No, she'll be giving a speech at EACH on Monday 19th.
 
I loved the gray Orla Kiely dress. The embellishment along the neckline was very charming. I must say though, I'm envious of her ability to wear pantyhose that don't look like pantyhose. I know she's wearing them, because them's the rules, but you can't tell she's wearing them. Some women think nude pantyhose must be shiny, or sparkly, or have some kind of finish to them that looks like you slathered your legs in grease before you left the house.

I can't ever find a pair that look the way hers does. *sigh*
 
She's got to be wearing nude hosiery with a matte finish because you just can't see it at all.
 
That's what I like about them. I hate having to wear hose the few times I year I have to put them on, and I'd love to have a pair that makes it appear that I'm not wearing any at all.
 
I honestly thought she wasn't wearing any, but given the time of year and the event I didn't think that to be.
 
So I got some info about tomorrow Catherine will be at the parade at 12(I'm assuming Uk time) which would be I think 4am PST/7am EST

Oh, I'm really looking forward to following this engagement. I hope she wears something green :lucky:. It's a lovely gesture too, since she'll be visiting the Irish Guards (or at least I think that's the regiment she'll be visiting).
 
oops my bad I forgot about the time change so actually it'll be 5am PST/8am EST
 
it's great to see kate getting involved with the olympics and teamGB! i wonder if she's planning to frequence up her engagements on it as we get closer to the games.

This is also from Majesty, thanks to twitter.

Some 450 soldiers will march onto the parade square in full ceremonial uniform of scarlet tunics and bearskins. The Guards will be accompanied by the regimental mascot, Conmeal, an Irish wolfhound, who will also receive his own sprig of shamrock from the Duchess.

The engagement includes a private meeting with senior personnel in the officers’ mess; the St Patrick’s Day parade at which the Duchess will present shamrock to 40 officers and warrant officers, who will then issue it along the ranks; HRH meeting members of the QS club, the Regimental Association and the Mini Micks cadets on the parade ground following the parade; HRH being photographed with 100 sergeants and then with 40 officers; HRH visiting 300 guardsmen having lunch in the dining room; and a private meeting with past and present serving officers and their families. The engagement will finish with a private luncheon with officers at the barracks.

^Oh great thank you I didn't know all those details. Well I'm off to bed once again this engagement is too early in the morning for me to take part so I'll catch up once I wake up.
 
Luckily today's my one day off so i'm going to try and keep up to date with the news, twitter is being my usual friend and hopefully reuters will upload a live video link.
 
That's awesome thanks in advance for the updates!

Ok last little update from me. Mark Stewart says it's a very grey wet day and hopes the Duchess wears something colourful. Mentions this was one of the Queen Mum's fave jobs of the year

Kate is handing out the shamrock in Aldershot now. She's wearing a dark green coat dress with a belt. She's wearing a brown furry hat. Hair is down.
 
It has begun, Kate for one is absolutly superbe. She wears a green coat (same color she wore with the Queen in Leicester last week), a so gorgeous hat (nearly the same Princess Mary wore once). I really love the whole look. Total success.
 
EIIR bravo ... you beat me! Isnt she beautiful today? I'm sure you think the same as me.
 
She looks as if she's enjoying herself. I need to see more of the hat before I make up my mind.
 
from Paris I can follow the ceremony on Skynews. She gave a shamroch to a dog
 
The dog is the Irish Guards mascot - an Irish wolfhound called Conmael.
 
Duchess of Cambridge is wearing Emilia Wickstead coat and a hat from Lock.

This is the hat, costing £245 designed by Sylvia Fletcher for Lock & Co Hatters a family owned business in London.

Ah, I think you're right Rosapru, I just saw it very quickly on Sky News. I think it looks better from the front than the side.

Great photo's of the Duchess on St Patrick's day.
 
Rumours seem to suggest that Catherine will attend today's Wales vs France Six Nations match in Cardiff.
