Canada tour- Day 2, Outfit 1: Canada Day!!

As Canada celebrates it's 144th anniversary, the royals continue their tour. Kate wears(right now -->watch the live stream on CBC) the same Nanette dress by Reiss that we've already seen on their engagement portraits, red Albini Square Cut Court Shoes(£54) from Hobbs and Anya Hindmarch fan clutch and a maple leaf hat by Sylvia Fletcher at Lock& Co. She also recycled her necklace that we already seen on a 2010 wedding and her maple leaf brooch is landed by the Queen to Kate.(HM the Queen wore  it on her 2010 Canada tour the last time)

The wedding of Sam Waley-Cohen

Just hours after the Trooping the Colour parade Kate managed to look still good, accompanied by her sister, Pippa at Sam Waley-Cohen's wedding to Bella Balin today, on 11th of June.

Kate wore the same hat as on the parade, but changed into a black& white spot-pattern Zara dress (that she have already worn, back in 2007) and as this day was a recycling day, she wore the same pair of Links of London earrings as on the Ark Gala and the same clutch that we've seen on the Obama meeting.

Pippa wore a lime-green coat over a dark dress and a black hat and they wore almost identical black Prada shoes.

Wedding bells (not for Kate) Part 1

I'm gonna start a series, that will focus on the weddings that Kate attended since her relationship to Prince William.

First up is the wedding of Rose Astor and Hugh Van Custem on the 4th of June, in 2005, held in Oxfordshire. She wore a black and white ensemble and a cross in her neck, although she just confirmed (secretly) this March

two opinions on her confirmation:

Kate Middleton's statement of faith is bold, not dutiful 

The cost of Kate Middleton's confirmation
