The Duchess chose another British label today - Goat. The Duchess wore Goat during her first pregnancy last year and back in June this year.
This time the Duchess chose the Wahsington Coat which retails for £680. Anyone love the fact that Prince William visited Washington DC today and the Duchess is wearing the 'Washington' coat? The coat has several military details in the cuffs with contrasting trims.
The Duchess also wore black tights again and her Episode Angel Pumps which are now sold out. The Duchess kept her hands warm by wearing her Cornelia James Imogen Pure Wool Gloves in Black, just like yesterday. They retail for £70.
The Duchess wore her hair in a lovely half-up style today.
She accessorised with her Annoushka Pearl Drop Earrings which are available for £1,090.

Meanwhile, Prince William flew on a scheduled flight to Washington DC where he met President Obama in the Oval Office of The White House. It is not the first time the Duke has met the President, last time was May 2011, shortly after the Royal Wedding, at Buckingham Palace.

For both afternoon and evening the Duchess elected to wear Tory Burch - an American designer I had said she might choose. She chose the Tory Burch Bettina Coat which is still available in some sizes on the UK website for £515.
The coat was very appropriate and had a lovely sparkly thread running through it which added a festive feel to the coat for this time of year.
The Duchess wore a roll-neck black top and black jeans underneath - which are likely to be J Brand, however, some people have asked whether they are soft jeans or trousers because of the soft fabric look of them. The Duchess also wore her Stuart Weitzman Power Pumps in black suede and carried her Mulberry clutch.
The Duchess wore a new pair of sparkly earrings which are still to be identified.
I loved Kate's outfit tonight and thought it was her best one so far. Many people have commented on how Prince William changed outfits but Kate did not - very unusual!
