Kate Middleton Presents Irish Guards With St Patrick's Day Shamrocks

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge continued an annual tradition on Tuesday. The royal couple attended the St Patrick's Day parade at Mons Barracks in Aldershot for a third year in a row and shock horror, Kate wasn't wearing green.

The duchess, who is eight months pregnant, was wrapped up in winterwear to present the Irish Guards with their shamrocks.

Her latest maternity outfit included a coat by Catherine Walker and a Lock & Co hat plus suede heels by Emmy London and pear drop earrings from one of her favourite jewellery designers, Kiki McDonough. Prince William, who is the current royal colonel of the Irish Guards, was dressed in ceremonial uniform.

This visit follows a busy week for Kate, who has made three other public engagements in recent days. She joined a host of royals at St Paul's Cathedral on Friday to honour Britain's Armed Forces who fought and died in Afghanistan. Two days earlier, she looked lovely in animal print for a trip to the Turner Contemporary gallery in Margate.
