watch the world’s top players face off in exciting matches. Among the spectators were Kate Middleton and Prince William, who participated in a crowd wave, and Pippa Middleton, who made two appearances and has made no secret of her love of the sport. Kirsten Dunst, who starred in the 2004 film Wimbledon, showed off some cute style on the first day, as did Dakota Fanning. And glam ladies such as Brooklyn Decker and Bec Hewitt were there to support their husbands Andy Roddick and Lleyton Hewitt respectively. Want to see who else sat courtside? Step inside to see Anne Hathaway, Rupert Grint, some of the players’ stunning girlfriends and more.

While we had a few ideas up our sleeve for hair and makeup looks that we thought Kate Middleton should try, we were pleased as punch upon seeing her looking as pretty as a picture in her white frock with Wills at Wimbledon yesterday. I won't say she deviated too far from her signature style, but in place of her regular blow-dry, her long dark locks were styled in bouncy, voluminous curls, and if possible looked even glossier than usual. While her makeup was a little more understated, she added a pop of glossy petal-pink lipstick, complementing her blushing pink cheeks. Me likey! For a similar look, apply L’Oreal Professional Texture Expert Curl Corset Aqua Mousse ($30) for perfectly sculpted curls with an added extra shine and MAC Cosmetics Tinted Lipglass in Pink Poodle ($35).

The royal style keeps-a-coming from Kate Middleton! Yesterday we saw the Duchess of Cambridge in a chic Alexander McQueen coat for her military duties, but today she's gone a more femme, flirty route in this tiered Temperley LWD for an afternoon at Wimbledon. Kate joined Prince William in the stands, and couldn't keep the grin off her face the whole match through. I guess we'd be smiling too if we looked as good as her! She teamed her pleat-detailed sundress with a streamlined nude clutch and pumps, ensuring that her flirty frock was the centre of attention.

Kate Middleton embraced the warm weather and picked a white sundress with big, bouncy curls for her 'do to sit courtside with Prince William at Wimbledon yesterday. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were incredibly smiley and looked like they were having a blast as they watched Britain's own Andy Murray take on French player Richard Gasquet. The royal newlyweds had a big weekend as well, and Kate wore a stunning military coat to help honour members of the Irish Guard who served in Afghanistan. Prince William and Kate's North America trip starts in just a few days, and they released official royal portraits ahead of their trip. After their week-long visit to Canada, they will be off to the West Coast of the United States for charity work, a philanthropic polo match, and a star-studded BAFTA event in LA.
Did these girls get dressed together? If not, that's some mighty coincidence! Fashionable friends Kirsten Dunst and Lula mag editor Leith Clark both wore the same boyfriend blazer/floral frock/round sunnies combo to a VIP suite at Wimbledon in London yesterday. How cute do they look? The uncanny similarity showed us how easy to throw together, but down-right cool their little ensemble looks — so we we went a-hunting to find our own version of their cool-girl uniform. Worried about making it Winter-appropriate? Just add opaque tights, a pair of ankle boots like Leith's, and a cosy scarf to keep warm. Clever, non?
