Pippa Middleton Looked Stunning – No Surprise There

Pippa Middleton stepped out earlier this week, with boyfriend Nico Jackson in toe (and black tie!) to attend the Sugarplum Ball and she.looked.stunning.

Pippa opted to walk a bit on the wilder side with a sheer dress embroidered with a pretty design. While her sister, The Duchess of Cambridge (aka Kate Middleton) probably wouldn’t be allowed to pull off a dress that’s this risque without getting some serious flack from The Queen (you know, her grandmother-in-law), Pippa has the luxury of being incredibly wealthy, well-connected, and not a royal. Which means we get to see her in fabulous gowns and ensembles, with none of that “protocol” business getting in the way. (That is, if you believe “protocol” even really exists anymore.)

What did YOU think of Pippa’s gown – totally gorgeous, or a bit too risque?
