The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge visit …. Cambridge (for the first time)

In November 2012, William and Kate visited their “Dukedom” for the first time.  They visited the city of Cambridge to meet the mayor and representatives from a number of local charities.

The Duke and Duchess first visited the Guildhall where they met representatives from the Mayor’s charities,  Cambridge News Community Awards winners and other VIP guests.

Shortly after, the Cambridges headed onto the Guildhall’s balcony, where the crowd roared with wild applause.  As you can see, it was pretty windy!

Next, the royal couple conducted a walkabout through Market Square, before arriving at the Cambridge University Senate House.

Kate’s outfit:

Kate wore a light pink coat by MaxMara Studio.

It’s the “Belli” style.The coat is made from wool and cashmere and features a funnel neck and matching belt.  The coat originally retailed for £980 before going on sale for £784.  (It is now out of stock).

Kate paired the coat with an animal print dress, also by Max Mara.  You can see the print peeking out from underneath her coat in the following photo:

Here’s a closer look at the dress:

Kate paired the dress and coat with her brown suede Aquatalia ‘Rouge’ boots and her matching Emmy Shoes Natasha clutch bag (pictured below in “cinder” brown.  Kate owns a darker brown suede colour.)

The Duchess of Cambridge finished her polished look with a pair of sparkling white topaz earrings:

Regular readers will recognise them as the Kiki McDonough Grace style.
