Truth be told though, I prefer the red and black combination although that could be because those are the colours of Canterbury, home of the Mighty Crusaders,Todd Blackaddar, Richie McCaw, Dan Carter . . . !

Catherine's hat looks VERY similar to the red hat Sophie wore to the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh's Diamond Wedding Anniversary Service in 2007. I am quite sure they are the same hat.
Sophie + Catherine
So even before Catherine joined the family, she and Sophie were swapping tips!

Kate's bow is smaller than Sophie's. So we have two different hats (black and red  )

I think it's more the angle the pictures were taken.
Sophie is looking straight ahead (or to the side), while Kate is looking down visually making the bow smaller.

Count me as someone in that camp. I love the red and black combination. Catherine looked so elegant and sophisticated. Of course for the Remembrance Day, that would not be a good combination, so black and black works.

Catherine looks really nice. Casual wear is her strongest suit.

was that picture taken around her usual shopping area of kings road?
i am also a fan of the coat.
i think there's no issue with her wearing black. i guess that makes her stand out less than wearing bright colours (which specially in nordic countries isn't the most common during autumn and winter), and enjoy her day out and about less.
with that being said, i wonder if the starbucks barista in the picture actually recognised her as she took her coffee :)

I honestly don't like the coat too much leather in too many bits ... it's neither one thing nor the other IMO Yuk

Only problem I have is why is this in Kate's Eveningwear thread when she's obviously out and about during the day?

I personally couldn't care less what Kate wears to walk her dog. Much like when she wore a purple jumper and jeans to do her grocery shopping at Tescos and people here complained she looked 'boring'.

I agree. Kate was not on an official engagement so could wear pretty much anything she wanted.
She's opted for comfortable, sensible clothing most of us would op to wear on a similar outing and similar weather conditions.
Of course, some of us may like the overall effect (I do), some may find it boring but at the end of a day, she's just walking her dog, not attending a gala.
