Having grown up in the countryside, The Duchess of Cambridge (opens in new tab) is no stranger to chic outdoor style. And once again, Duchess Catherine has flexed her fashion credentials – this time on a visit to a scouts group in West London.
Catherine looked to be in her element during her visit with the Beaver and Cub Scouts at the 12th Northolt Scout Group in London on Tuesday.
The Duchess paired a pair of her old-faithful black skinny jeans with a pair of biker boots from See by Chloe (opens in new tab), for a day of card making and marshmallow toasting. She finished off her outfit with a gorgeous new purchase: a classic n (opens in new tab)ubuck leather waistcoat from Really Wild (opens in new tab), costing £495.

The Duchess of Cambridge loves to pair a gilet with jeans and boots for outdoor events, and this one from Really Wild is a classic take on the style. Made in London, it features an adjustable waistband so you can wear it nipped in, or loose and open like Catherine.
If you love the style, but the Really Wild gilet isn't quite in your budget, this panel waxed cotton waistcoat from Rydale (opens in new tab) is every bit as practical and chic. And it's now in the sale for just £15!
