Tonight, the Duchess of Cambridge attended the Festival of Remembrance at the Royal Albert Hall alongside other members of the Royal Family.
The Festival of Remembrance is an annual televised festival created by the Royal British Legion. It commemorates those who have lost their lives in service of the their country. It takes place every year, the day before Remembrance Sunday. There are two performances: one during the day which is open to members of the public and one in the evening for members of the Legion, their families, officials and royals. There is usually a strong Royal presence during the evening event and tonight was no exception.
It is the first year that Prince William and Catherine have attended and it most likely because Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall are currently in New Zealand and Australia and could not attend. It is believed that it will now be an annual event for the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.
Price William could be seen talking to The Queen during the event.
The Queen looked lovely tonight with a very beautiful brooch that had poppies incorporated into it.
Prime Minister David Cameron and his wife, Samantha Cameron, were also in attendance.
The event has been held at the Royal Albert Hall since 1927.
It was once again a success.
The Duchess looked lovely in black lace tonight.
The Duchess chose to wear another Dolce and Gabbana dress tonight. It is the Dolce & Gabbana Lace Dress which was £1,670 and has now sold out online.
She also carried her Anya Hindmarch Maud Clutch in black satin which is still available for £475.
She wore her Jimmy Choo Aimee Court Shoes in black suede and have since sold out online.
The Duchess wore her diamond drop earrings which were a wedding present from Prince Charles.
She also wore her Buckley RBL Jewelled Poppy Brooch which is still available for £15.
The Duchess looked lovely tonight - it was demure and appropriate for the occasion. It is one of my favourite looks for the Duchess.

Duchess Attends 100 Women in Hedge Funds Gala..
Tonight the Duchess of Cambridge attended the 100 Women in Hedge Funds Gala.
This year it is in honour of the Duchess's patronage The Art Room.
The event was held at the Victoria & Albert Museum - my personal favourite museum in London!
It is the third time the Duchess has been in attendance. In 2011, the Duchess attended with Prince William in support of Child Bereavement UK - a charity that William is patron of.
She wore the Beulah London Isadora Dress.
In 2013, the Duchess attended in support of Action on Addiction - a charity that Kate is patron of.
She wore a Jenny Packham Off-the-Shoulder Silk Gown.
This time the Duchess chose a bold dress by Erdem. The Aloutte Printed Silk-Gazar Gown which is available at Net-a-Porter for £2,660.
This print is also available at Harrods in the form of the Ina Ohana Silk Midi Skirt (£799) and the Junia Embellished Crepe Dress (£1,775).
It is a designer she has favoured many times in the past. She first wore the Canadian label in 2011 during the couple's Royal Tour of Canada.
Since then she has worn the label for Trooping the Colour (2012) and during their Royal Tour of Singapore (2012).
During their Royal Tour of Australia (2014) she opted for an Erdem coat which she then repeated for the Tour de Yorkshire in the Summer (2014).
She also wore the label during her pregnancy with George (2013) and during her pregnancy with Charlotte (2015).
Although a lot of Erdem's dresses are bold and eye-catching this was possibly the most eye-catching dress the Duchess has chosen by the label.
The Duchess wore her Jimmy Choo Cosmic Pumps. Although they are not available anymore the latest version - Alex - are available for £495.
She paired the dress with her Anya Hindmarch Maud Black Satin Clutch which is till available for £475.
The Duchess wore her hair down and a pair of sparkling earrings.
They are thought to be the Queen Mother's Diamond & Sapphire Fringe Earrings.
She also wore the diamond bracelet that Prince Charles gave to her on her wedding day to Prince William.
I thought it was a different choice for the Duchess and way very bold but I thought she pulled it off well and looked just as elegant as ever! What did you think?

Catherine Visits Chance UK..
Today, the Duchess visited Chance UK. The visit was a chance for Kate to learn more about the work Chance UK does.
Chance UK is a charity which operates an early intervention child mentoring programme to change the challenging behaviour of primary school-aged children through intensive individual mentoring and family support. The programme works with children who are at risk of developing anti-social or criminal behaviour.
Kate met children enrolled on the Chance UK scheme.
The Duchess repeated an Orla Kiely dress for today's visit.
It is the Orla Kiely Pleated Dress with Embroidery.
She last wore the dress on an engagement in Dulwich with Prince Charles.
The Duchess also wore her black suede court shoes and carried her Mulberry clutch.
She finished off the look with her Annoushka Pearl Drop Earrings..
..and Cartier Ballon Bleu Watch.
The Duchess wore her hair up and I really liked this style on her.
Copy Kate
A grey pleated dress is a wardrobe staple. It will never go out of fashion and can be brought out again and again each year! The Phase Eight Abby Full Skirt Dress is a wonderful substitute and reasonably priced at £79.
The Duchess has another engagement this evening when she will attend the 100 Women in Hedge Funds Gala, so I will be back then!

Duchess Dazzles in Jenny Packham..
Tonight was the much anticipated Spectre World Premiere.
Daniel Craig and Lea Seydoux and Monica Bellucci (both Bond Girls in Spectre) were no doubt thrilled of the reaction that Spectre has received! I have to say I love what both ladies are wearing! It really was a night full of gorgeous dresses!
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Prince Harry were all in attendance for the new Bond film, which has been chosen as the Royal Film Performance for 2015.
It is the third Bond film to be chosen as a Royal Film Performance!
Prince William, Prince Harry and Catherine have chosen several charities to benefit from the film this year...
The couple walked the red carpet and both look very sharp for the occasion.
The three of them seemed to be enjoying the night and looking forward to seeing the film screening.
Inside the Duchess spoke to Daniel Craig and directer Sam Mendes.
This is the second Royal Film Performance that the Duchess has attended. The first was in 2013 when she attended the "Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom" premiere in December.
She wore the Roland Mouret Ella Gown and a Zara necklace for the occasion.
The Duchess looks absolutely stunning in a bespoke Jenny Packham gown.
The gown has a very daring sheer back!
The Duchess is carrying a new clutch also by Jenny Packham. I believe it is the Mini Casa Silver/Gold/Crystal Clutch which is available for £325.
The clutch also comes in a bigger size - the Casa Silver/Gold/Crystal Clutch which is available for £455.
She is wearing her Jimmy Choo Vamp Sandals.
The Duchess is wearing new earrings. They are Robinson Pelham's Pagoda Earrings which retail for £14,300.
It has to be one of my favourite looks for the Duchess.

Look elegant in a pale blue gown like Kate by wearing the Coast Lori Lee Gown. It is available for £185 and features the same sheer back and jewelled belt. Add a touch of sparkle by pairing it with the Coast Faith Sequin Minae Clutch which is £45. Finish off the look with a glittering pair of earrings like Accessorize Nova Semi Precious Earrings which are available for £19.
