Royal Tour of Canada - Day 1

The Cambridge's have officially touched down in Canada this afternoon.

The Duchess carried Princess Charlotte and Prince George held both of his parent's hands as they disembarked from the plane.

It is the first tour where both Prince George and Princess Charlotte are present. Prince George joined his parents in 2014 for the Royal Tour of Australia and New Zealand but this is Prince Charlotte's first royal tour.

They were welcomed by Prince Minister Justin Trudeau and his with Sophie.

They then travelled to Government House where they left the children with Nanny Maria. The family will be based at Government House for the duration of their trip.

The Duke and Duchess then took part in an official welcoming ceremony at the British Columbia Parliament Buildings.

They laid a wreath at the Cenotaph.

They then signed the visitors book.

They then returned to Government House where they posed for an official photo with Prime Minister Justin and Sophie Trudeau.

The Duchess's first outfit of the tour has to be one of my favourite looks of all time and I can't wait to see what else she has in store for us! She wore a bespoke fitted dress by Jenny Packham in a beautiful shade of blue. The colour blue is actually one of the colours of the flag of British Columbia.

It is no surprise that Kate wanted to pay tribute to their destination in her outfit and her hat followed suit. Kate's Lock & Co bespoke hat featured maple leaves and was in a matching shade of blue.

Kate also wore The Queen's Maple Leaf Brooch that she wore last time she visited Canada and that The Queen has always worn for her Canadian visits.

Kate wore her Gianvito Rossi Suede Pumps.

She carried her LK Bennett Nina Clutch.

She completed the look with her G. Collins & Sons Tanzanite Earrings.

Prince George wore the Pepa & Co Plaid Shirt, Pepa & Co Sweater with Wooden Buttons and Pepa & Co Navy Shorts. He also wore navy socks and Startrite John Navy Blue Leather Classic Lace Up Shoes.

Prince Charlotte wore a beautiful blue and white dress that has not yet been identified. She also wore M&H Mercedes Shoes and Amaia Kids Bows.

It was a great first day and has no doubt got everyone excited for the rest of the tour!
