SAY WHAT > Kate Middleton Committing a Fashion Faux Pas by Recycling Clothes?

Most people look upon the new Duchess of Cambridge with awe, or with jealousy, or more probably they don't care one way or the other. But hardly anyone has an issue with her famously frugal (relatively speaking) approach to fashion.

Hardly anyone, except for Kelly Osbourne. The 26-year-old co-host of E!'s "Fashion Police" says Kate Middleton's penchant for - gasp! - wearing the same outfit twice, is not cool at all.

She explained to Jay Leno that "In England they're like, 'Look how thrifty she's being, showing the British public that the royals are in a recession as well.'"

Osbourne, on the other hand, sees things differently:

"If I am going to be the future bloody Queen of England I'm gonna wear that dress once because I'm giving up the rest of my life, all of my privacy, at least I can get a new dress every day."

The newly minted Mrs. Wales recently landed on Vanity Fair's 72 International Best-Dressed List, for the second time in three years.

But it's not just the future queen that's got Kelly's ire up! No, former friend, singer Christina Aguilera, is on her naughty list as well. On "Fashion Police," she called Aguilera a "fat b----," after some unflattering recent photos of the diva.

Apparently the two have have some weight-related history. Osbourne, who's struggled with her weight, says Aguilera "called me fat for so many f***ing years so you know what? F**k you, you’re fat, too.”

    Kate is a graceful, warm and lovely woman; we can all admire her and be inspired by her. And I'll bet she enjoys wearing the clothes she selects. Andy Warhol said we all get 15 minutes of fame. Unfortunately, Kelly Osbourne is promoting herself and claiming way more than her share.

    I think its great that she reuses her clothes, besides being good PR for the royal family because she is saving money, even royality should be able to wear their favorite outfits several times.

    Just because you are living off other people's money, doesn't mean you can spend it any way you want. (Hear that Barack?)

    Kelly is so classy now, don't ya think?

    Since when is Kelly Osbourne even relevant anymore?
    What a jerk. And a complete diva. Kate Middleton was a normal person once, not a princess. Wearing outfits once before getting rid of them is called being a diva, with a head in the clouds.
    Then again, Kelly Osbourne is famous for.. Well, not a lot at all. Except the small entertaining fact that she is extremely crude and underdeveloped in the brain.
    Kate Middleton doesn't have time to listen to some useless drug baby. She's a princess. And she's lovely. I commend her for her down to earth attitude, and kindness.

    I applaud the Duchess for trying to be real to the people. Michelle Obama needs to take lessons from her in so many ways. As for as Osbourne who died and made her Queen of Fashion.

    Just because she's royalty that does not mean that she should only wear the same thing once. That is just nonsense to say that to anyone. I also highly suggest that no one take fashion advice from Kelly Osbourne to begin with.

    C'mon ... seriously! Just because they're famous doesn't mean they're not just people. We "recycle" clothes,so why can't they? Why should they spend millions of dollars a year just so they won't have to wear anything twice?

    Who the hell does Kelly Osbourne think she is?? She's a nobody who is only in the public eye because her father was a famous hard rocker. A different dress every day?? You pompous, spoiled, arrogant bitch!! Her rich-bitch attitude is the reason so many people despise royal families so much. Royal families think they're Gods. That's why the French people butchered their royal family 250 years ago. They couldn't stand them any longer. Can you imagine how much more intolerable Kelly Osbourne would be if she somehow managed to be a Royal, herself?? Thank God, we were spared that humiliation.

    I think it's very responsible of Kate to have a wardrobe that she can interchange and wear more than once. And since when did Kelly Osbourn become a fashion icon? Please...... I think that maybe the last person I would want fashion advice from!

    Some of us can't afford 365 different outfits per year.

    Some of us also like our clothes enough that we WANT to wear them more than once.

    For some of us it's a chore to pick out clothes every day. I can't even imagine trying to wear something new every day.

    And what if you just really, really like the way you look in something?

    For goodness sake please leave her alone! We don't want a repeat of what happened to Diana. So long as the Dutches looks presentable what does it matter if she wears clothes more than once? It just goes to prove that she's sensible and not a stupid clothes horse who thinks she's better than everyone else.

    Kelly Osbourne is the last person to take fashion advice from.
    And for God's sake, who the hell is she judging? Kate has always been a well dressed, elegant lady, and I have seen many many celebrities wearing a dress or a top more than once. Get a life, Kelly loser.

    I think it's a horrific waste to only wear something once, no matter how much money you have. It's a refreshing change to have someone who acts like more like a real person than "a royal"

    brilliant. In these hard economic times, I find it fabulous the HRH Kate DOES wear her clothing again. And she doesn't only wear high end, she actually has regular brands-ALSO a good move in hard economic times.

    Bravo HRH Kate, and Boo, hiss hiss BOO on kelly.

    She's just wearing the same outfit more than once, maybe it's a nice outfit.
    There are worse crimes against fashion, like socks with sandals.
