Kate Middleton nails the windswept look with this effortless hairstyle trick

As a child, I used to think that princesses were make-believe and only something we would read about in story books or watched in Disney films. But as you do, I grew up to learn about the British Royal Family and more specifically, Kate Middleton – spoiler: she is, in fact, a real-life human being. Though, with her latest hair look, all of those child-like thoughts are flooding back. I mean, how can one look so perfect whilst caught in a gust of wind?! Well, luckily for you, I have the deets...

As you may have seen, Prince William and his wife, K-Mid (aka The Princess of Wales) are in Boston for their first visit to the United States in eight years. This also marks this as the couple's first trip overseas since the death of Queen Elizabeth II.

Included in their whistle-stop tour (they're only in the country for three days!), just yesterday the pair visited the east side of Boston to see the changing face of its shoreline as the city contends with rising sea levels.

Now, as expected it looked to be pretty windy – I'm no scientist but they were by a large body of water, after all. Though, having said that, the hairstyle that Kate wore made her locks fall effortlessly.

To keep her hair back and tamed but still down, the princess sported a half-up half-down 'do with the face-framing strands pinned to the back of her head. Yep, it's as easy (and simple) as that! Oh, and would you just look at those end-length curls? Just perfect, as always.

She is beauty, she is grace.

BRB whilst I try and recreate this look for a trip to Southend-on-Sea... not quite as glamorous but it's the best a Londoner can get.

  • Streaming: Are consumers fed up with subscription costs yet?

    Streaming services have raised subscriptions costs in recent years with a potential for prices to keep increasing down the line. With inflation making its way through consumer goods and services, how are consumers feeling about these price increases? Will they continue to opt in to select services or should streaming companies like Amazon Prime Video (AMZN) be worried? D’Amore-McKim School of Business at Northeastern University Associate Dean of Research and Professor of Marketing Koen Pauwels joins Wealth! to give insight into how consumers are reacting to rising subscription costs from streaming providers.  "If you're the kind of consumer who is relatively price insensitive and you don't want to be bothered with ads and you want all of your shows to be on one kind of data provider so you don't have to lose the time to figure out which show is where, then you're going to settle [and] select for this ad-free tier," Pauwels points out, "which also means that Netflix (NFLX) can continue raising prices on that one because their pool of consumers choosing for this non-ad service is going to be more restricted, more selective who don't care about prices that much."
