Canada tour- Day 5, Outfit 1 Charlottetown

"The couple were on Prince Edward Island, the setting for one of Kate's favourite childhood books, Anne of Green Gables Set in the 1870s, the novel recounts the life and times of a feisty red-headed schoolgirl, Anne Shirley, who is adopted by brother and sister farmers in the mistaken belief they are taking in a young boy." -Dailymail-
Duchess dressed for the occasion in a nautical-style cream and pale blue cable-knit pencil (it must have been a man from Clarance house who thinks this is a pencil dress, it is really far, really from being pencil) dress by Alexander McQueen, one of her go-to designer since her wedding. Although a lot of sites said it is a dress designed by Sarah Burton we have to believe that it's the late Alexander McQueen's design as we could have seen it (a different colour version) on Sarah Jessica Parker in 2006 when he was still alive. She paired her sailor inspired dress with navy pumps, her Diana sapphire earrings and thank God she pulled her hair back which I think is so much better than her usual hairstyles.

Kate hands out operation medals

"The Duchess of Cambridge took on her first military role as a royal today as she handed out operational medals to members of the Irish Guards.
Alongside the Duke of Cambridge, who is Colonel of the Irish Guards, Kate presented medals to soldiers who have recently returned from serving in Afghanistan." -Dailymail-
Kate wore a navy Alexander McQueen PreAW11 dress in Windsor today(via Twitter) with a Rachel Trevor-Morgan hat. She reused(for the millionth time, like on her engagement tour in Anglesey and Lancashire, and on Epsom Derby) her Kiki McDonough citrine earrings and a gold chamrock brooch which was originally owned by the Queen Mother and we could also seen it on Princess Anne on St Patrick's day in 2009. She wore a gold linked bracelet with a circular tag engraved with the letter 'C' for Catherine which could be a Links of London one(no confirmation yet), but it would be great for copying Kate's style. Her blue shagreen Marano clutch (£995) is an Anya Hindmarch model(we've already seen her with a Hindmarch clutch with the Obamas). Her navy blue Prada pumps matched the colour of both her hat and coat.

Trooping the Colour outfit: Alexander McQueen

Yes, it is Alexander McQueen. Kate wore an Alexander McQueen coat (like on her wedding, she might be entering the world of couture?) to the Trooping the Colour parade today, costing €2.395. Unfortunately it is sold out in every online place I found.
