  2. I can't seem to figure it out, but lately there's something about Kate that looks different.

    1. She is probably a lot more comfortable and confident. She kind of radiates this queenly elegance

    2. She looks more at ease in her role. She seems to be happier and more relaxed. I attribute that to no longer having all the public’s eyes on her now (she’s sharing that with Megan) and with the confidence that having 3 babies can bring.

    3. I've been thinking the same.

    4. Anon and shinystuffbuff, no that's not what I meant. To me she looks different physically.
      If anything, I actually think she looks less happy. Something just seems off about her.

    5. I think her hair is some shades brighter and returned to blow dry-thank God! Blow dry makes her hair voluminous on the scalp either. When she uses curling irons her hair is flat on the top and the curves stick together and makes her look older-in my opinion.

    6. Blair, that is extremely harsh and unfair. I think she looks terrific.

  4. Love the jacket - and it looks like she had a great time. Wonderful cause, of course. I am very happy Will and Kate support physical activities - especially for young children. Way to go!

  5. Kate looks amazing, IMO. Not body shaming, but I think this proves that a skinny jeans a turtle neck is best done by a lean, tall woman. She looks fabulous.

  6. Glad Kate is on the job again. I like the Blazer and top but not the skinny jeans, For at home OK but not for an event, but the again it is a casual event. But she looks good.

  8. Great to see Duke & Duchess of Cambridge. She is beautiful, as always! And they are so good with children.
    But I still hate (ALL) skinny jeans with a flaming passion! : )
    I think maybe a more colorful top instead of the head to toe black without that smart jacket...

    1. Jo, agree about the colour. Why all that black? But of course she looks gorgeous as always!

    2. 100% with you on the skinny jeans, Jo. :-)

      Delighted to see the Duke and Duchess out and about again and I like the outfit ands sadly accept that the skinny jeans are at least appropriate for the event. A newspaper article article which claimed that because the jacket is Canadian, Kate was taking style tips from Meghan had me speechless with rage. Kate needs no style tips to always look smart and appropriate (though there was that dreadful Erdem dress........)

    3. Yes, AnnieM, saw the same stupid article and felt the same. Kate has worn classic jackets like this many times in the past, no tips needed.

    1. She's very thin - a mother of three! But I think she is a very slim person and probably that black outfit accentuates that.

      Delete
    2. I agree, Gabriella. She looked so wonderful during her pregnancy with a bit of weight. I was hoping she would not go back to this extreme thinness. I guess it's OK if she's healthy but I winced a bit when I saw her.

    3. i agree. a fuller figure suits at her age

  10. Kate was so cool and lovely today! She looked great too!

  11. Catherine looks great today, healthy and happy. Love the all black with tweed type jacket, classy!

  12. She looks nice with this outfit. But I don't like the boots.

  13. She’s slim, but look at her mother - it’s in her genes :-)

  14. I rather like this outfit with the jacket, however without it it just looks like a body suit, no big deal since she is just playing & exercising with the kids. I do like skinny jeans when properly paired and she definitely looks good on them.
    Kate has always been thin, now, I assume that is part genetics, part a good diet and exercise, I think she looks lovely now as well as when she was pregnant.
