Look at Kate Middleton's feet all comfy in her sneakers.

Bet they felt cozy in those suede Mint Velvet plimsolls while their royal owner went shopping at Crucial Trading and Turnell & Gigon in London this week.

Mmhmm, some people could really learn from her!

The Duchess is getting closer and closer to her July due date, but unfortunately we could not catch a glimpse of her baby bump with that giant umbrella in the way.

Pesky security guards!

Kate completed her street ensem with a tweed jacket, rolled jeans, and checkered scarf.

Can't wait till that bouncing bundle of joy is born!

It's been one craaaaAAAAaaaazy week for Directioners.

One Direction had their big announcement yesterday where they announced their Where We Are stadium tour in 2014 - and to sweeten the deal, they went SHIRTLESS.

Yes, after their press conference, the boys walked out onto the massive Wembley Stadium soccer field where they took off their shirts and changed into several jersies representing all the countries they will be touring next year. OH, and not only that, but they played soccer too like the little hotties that they are.

Go get your bibs ready because you're about to droooooool when you see this footage AFTER THE JUMP!!

Kate Middleton can have any food she wants for the royal baby bump!

So what does she decide to feed it?

The royal answer is…….

Phew!

We may never see Matthew Crawley again, but at least we know the rest of Downton Abbey will be crossing the pond for its fourth season!

Set to premiere on PBS January 5th of next year, the show’s new episodes will run their usual eight week course through late February for what is bound to be an eventful arc.

Ch-ch-check out newly released stills (below)!

With the passing of two beloved characters, the show will feature the remaining Crawleys', particularly Mary's, transition into their new circumstances. ITV revealed:

Pippa Middleton, royal by association and bonafide bon vivant, dodged paps as she left the Vanity Fair luncheon in London on Tuesday.

The 29-year-old looked spiffy in a black croc-print skirt, Temperley London blazer, and crisp white Sandro shirt as she swung her Kate Spade bag on her way to her next fab destination.

But we are questioning those dotted Alice + Olivia pumps. They're rather jarring.

We bet Kate Middleton would make them work!

Morrissey is a big fighter for animal rights.

So of course he slapped his name on a petition that was demanding an independent probe into a vivisection lab at Imperial College London.

If you're unfamiliar with the term, vivisection is a surgery performed on a living creature for experimental purposes.

That means these animals are ALIVE when scientists begin cutting into them!

It was a Chanel kinda night, wasn't it?

Rita Ora continued to show off her walking skills on Thursday, this time back on her home turf in London.

The freshly tattooed songbird was seen leaving the Groucho Club looking mod and chic in a black stretch FAY mini dress and Kate Spade printed coat.

Rita also dusted off her new favorite Chanel knee-high boots and red lego clutch for her late night outing.

Hey, if we had a pair of ridiculously expensive boots and equally expensive designer clutch, we'd use them all the time too!
