Kate Middleton and Queen Camilla Just Rewore Key Pieces From Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's 2018 Wedding
For Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's 2018 nuptials, Kate Middleton wore an off-white dress with a Philip Treacy hat, and Queen Camilla donned a pink ensemble with a dramatic fascinator.
Recently, Kate rewore the accessory to a garden party, and Camilla turned to the blush-hued dress for a state visit to Canada.
Royal experts believe that the two may have been sending a signal by rewearing the pieces, as the looks came just days after Harry and Meghan's seventh wedding anniversary.While much of the focus was on Meghan Markle's boatneck gown during her 2018 nuptials to Prince Harry at St. George's Chapel, the public also took notice of the rest of the royal family's looks. For the occasion, Kate Middleton donned an off-white Alexander McQueen coat-style dress with a coordinated fascinator, while Queen Camilla (who was then the Duchess of Cornwall) wore a blush-hued ensemble with a choker-style necklace. And though Meghan may never rewear her gown, it appears as though Kate and Camilla are still found of their looks from the 2018 fête. On Tuesday, May 20, Kate rewore the Philip Treacy hat she selected for her brother-in-law's ceremony to a garden party at Buckingham Palace. And less than a week later—on Monday, May 26—Camilla wore the same pink dress she had donned for the wedding during a state visit to Canada with Prince Charles.
The royals' decision to showcase the pieces again isn't necessarily surprising, as Kate has been known to rewear her go-to looks. In fact, the dress she donned for Harry and Meghan's wedding was one she had previously debuted at another important engagement: the 2015 christening of Princess Charlotte. A few years after Harry and Meghan's nuptials, she also wore the piece for the 2022 Anzac Day Service of Commemoration and Thanksgiving at Westminster Abbey. However, during all three occasions, she made sure to slightly alter her look, opting to pair the coat-style dress with a different hat. Yet, on May 20, it was the fascinator from the 2018 ceremony that made its return. For the garden party, Kate wore the piece with a butter yellow Emilia Wickstead dress and the earrings she featured on her own wedding day.

During a recent visit to Canada with Charles, Camilla made the opposite decision from her daughter-in-law, opting to don the dress she wore to Harry and Meghan's nuptials—without the fascinator. The pink-hued look, which was designed by Anna Valentine, was paired with neutral pumps, a Van Cleef and Arpels clover bracelet, a maple brooch, and a pendant that includes the initials of her grandchildren, according to Hello!.
Some speculate that the two's decision to rewear such pieces may have been a nod to Harry and Meghan, particularly since they donned the looks shortly after the duo's seventh wedding anniversary, which fell on May 19, 2025. Others hypothesized that Kate's selection of the fascinator may have had more to do with the recent revelations that she and Meghan were both in tears over a dispute regarding the bridesmaid dresses for the latter's wedding, which has been the subject of media attention for years. "The truth is that during the discussions about the bridesmaid's dress Meghan said a few things she regretted and Kate said a few things she later regretted, but it was all in the heat of the moment," a staffer said in a new royal biography. "Both women were crying their eyes out!" And while neither party has commented on the latest disclosure, some believe that Kate made a subtle gesture through her choice of accessories.

USPS Shares Update For Holiday Season 2025
The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) announced the release of its new holiday-themed and Elie Wiesel commemorative stamps on Thursday, marking preparations for the 2025 holiday season. USPS also confirmed important 2025 stamp release dates, and directed customers to its official sales channels ahead of the holiday surge. The holiday season remains the busiest period for USPS, with hundreds of millions of packages and cards sent between Thanksgiving and New Year's Day. New Holiday Cheer Stamp Designs for 2025 USPS released details of four new holiday-themed stamps, each presented in booklets of 20. The designs feature amaryllis flowers, a holly wreath, an evergreen branch with fruit, and cardinals on mistletoe. The images were created using a collage technique, combining gouache and acrylic paint on vintage gardening book paper, then arranged on archival cotton board. The stamps were designed by Derry Noyes, with original artwork from Denise Fiedler. Elie Wiesel Honored in New Stamp Issue The 18th stamp in the "Distinguished Americans" series honors Elie Wiesel (1928–2016), Nobel Peace Prize laureate and Holocaust survivor. The stamp features a black-and-white photograph from 1999 by Sergey Bermeniev and is designed for 2-ounce mail. Wiesel's decades of writings and advocacy continue to serve as a source of inspiration, the USPS said in its announcement. Release Dates and Ceremony Locations The USPS confirmed release dates and cities for its upcoming specialized stamps. The Holiday Cheer stamps will be available starting September 13 in Washington, D.C., while the Elie Wiesel stamp will debut on September 17 in New York. Additional 2025 USPS stamp releases include tributes to the U.S. Army, U.S. Navy, U.S. Marine Corps on their 250th anniversaries, a World Stamp Show-themed issue for Boston 2026, and a new American Flag Forever stamp. How to Purchase Holiday and Commemorative Stamps USPS customers may buy stamps online at The Postal Store, by phone, by mail through USA Philatelic, and at select post offices nationwide. Licensed collectible stamp products are also available on Amazon. Operational Plans and USPS Holiday Schedule for 2025 USPS will observe standard federal holiday closures, including no mail delivery on Christmas Day, New Year's Day, Thanksgiving, and other official holidays. The agency encourages customers to plan early for holiday season due to increased parcel volume and potential delays. USPS chief performance officer and executive vice president Joshua Colin said ahead of the holiday season last year: "Thanks to the substantial progress we have made under the Delivering for America plan, we are ready and confident to handle the holiday surge... Our ability to move packages and mail throughout our network has never been stronger. USPS continues to be the most affordable and reliable way to ship packages and mail this holiday season and year-round." Stamp issues planned for the rest of the year include a SpongeBob SquarePants series, a luna moth stamp, and the Boston 2026 World Stamp Show.

Vance to headline $250,000 Nantucket political dinner
Bob Reynolds did not respond to a request for comment on Wednesday evening. Advertisement President Donald Trump and Vance have made a priority of attending a series of fundraisers around the country as they look to build up the GOP's finances for the 2026 midterms, when they will be defending majorities in both the House and the Senate. Typically, the president's party loses congressional seats in the midterms. In 2018, in the middle of Trump's first term, the GOP lost 40 House seats and their majority. The recapture of the House by Democrats allowed the party to block Trump's legislative agenda while launching investigations of his administration. Earlier: Vance Will Lead GOP Fundraising Efforts for Midterm Elections The pricetag for the event shows how high Vance's political star has risen in a short time. He also attended a Nantucket fundraiser in 2022 hosted by Reynolds when he was running for Senate in Ohio. Tickets for that event were $2,500. Advertisement Nantucket has a long history as a retreat for presidents and the ultra-rich. Former President Joe Biden spent Thanksgiving on the island while in office, staying at the home of Carlyle Group Inc. co-founder and Bloomberg contributor David Rubenstein.
