I like both casual looks (minus the wedges).

I love that shade of blue on Catherine's coat, it suits her well. I usually don't particularly like pleated clothing, but Catherine managed to pull hers off. The decorations on her hat look a little out of place with it, but other than that, its quite nice. I doubt Catherine has dyed it (although what do I know?), perhaps she just really likes the style, so she decided to get herself another one.
I'm not so sure about Catherine's jacket she wore during her visit to the rugby stadium, although it looks comfy and warm. I much prefer it with Catherine's jeans than the model's skirt.
I like the outfit Catherine wore to the wine tasting, it looks good on her although the blouse is not really to my taste. This may have already been answered, but is her jacket the same one she wore to the marine event the other day? It looks familiar.

That's how I see it, too. Wickstead designs never seem to fit perfectly, there's always a flaw, imo.

The blue outfit with the fern brooch was knockout! I loved it. But...that green thing with all of the zippers looks like something from the 60s. Horrible. Someone set that thing on fire.

The wedges do not disturb be, but IMO she should wear them with another kind of trousers, not skin jeans.
Furthermore it sound stupid to me to have twice the same dress... they are millions of dresses in this word she can have...

Walking at the winery I thought she was going to trip and break her ankle in those wedges.

Anyway, I think she looks good with her long hair, an updo, even the ponytail aged her.
I think this calling for hair-up is getting too much, every single appearance I saw people complaining about her hair. It's the same as Queen Max case. Max always change her hairdos and did hair-up marvelously on frequent basis. But whenever she appear with hair down, people are complaining why no hair-up and commenting how badly damage her hair are. But royals also needs to let their hair rest too in between hairdo. So for this case, should she continue to do a hair up for every appearance with tons of hairspray or let her hair rest to recover a bit?

You and I are in agreement on this. Catherine is fortunate enough to have a luxuriant head of hair which complements her face. And I do think that the pulled-back or-up look makes her look older. She's still young enough to sport a look like this, and that is part of her identity. Time enough to wear it in an up-do in the decades to come. Most women would kill for hair like hers!

There were pictures from yesterday where the light was on her hair and it was a bit tousled with activity and it was just spectacular. I have complete hair envy over her hair. I hope she likes this slightly shorter length as much as I do!

Yes! With so many different styles, why get the same thing in different colors? I hope she did have the pink one dyed.

I'm the same. I think she looks great with her hair pulled back, and she'd do well to at least experiment with some different styles for different occasions, but as someone who has baby fine hair and therefore can't really do much longer than shoulder length, I never get tired of looking at all that healthy, thick hair! If I could grow hair like that I'd insist people follow me around all day and do nothing but take pictures of it.

With her hair pulled back for the jet boat ride she looked so much prettier. It gives you an idea what some different hairstyles would be like. With a hairdresser around, and so much hair to play with, I for one would like a little variety.
Loved the whitish, pinkish sweater, especially with those earrings. So nice! also the blue and white check shirt looks good.
Lose the way to skinney jeans and awful wedges, other bottoms would have suited her better. Cute grey sneakers too.

I took the decoration on the hat as a fern and an homage to NZ. so I was ok with it.

Christchurch today, and the town is a madhouse. Traffic is always horrendous but today is grid lock! Catherine's red and black ensemble is really hitting that 1940's vibe. She looked terrific. The whole kit, suit, clutch and fabulous shoes. And I say that with my hand over my heart and not just because I'm a dyed in the wool, one-eyed Cantabrian whose Rugby team just happens to be "The Crusaders". Red and Black rules!
