Kate Shops – and Snacks – in London

Is Kate officially in nesting mode?

If her recent trip to the Design Centre in Chelsea Harbour is any indication, the answer is yes.

The seven-months-pregnant Duchess of Cambridge, 31, was spotted shopping at the ultra-posh interior design center on Tuesday, where she checked out at least one fabric swatch, and took time to refuel at the public café, right alongside other shoppers.

"She just sat in the atrium like everyone else," an onlooker tells PEOPLE. "She was very polite and really nice – just totally normal. I didn't know it was her at first. I just thought, 'You look a lot like Kate Middleton.' Then it kind of dawned on me."

"She had a cappuccino and a banana muffin," adds the source. "It's not every day you see the future Queen of England sitting down in a café eating a muffin!"

In town filming The Internship, Owen Wilson made the rounds through Atlanta on Saturday.

Starting out at Perrine's Wine Shop during the afternoon, the actor and a small group of pals browsed the store's extensive French wine collection.

"Owen was dressed like an L.A. surfer, wearing shorts, a T-shirt and a trucker hat," a fellow shopper tells PEOPLE.

That evening, wearing the same ensemble, Wilson popped into Ecco, where he munched on the eatery's signature dishes, including fried goat cheese, a honey and black pepper appetizer and a big bowl of homemade pasta.

"He's practically tried the whole menu," an employee at the restaurant says of Wilson, who apparently eats there regularly when he's in town. "He's always pleasant to staff."

Kelly Clarkson Goes Jewelry Shopping – on Crutches!

Kelly Clarkson was able to find what she was looking for during a recent shopping outing, but not with ease.

The singing superstar stopped by Alisa Michelle jewelry boutique in Studio City, Calif., on Friday, where an onlooker tells PEOPLE she "looked uncomfortable," walking around the store on crutches with a sprained ankle.

Despite her apparent discomfort, Clarkson was far from a diva, refusing to let the people working in the store close it down for her while she browsed.

"She was very nice and respectful, and she turned down a discount," the source says of the Duets star, who purchased some custom pieces at the DIY bar, where customers can string their own jewelry with a variety of charms and chains, along with some necklaces and a cuff bracelet.

Clarkson, who stopped by with a female pal, wasn't the only celebrity to recently pop into the swanky establishment. Pretty Little Liars star Lucy Hale came in the next day and also bought some pieces from the DIY bar.

In a group of about 15 people, Jennifer Lopez, boyfriend Casper Smart and X Factor mentor L.A. Reid made their way into Blue & Cream's brand new boutique in East Hampton on Monday.

"They tried on sunglasses for over a half an hour," an onlooker tells PEOPLE, adding that they also checked out handbags and customized Havaianas. "Casper bought Jennifer a pair of the newest Brian Atwood stingray shoes and L.A. purchased his wife Erica a Tori Praver bathing suit."

Free from any security guards, the large group also headed across the street to the original Blue &Cream store, where Casper purchased some Oliver Peoples shades, and his lady love bought a pair from Stella McCartney.

"The [store] locked the doors for this shopping spree," the source says. "Onlookers sat outside and tried to get a glimpse of [Jennifer]."
