Kate & Jackie

International Business Times wants to know if Kate Middleton is the new Jackie. We think there's potential, but we hope William has the sense to be more faithful than JFK. Let's check out the evidence:

The rings seem to be a great starting point as both are anchored by colorful gemstones - not just a traditional clear diamond. Bold, yet still classic. 

Lace was the most important ingredient of their wedding look and each chose to highlight the tiniest part of their bodies with a nipped bodice. Plus their veils blew in the wind emphasizing their already unarguable perfection. Sigh.

Both women know the power of a great trench coat.

They also know the strength of the skirt and blazer combo, but we do prefer Jackie's flats to Kate's suede boots.

Kate and Jackie are each aware of the rules of style when it comes to engaging with world leaders. Wear chic, well-fitted, neutral colors and you shall always impress. They've even got the same freaking pose.

Red is a stunning color on most women, and these two certainly know how to wear it.

And both know how to pull of a chic hat! 

Jackie O still conquers. If you're a regular reader, you know that Jackie is the ultimate style icon in our book. However, Kate has a very impressive roster of looks for such a young age. We look forward to seeing what she can do to change out the No. 1 spot on our list of style icons.
