Kate Goes Shopping at Peter Jones After Triumphant Speech

Hello Kate fans,
We really are being quite fortunate with photos of Kate today. After the 30 year old's splendid first speech earlier today she changed into casual attire and enjoyed some retail therapy.

Kate spent over half an hour in department store Peter Jones on the Kings road before leaving with two large bags. I thought it was interesting that she carried her own bags. Despite her royal status and worldwide popularity she is very down to earth. Kate's shopping bags appeared quite full, From what we see Kate purchased lampshades. Kate has previously been spotted buying homeware there.

A look at the store.

Kate appears to be wearing the Emilio Pucci double breasted jacket she wore whilst visiting GB's hockey team. It is available for £1,145.00 at Selfridge's.

Kate kept warm wearing her Aquascutum Club Check Scarf. The pretty scarf is available for £85.

Duchess Kate was last photographed wearing the scarf in August, shopping at her local Tesco.    I adored this look and have been a huge of fan of wearing skinny jeans and London Sole ballet flats ever since.

Today's engagement marks the end of Kate's weekly appearances for a while. William will be returning from the Falklands any time now and Kate will resume life as a serviceman's wife in Anglesey. However I'm quite sure it won't be too long until we see her again, she was photographed walking Lupo last week and I expect those photos will surface sooner rather than later :)

A lovely photo of Kate playing hockey with Team GB graces the cover of Hello! this week. (I believe Kate is their cover girl on a weekly basis now :))

Hello

Should better photos surface of Kate's shopping trip I'll update the post. I'll be holding a poll on Kate's best solo engagement look in the next few days. Looking forward to seeing which outfit you choose!

Duchess Kate takes a shopping trip to Peter Jones UPDATED

Yesterday Duchess Kate was spotted shopping at a Peter Jones store in London. The home goods store is part of the John Lewis chain, A favourite of Kate's. She stocked up on essentials for Kensington Palace including pillows, bed linen and cutlery and other kitchen items. She left the store carrying her own shopping bags escorted by a security guard. They left in a range rover. Coincidentally the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge just donated a range rover given to them as a wedding present to Mountain rescue!

Duchess Kate wore light blue skinny jeans, her black ballet shoes, I believe they are her London Sole ones and a loose fitting cream peasant top. Duchess Kate wore her hair down with sunglasses. We rarely see Kate photographed wearing sunglasses. Would love to have seen the top from the front but from what I can see it looks quite interesting. Perhaps Whistles or Reiss? She always pulls off casual chic excellently and looks just like any other young wife out shopping.

The photos were taken mostly from behind. I imagine the photographer didn't want to be too intrusive or to interfere with her day. It is excellent to see photographers respecting Kate's privacy. Today is Pippa's 28th birthday, (Happy Birthday Pippa :)) perhaps Kate was out shopping for a gift for her sister? I imagine Pippa will have a family celebration so there may be more photos very soon!

UPDATE: It was confirmed that William and Kate did indeed celebrate Pippa's 28th birthday with her younger sister and Alex Loudon. Unfortunately no photos thus far but I'll keep a look out!
