Royal Outfit of the Day: Kate at the Natural History Museum

ICYMI: We did a late post yesterday with the second tiara event of the Spanish state visit, see here.

The busiest royal July in recent history rolls on, so check back in with us this weekend as we cover Crown Princess Victoria's 40th birthday! Before we get to that, though...

You know, sometimes I'll see an outfit for sale and think to myself, one of those royals should really get on that. (This inevitably occurs when said outfit is waaaaaaay out of my price range, and I thus need someone else to wear it so I can enjoy it anyway.) Every once and a while...one of those royals actually does get on that.

The Duchess of Cambridge attended the reopening of Hintze Hall at the Natural History Museum yesterday.

I eyed this Preen for royal use a while ago, and here it is! She even wore it with a purple bag and sassy purple heels, bless. (This event was in the evening, and you can tell it was later in the day because she allowed herself to go *~cRazY~* and wore...open toe shoes. Thank goodness.)

Yes...the Liesl is strong with this one. (The Fug Girls beat me to my favorite reference, which only makes it more true!)
