We’ve already told youhow to dress like a royal, and now it’s time to celebrate like one. If you can’t quite swing the airfare to Windsor and aren’t otherwise engaged, we suggest a proper watch party in the comfort of your own home. Houston anglophiles are lucky for British Isles, the darling Rice Village shop that sells treats and novelties from across the pond, and there are yet more locally available goods to toast the happy couple tomorrow morning, too. So grab your fascinators, put the kettle on, and set your alarm–televised coverage begins as early as 4 a.m. here in the States.

Abby Ledoux traded Canada’s border for Mexico’s when she moved to Texas from northwestern Vermont in November 2017 to join the staff at Houstonia.
An alumna of Emerson College’s journalism program in Boston, Abby was previously associate editor of three weekly newspapers in her home state of Vermont. There, she covered everything from Bernie Sanders to the heroin epidemic and won numerous state and regional awards for her work, including the Vermont Press Association’s 2014 Rookie of the Year. She was also an investigative reporting fellow at the New England First Amendment Coalition.
Today, Abby is excited to explore Houston’s vibrant, diverse culture (and shopping scene). Aside from fashion and design, she’s passionate about politics, hip hop and Mexican food. She believes leopard is a neutral and red lipstick can fix almost anything.
