A Fashionable First Engagement for Kate

Kate Middleton embarked on her first official engagement with Prince William today giving her a preview of what life will be like after the Royal Wedding.

The couple braved the blustery winds and grey skies on the Welsh coast to visit an RNLI lifeboat station in Anglesey close to where the Prince is based as a search and rescue pilot.

Kate wore a handcrafted, chocolate-brown Vivien Sheriff headpiece. It was decorated with military buttons and pheasant feathers.

Her previously worn three-quater-length beige coat, with brown trimmings is of unknown origin. She also wore a black scarf, brown tights and black suede Aquatalia by Marvin K. ankle-boots ($398). http://www.aquatalia.com/products/Boots/ROYAL/black+nappa+suede/162.html 

She wore her hair tied up in a stylish pony tail which she has rarely been photographed wearing.
