Middleton's a bit littler.

As previously reported on Us Weekly, Kate Middleton shopped for honeymoon gear in London's Kings Road neighborhood on Tuesday -- checking out mid-range items like a $105 Tropical Bird Print Dress at the store Warehouse. See more photos from Kate's shopping trip.

PHOTOS: Copy Kate's style!

New pics of the 29-year-old Princess-to-be's day out reveal a slimmed-down look for Prince William's love, set to wed on April 29. Middleton smiled her famous grin on the windy day, wearing a blue wrap dress that showed off her increasingly petite frame.

An athlete all her life, Middleton has been getting in even better shape for her nuptials with regular workouts at London's posh Harbour Club, which costs $3,500 to join.

But don't worry about Middleton overdoing it, a palace aide tells Us. "Kate's not on a diet," the source says. "She's not been trying to lose weight. She's a healthy girl who loves her food and doesn't count the calories. Because she's always been rather sporty, her metabolism is naturally quite high."

Adds the insider: "Staying in shape is important [to Kate], and she does exercise, but this isn't to get smaller."

The demon is a tramp.

So basically they took a beautiful woman who looked wonderful before and changed her into an anorexic skeletin. Why in the world would anybody think that she looks great, is beyond me.

She looks way too thin now, almost anorexic, and looked healthier before

I think she is beautiful! This is a "LADY" with class. Unlike all the w****s in this world. Her style is totally like my style personally. Her weight is perfect right now too! I wish her and Prince William all the happiness and best of luck! I am happy to see people in this world that are class acts. There are too many people in this world that are nothing but trash and need to fall off the face of this earth

@Heather: I said "eating enough food" to maintain her past figure. I said the stress was getting to her which for some people, means appetite reduction. @Katie: How was I hateful and foul-mouthed? I love Kate. I disagreed with her handlers saying a bunch of "crap" about her eating plenty and working out which is causing her to lose weight. I wasn't bad mouthing Kate at all. Maybe you ought to think for a minute before you criticize someone considering you are totally wrong.

I'd guess she's probably losing weight unintentionally with the stress of the wedding. She's probably so busy that she's not stopping to eat as much as usual. After the wedding she'll probably go back to her normal weight.

She is so classy looking. She needs a few pounds back tho.

This is what happens when marrying up. Do you remember Lady Di? After the wedding she started to have weight problems, was too thin, then Victoria Beckham,now Kate. The only exception was Fergie who became really fat after the wedding and everybody started to insult her for her extra meat. Becoming rich and royal do a number on their weight. Thinness is classy in their lingo.

Oh my gosh!Kate looks too skinny. Prefer her with more meat on her. Hope she is not going to be another Victoria Beckham. How awful!!

I agree with some others. I REALLY hope she puts back on about 10 pounds and puts some of that lovely English rose back in her cheeks. Her body used to be so great and athletic--what legs! Right now I can count her upper ribs and her face is gaunt. Please Kate--go back to beautiful not boney.

Hopefully she'll be more relaxed after the craziness dies down after the wedding. I think she's pushing it a bit...she has the ropey/veiny look in the arms that Jolie gets when she's scary-skinny. It doesn't look good and she's never had that look before from pics I can remember at least.

Shannon Hopp Wright - are you related to Shannon Burmatoff? You sound just like her. Hateful and foul-mouthed.

Nerves can do that, and she knows she will be seen all over the world, they say possibly by a billion people. I bet it will be exhausting.
April 20, 2011 - 3:29pm Gilkana Molina Ribera
even if she isn't trying to slim down for the wedding, nerves can do that do you close to your wedding day...
