Whether you're watching the Platinum Jubilee on TV or you're lucky enough to be witnessing it in person you may have noticed Kate's stylish outfit as she waves from the horse-drawn carriage.
Dressed in a white long-sleeved collared Alexander McQueen coat dress for the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations this bank holiday you may recognize it from a previous royal outing. Kate wore the £3,000 dress last summer at the Eden Project for G7 reception.
Kate paired her sleek dress with a blue and white Phillip Treacy hat and one of her accessories was a sweet nod to her late mother-in-law.
The Duchess of Cambridge wore Princess Diana's diamond and sapphire earrings - jewellery the princess wore on a royal visit to Canada in 1983.
Today's celebrations mark the Queen's Jubilee history and have already included the Trooping of the Colour, and later will show the whole royal family on the balcony of Buckingham Palace.
Of course, Kate isn't shy about recycling her looks but normally opts for dresses, while the Duchess has go-to fashion brands for her dresses and undisputed classic styles.
