Kate Middleton Turns Heads in Aquamarine Dress at Trooping the Colour
Last year, all eyes were on Kate Middleton at Trooping the Colour as she made her return to public life following her cancer diagnosis. Things have gone back to status quo this year, though the Princess of Wales has somewhat scaled back her public engagements. When she announced in January she was in remission, Kate wrote, 'I remain focussed on recovery. As anyone who has experienced a cancer diagnosis will know, it takes time to adjust to a new normal. I am however looking forward to a fulfilling year ahead. There is much to look forward to. Thank you to everyone for your continued support.' At Trooping the Colour today, Kate looked lovely in an aquamarine Catherine Walker dress coat that feature ivory contrast lapels and cuffs. She also wore a matching wide-brimmed hat by Juliette Botterill. She accessorized with Queen Elizabeth's Bahrain Pearl Drop Earrings, which Kate frequently wears—most recently during the Qatar State Visit and on Remembrance Sunday. She also had the the Irish Guards Regimental Brooch pinned to her jacket. In the parade, Kate rode in the Ascot Landau carriage with her children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. Prince William, meanwhile, rode on horseback. Since marrying Prince William in 2011, Kate has not missed Trooping the Colour. Today's outfit is also a monochrome bright color, opting for a new shade, and is notably not a rewear. Kate, a longtime fan of Catherine Walker, has only worn the brand one other time to Trooping—back in 2015. Kate has been on a repeat streak lately, opting to pull items from her closet instead of debuting new clothes. For example, last month at a Buckingham Palace Garden Party, she rewore the butter yellow Emilia Wickstead dress she last wore during Queen Elizabeth's Platinum Jubilee in June 2022. At a concert celebrating the 80th anniversary of VE Day, she rewore the white Self-Portrait dress and a five-strand pearl necklace from jeweler Susan Caplan that she debuted earlier this year. In February, she went deep into her archives to rewear a coat from 2007. You Might Also Like 12 Weekend Getaway Spas For Every Type of Occasion 13 Beauty Tools to Up Your At-Home Facial Game

Kate Middleton Stuns in Chic Olive Power Suit by Victoria Beckham (& Pays Tribute to Queen Elizabeth)
Kate Middleton has delivered so many winning fashion looks that it's hard to keep track. In the past week alone, I saw the Princess of Wales don a flattering polka dot dress by Alessandra Rich, a plum-colored coat dress by Emilia Wickstead and a gorgeous all-white ensemble. Now, the royal is turning heads in a sleek power suit—complete with a meaningful accessory. This week, Middleton attended the British Fashion Council's British Design Ceremony at 180 Studios to honor creatives and present the Queen Elizabeth II Award for British Design. For the occasion, she wore an olive green suit by Victoria Beckham, featuring a double-breasted blazer with tortoiseshell buttons, and high-waisted pants. She donned the suit with a ruffled white top and completed the look with beige heels.

The princess also accessorized with Bahrain Pearl Drop Earrings, which previously belonged to the late queen. Aaron Chown -The pieces feature Bahraini pearls and diamonds, and the late queen originally received these earrings as a wedding gift from Sheikh Salman bin Hamad Al-Khalifa, the ruler of Bahrain, in 1947. She wore them on several occasions, so you may recognize them in several of her portraits.

CHRIS JACKSON/POOL/AFP via Getty Images Middleton's choice of earrings was fitting for the British Fashion Council Foundation's Event, considering that she presented the Queen Elizabeth II Award for British Design to this year's winner, Patrick McDowell, founder of his namesake label. In addition, the royal toured design spaces with McDowell to learn about the U.K.'s thriving fashion industry and how their sustainable designs are created.
