Kate Middleton's sentimental jewelry is perfect for Mother's Day — we found 11 dupes for way less
As a working mom, Princess Kate spends a lot of time on the road. She travels extensively for royal duties, engagements and tours and, with three school-aged children at home, she, like many busy moms, has found a way to keep them close to her heart — with custom initials necklaces.
The Princess of Wales was photographed alongside her husband, Prince William, in Tobermory, Scotland, on a two-day visit to the Isles of Mull and Iona. The couple, who just celebrated their 14th wedding anniversary on April 29, was photographed in coordinating blazers and button-downs, with Kate Middleton donning a little something extra. The mom-of-three wore two sentimental pieces of jewerly from the brand Daniella Draper.
One piece, a gold alphabet necklace, features G, C and L charms for Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, while the other is engraved with their initials alongside three diamonds.
The necklaces are a subtle nod to her little ones, especially with the kids remaining in school back in England. While Kate's custom pieces are estimated to be worth £495 ($913 CAD) and £1,300 ($2,398 CAD), we found several dupes for less that would be gorgeous Mother's Day gifts.
With Canadian Mother's Day fast approaching (Sunday, May 11), you'll need to act quickly if you want these gifts to arrive on time. Keep scrolling to shop the royal-inspired edit.

Bella Hadid Convinced Me to Buy 501 Levi's Shorts on Amazon
Aside from the fact that Bella Hadid is a super rich supermodel with a cowboy BF who looks like he galloped straight out of a smutty beach read, I can sooo relate to the Kin Euphorics co-founder. I, too, have dyed my brunette hair a blinding blonde and think women shouldn't have to work on their period. We're two peas in my (delulu) pod. And while her wardrobe might occasionally lean unrelatable—she is still a super rich supermodel, after all—her latest look is not only totally accessible, but has convinced me to finally buy a pair of 501 Levi's cutoffs for myself. Bella was photographed making a quick pit stop to pump gas (see, relatable queen, told you!) in Aspen on Sunday, wearing a medium wash of the style with Classic Micro Uggs, a casual tee, and red varsity jacket. Though, TBH, I don't know her exact shade, I found a pretty (if not exact) match for her shorts on Amazon—and they're only $34. The universally flattering summer staple has that lived-in vintage feel but with a little update from the OGs. The style has a waist-defining high rise fit and 100% cotton fabric that won't stretch out two sizes too big after just one wear. But, even though they hold their shape well, they still have just the right amount of give so you're not uncomfy. Thousands of shoppers raved about the denim shorts. "This is my first pair of Levi's or shorts without stretch so I went through hundreds of reviews to settle on a size and these are perfect," one customer said, before adding that "they make [their] legs look longer" and are "surprisingly comfortable too." Another said that the "fit is amazing" and they're "snug in all the right places without being too tight." Others added that they're "always true to size" and "super flattering on any body type." If you want to complete Bella's entire look, you can snag her Uggs to pair with the denim and toss on a simple red bomber (maybe this one or this one?). I'm certainly going to just in hopes I manifest a cowboy BF of my own. Megan Schaltegger is an NYC-based writer. She loves strong coffee, eating her way through the Manhattan food scene, and her dog, Murray. She promises not to talk about herself in third person IRL.

'The Summer I Turned Pretty' Season 3: What we know so far about final season
'The Summer I Turned Pretty' Season 3: What we know so far about final season Show Caption Hide Caption Need a show to binge? These are the must watch shows this summer USA TODAY's TV critic Kelly Lawler breaks down the best TV shows you don't to want to miss this summer Belly and the boys will be returning to Cousins for the last time. Season 3 of "The Summer I Turned Pretty," a coming-of-age romantic television series based on the popular book trilogy by Jenny Han, premieres July 16 on Amazon Prime Video. The show, which takes place over many-a summer, follows the ongoing love triangle between Belly (Lola Tung) and brothers, Conrad (Christopher Briney) and Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno) as they navigate life and one immeasurable loss. The last time we saw Belly ("The Summer I Turned Pretty" Season 2 finale), she decided to put the past and her feelings for first love Conrad in the rearview as she focuses on her future and her budding relationship with Jeremiah. But the past, specifically Conrad, has a habit of reappearing when its least convenient for Belly, who tries but fails to keep her feelings at bay. Belly's left to make a huge decision, one that will change the course of their lives forever, by the end of the summer. While the essence of the original story has remained intact, Han is known for having a few tricks up her sleeve, and this season won't be any different. "There are going to be surprises," Han, creator and showrunner, told Entertainment Weekly on June 5. "There are the things that they know and then there are things they think they know, and then there's going to be, hopefully, things that surprise them." Here's what we know about Belly's "last" summer in Cousins, including how to tune in. Where will 'The Summer I Turned Pretty' Season 3 pick up? Many, but not all viewers, know what's going to happen next and how it's going to end. For those who haven't read the books or simply don't remember the Season 2 finale, the new season will pick up with Belly, who is looking forward to another summer in Cousins with Jeremiah after her junior year of college. (Seemingly everyone, except Jeremiah, knows that Conrad still has a place in Belly's heart.) "Her future seems set, until some core-shaking events bring her first love Conrad back into her life," according to official logline for Season 3. "Now on the brink of adulthood, Belly finds herself at a crossroads and must decide which brother has her heart. Summer will never be the same." While Belly's decision is the focus of Season 3, other characters like Taylor and Steven will likely have a moment in the spotlight.
