Kate’s outfit:

The Duchess dressed top-to-toe in a festive green shade to mark St. Patrick’s Day. Of course, green is a colour long associated with Ireland.

  • Earrings – presumably emerald and diamond. Kate’s owned them for some time. Nothing further is known about the earrings, sadly.
  • Brooch: Gold Cartier Shamrock Brooch. This piece used to belong to The Queen Mother.

    Good Hair! Kate’s hair looks perfect with the Lock and Co. hat. I love the earrings and the color of the coat. Sometimes, I wonder what Kate does with the flowers she has been presented at the event. Princess Diana would gift hers on the way home at times. Anyway, a talented floral designer did a lovely job on the flowers.

      I noticed the flowers too, they were beautiful, weren’t they? I’m sure I’ve heard they go to charity in the past.

    Duchess normally never steps a foo wrong but this coat looks like a fascist uniform. Not a good look, I hope she will get a new stylist
