Kate proves she is still thrifty at informal reception

After a hectic but exciting day the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were delighted to get a chance to relax at an informal reception for young Canadian volunteers at Rideau hall. The barbecue was moved inside due to the rain but it didn't dampen anyone's spirits. Today Kate opted for designer labels such as Ronald Mouret and Erdem, However at the reception Kate proved she is still thrifty by wearing a bird print Issa dress she has had since 2006, She last wore it the day before her wedding. Teamed with her hair in a demi chignon and Pied a terre wedges, Kate looked beautiful. Three looks in one day, Kate gets a 10/10 in the style stakes for understated elegance! Below the video shows Kate greeting Canadians at the reception, She is incredibly warm and friendly. If you watch the video, you will observe just how engaging William is taking an interest in each person he is speaking with. (So much like Diana) On another note, Today would have been Diana's 50th and I think she would be very proud of her son and his beautiful bride on their first tour!

Kate first wore the this dress in 2006, and again on the day before her wedding.
