While all of us were huddled by the Christmas tree (or in bed, at the movies, eating dim sum etc.), the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were out and about in Norfolk, England as per tradition. This year, 30 members of the Royal family, including Prince Charles, the Duchess of Cornwall, Prince Harry and Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, celebrated with the Queen at Sandringham. They were also joined by the Middletons, who arrived at Kate and William’s new country mansion Anmer Hall last week to spend quality time with Prince George and his sibling, Baby Bump.
The Royals made their annual walk to church on Christmas Day, chatting with fans, many who were hoping to meet the little prince. “I’m sorry we didn’t bring George but you would have heard him in the church,” Kate reportedly said.
For the occasion, the Duchess wore a brown and cream checked double breasted coat by Moloh, which she paired with her brown Hobbs shirt dress and Emmy pumps. She also brought back her Locke & Co. pillbox hat (adorably named after Betty Boop) and Catherine Zoraida gold leaf drop earrings.
To be clear, you were wearing an ugly Christmas sweater and/or sweat pants, right?
