Duchess Kate Takes Playful Lupo Walking While William Sleeps

Hello to you all,
I would like to begin by sincerely thanking all of you for your kind wishes, they are deeply appreciated. I couldn't help but take a moment to check in on the blog and to my amazement two sets of photos showing Kate walking Lupo have surfaced. It was revealed last week. photos of Kate walking Lupo were taken on the 15th, as to why they did not emerge until now, one can only speculate. Perhaps the publishers waited until Kate's solo engagements had finished?

Accompanied by a royal protection officer, Kate looked relaxed in light jeans and Barbour jacket. She wore her hair swept up into a ponytail.

The 30 year old appears to be wearing the Barbour Ladies Defence Jacket. (With many thanks to Christine) The olive jacket is currently on sale reduced from £199 to £149. It is described as

"Traditional Barbour wax, in a versatile field jacket. Flattering and easy fit. Perfect for outdoor adventures. 100% cotton Barbour Tartan lining. "

Kate's very cosy looking mocca boots are the Celtic Sheepskin Cabra Boots. (With thanks to the amazing Jolene) They are £170 and available in sizes 3-9. They are described as


"These sophisticated calf height boots are made from quality British sheepskin with an attractive two tone goat - hide cuff. Created in our Cornish factory, they have lightweight, flexible soles."

Kate was also photographed 'whistle training' her beloved cocker spaniel. To view the photos please vist the Daily Mail article.


However the playful five month old was having none of it. Instead he chased a crisp packet around Kensington Gardens throughout the outing :) It is rumoured William and Kate will be using Lupo as a gun dog. Over the years the couple have regularly been spotted hunting on royal estates such as Balmoral. A friend of the Cambridge's said 'William and Kate absolutely adore him'. Speaking of William, he was reportedly sleeping after his long flight while Kate took Lupo out.


I simply adore seeing photos of Kate with Lupo. He is an adorable puppy and it's wonderful to see Kate taking such excellent care of him. Kate wore the same Barbour jacket, with dark blue skinny jeans and trainers. Love her windswept hair.


The photos of Kate walking Lupo will feature in today's edition of The Daily Express.

Have many of you seen 'The Avengers'? I haven't yet but my sisters tell me it is one of the best movies of the year :) It is produced by Marvel and distributed by Walt Disney Features. The plot sees the director of a peacekeeping organisation 'S.H.I.E.L.D' recruit Iron Man, Captain America, Hulk and Thor to form a team to stop Thor's brother Loki from subjucating earth. The stellar cast includes Robert Downey, Jr. and Scarlet Johansson.

Kate looked casual and chic in a black gilet. Due to the quality of the photo and the fact we cannot see the front of the piece we cannot positively identify it. However it would seem highly likely it is the Temperly Leather and Shearling Contrast Gilet (With many thanks to Kate in Waiting) The piece is no longer available but was selling for £1250. Kate wore a black sweater underneath the gilet.

The Celtic Sheepskin Tosacana Gilet is an excellent alternative.

Kate wore her J Brand 811 Jeans. Kate wore the mid rise jeans three times during the Canada tour.

Kate completed the look with black heels and wore her hair half up, half down.

Yesterday Kate was spotted walking Lupo in Kensington Gardens accompanied by her brother James and the Middletons' dog Ella.

The lady who took the photo noted she did not see protection officers around. Perhaps they kept a small distance to allow the siblings a chance to chat privately?

Kate completed the look with J Brand jeans, Adidas runners and a knit hat.

Whilst Kate was walking Lupo, William and Harry visited Prince Philip in the King Edward VII hospital in London. The Princes looked in high spirits, no doubt William was happy because he  has passed his captaincy tests and is now qualified to command a Royal Air Force search and rescue helicopter. Until now William has only co piloted the aircraft. 


I'm delighted to report Prince Philip was released from hospital today. Philip turns 91 tomorrow and will be very pleased to able to celebrate at home with his family. Wishing him a very happy birthday.
