Are you sure the middle bits were interchangeable?

I think so? I've read about it either here (jewelry threads) or in an article about the earrings.

Not that we know of. The Queen has a pair that look very similar to these but are not the same. Those can have diamond drops, emerald drops or empty hoops. The ones Kate wore are a different pair that showed up on the Queen at an opening of parliment.

Post on Kate's: From Her Majesty's Jewel Vault: Diamond Pendant Earrings
And the interchangable ones: From Her Majesty's Jewel Vault: The Queen's Emerald or Diamond Pendant Earrings

Ah ok...thanks! I thought these were the interchangeable ones.

thin she looks beautiful in the red dress and I like it very much! But what is it with the men tights and balerina shoes with bow?

[Scarebaby]

I think those earrings, while beautiful, look very heavy and uncomfortable. I know I can't wear really heavy earrings without a lot of pain.

[royal rob]

I think earrings are like high heels too much pain for me

Great color but I must say its quite boring just because we have seen a very similar outfit earlier today and with open hair. A different hairstyle would've looked so much better and a brooch as well. The look looks uncompleted.

Better picture

[Lumutqueen]

Oops got the colour wrong, it's pink.

Thanks for the updated pic dazzling :)

I'd call that Magenta, which [correct me if i'm wrong] isn't a colour the Duchess has worn before ?

Here's a better picture of this really cute suit:

I love this suit and the colour is divine.

[Frelinghighness]

Great color and the skirt with the box pleats is good for her as it seems to add some weight

[Countessmeout]

I love the magenta color. Fresh and a great change for her.

That said Another cost dress? I am sorry but bored. And doesn't scream evening event. And after wearing a suit earlier, something less structured would have been nice.

It's not a coat dress. It's a jacket and skirt. ANd it's not very eveningy, but neither was the event. It was a seminar/conference for professionals. I assume the monday night spot was so it's after regular work hours, but it's a standard work event it seemed. So I thought the look fitting. It was a bit too similar to her earlier look in the day so I would have liked them more spread out on different days, but both looks were nice and professional.

I love the coat dress. Its a beautiful color.

Just saw from distance, looked like fiat dress. I actually liked it better as fiat dress. Seeing it up close see it us another peplum coat.

Honestly if it was a business day event, she should have just eith the red from earlier. They were so similar anyways.
