It seems like Kate Middleton has been pregnant for ages. With all the rumors and anticipation for the royal baby, it really feels like the mid-July due date has loomed over us for an entire decade. Regardless, Middleton is only days away from giving birth and she couldn't look any more regal.

How does the Duchess pull it off? The months leading up to having her first child [has the gender even been revealed yet?] she continued maintain her poise, beauty and still have time to pick out stunning outfits?

Most women, even you Kim Kardashian tend to dress down during their pregnancy. It's like an "I'm pregnant, I can wear a snuggie in public" kind of attitude. How does Middleton stay classy?

First thing Kate did was be herself. Pre-pregnancy Middleton would be seen wearing long-sleeved coats and simple dresses. The A-line coats she likes to wear shaped her baby bump beautifully. In fact a lot of people claimed Middleton has been anorexic through her pregnancy, not wanting to lose her petite shape.

To celebrate her mother in law, the Queen's birthday Kate wore a baby pink Alexander McQueen coat. That was the last time Middleton was seen in public before she retired temporarily on maternity leave.

Unlike some other pregnant celebs, Middleton was never "trying" too hard to remain edgy and "sexy". Instead the Duchess opted for classy, modest out fits that flattered her growing baby bump.

Sorry Kim, Middleton won this battle.
