Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge gave her first public address todaynearly a year after she married Prince William—at EACH’s Treehouse Children’s Hospice in Ipswich, England, an organization that supports children with life-threatening conditions and their families. She began her speech by thanking the crowd and giving a nod to her royal man, who she said would have loved the facility. “A view of his, that I share, is that through teamwork so much can be achieved,” she said. “What you have all achieved here is extraordinary.” For her wardrobe choice, she gravitated toward one of her go-to colors, sapphire blue (it matches her ring), and chose double-breasted dress by Reiss. And it looks like she pulled this one out of her mother’s closet—according to Kate Middleton Style, the dress dates back to 2008, and it was a piece her mother first wore to the Royal Ascot in 2010. Watch her entire speech above, and tell us what you think in the comments!

I really like her, and she has great taste in clothes!

Hmm not a fan of this particular dress. Don’t like the double breasted thing or the neckline. Usually I like what she wears but not this time.

I believe Kate Middleton is one of the loveliest women in the world. She has great taste in clothes and is a fashion trend setter all over the world.

Kate Middleton has set the standard for fashion wear all over the world. When she wears anything the public has not seen yet, they rush to the retailers and buy, buy, buy, whatever Kate is wearing. The look alike clothing does not last long on the racks.
