Cute, semi casual outfit for the duchess. A slightly fuller face suits her well.

That is what 3 months of vacation and a couple of inyectables do for you .
DeleteShe looks lovely.
The real deal.
As always very properly well dressed for the occasion.
ReplyDeleteWell said!
DeleteSpontaneous and good.

Is Catherine that tall? Or is the female soldier so petit?
ReplyDeleteI think she's 5'10 and the heels add afew more inches...hence she's towering over the female soldier....
DeleteBoth
DeleteBeautiful Duchess Catherine!

Tenue adéquate pour cette visite ; même si elle porte un élégant blazer croisé, je le trouve quand un petit peu trop long - Très joli le style de ses boucles d'oreilles déjà portées !
ReplyDeleteGreat blazer and trouser outfit. Love the bag too. I am loving her very natural makeup, she looks great. These aren't my favorite shoes of hers, but that's a tiny thing.

I admire her dedication to the organizations she supports. She is dressed appropriately for the occasion, and looks lovely. Hats off to the troops at Brize Norton for their work in aiding the evacuees.
ReplyDeleteThis outfit is very nice. She looks great and it's nice to see her in some pants that don't appear so tight. Very elegant and appropriate for the function.
ReplyDeleteAlso, being a female on the tall side myself (5'8 and 3/4 to be exact) I love it when we wear heels of any height that suits our fancy that day. Just because the majority of the rest of you are only knew high to a duck doesn't mean we have to stay flat on the ground. ;D

I chuckled at the duck imagery. At a “towering” 5’-9” myself, I’d blend into the tall club with Kate, Max, Mathilde and Charlene. If only I could persuade them to lend me a tiara or two…sigh.

Bepa, I'm sure that your smile outshines any tiara!
DeleteLove the jacket. The pants look great.the blouse underneath jacket is simple ,& elegant. Kate did well & pulled this off fantastically both hair, shoes & bag look great. Kate has nailed it. The outfit looks so European just love it. Mary I
ReplyDeleteThis jacket is not her best colour, she is looking very pale, something is just not right in her face. Her makeup is not showing up because of this colour, or she has very little on?
ReplyDeleteI think her navy trouser are very nice on her, she is tall she can carry it, it's the jacket that is not the perfect colour for her.
She does not carry a handled bag comfortably, they always look awkward on her, especially smaller ones, she is better with a larger bag or a clutch.
She does not look her sparkly self today.
Great to see her after so long. The semi casual look is appropriate for the event and all the pieces are fine but I look forward to seeing her in something brighter and more formal. It was obviously windy so I guess a dress would have been difficult!
ReplyDeleteI like the outfit. The hair needs sorting out; perhaps the sides need to be pulled around to the back of the head; nothing more annoying than hair flicking across someone's face. The handbag seems inappropriate; she is not here to buy something.
ReplyDeleteCasual outfit and she looks so natural and beautiful with less make up.

To me, this is a very functional outfit but also a very drab outfit.
ReplyDeleteThe only thing that makes it attractive is that it is worn by an attractive person.
I'm not crazy about the long column of black, thanks to the high waisted trousers that thankfully the jacket breaks up when it is buttoned. Again quite functional, but drab/boring. The pieces would look better paired with other things. Nice to see Kate though.

Classic outfit, lovely, fits the occasion, and enhances Catherine's beauty and grace. jj
ReplyDeleteThe people she met are all dressed in the same colour. Mostly camouflage, some blue. I am quite sure the "drabness" ist something she wanted, no need to wear something bright wenn all the others cannot. (-Ann)
ReplyDeleteIf I had one tiniest quibble ! It would be her beautiful hair ! If out on duty in the open air, a ponytail would have been better choice ! Stops the hair blowing into her face ! Other than that, I thought she looks great ! Good to have her back on duty after the summer break ! Ana
