Pippa Middleton's been flashing her brand-new engagement ring with flouncy Summer dresses, and her latest is a colorful floral design by Vila. While the vibrant pattern definitely added to her glow, perhaps it's Pippa's laid-back, prewedding style that's really put a smile on her face. In fact, back before her sister Kate married Prince William, the duchess wore similar outfits, consisting of sleeveless chiffon dresses that paired lovely with wedges.

While Kate's look became more sophisticated once she took on her royal duties, it's safe to say she spent time in carefree pieces like this one while running errands before her ceremony too. Read on to see how Pippa channeled Kate on her recent outing, then shop for similar numbers — and don't forget to check out all the times the Middleton sisters took a fashion tip from one another.
