Kate spotted shopping on King's Road

Kate was, again, spotted out shopping. This time it was on King's Road. Accompanied by two plainclothes Scotland Yard protection officers, she stopped in at the Peter Jones department store in Sloane Square. Then she popped into Boots, where it is reported that she bought a couple of facial moisturisers from the low-cost Nivea range.

 

She dressed casually in white flats, her favorite skinny Hudson jeans and a cream scoop-necked sweater layered over a pale yellow tank. Kate carried her brown Prada 'Bowler' handbag (see picture below) in one hand and her shopping bags in the other. She could have been mistaken for any ordinary shopper.

Her chocolate locks were swept up into a low bun.

Kate's shoes have been ID'd (thanks to 'My Small Obsessions' on FB). They are by Russell & Bromley. As further details emerge, I will post.

Grocery Shopping in Anglesey

This morning, the beautiful Kate was seen grocery shopping on the island of Anglesey.

She was dressed down but still looks every inch the immaculately dressed Queen-to-be.  Kate wore her favorite brand of jeans -- a pair of faded black Hudson skinny jeans (£195), a long-sleeve white cashmere v-neck sweater topped with a green frilled shrug, and a pair of French Sole brown mock-croc ballet pumps (£92).

She’s wearing the same pair of Hope Egg earrings (Links of London £275) that appeared in the couple’s official engagement photo taken by Mario Testino. www.linksoflondon.com

Description from the Links of London Website "a very attractive and important symbol in Russian culture, traditionally given for birthdays, festivals, etc. This egg represents hope and new life and is decorated with white topaz and with white rhodolite. Sterling Silver with White Topaz."

Hudson jeans have long been a favorite of Kates' since she was first seen wearing them in 2008 at the Beaufort Polo Club, watching Prince William partake in a Charity Polo Match. The label is based in Los Angeles but Kate buys hers at Trilogy on Kings Road. Get your own pair at www.hudsonjeans.com 

Kate's ballet flats are by French Sole. They are the "India" style and have an elegant quarter inch heel.
