Step out in style in Kate's

Chilvers
archery classes and now a six hour hike up a mountain, Kate's wardrobe has had to cover it all.
But even on this long trek she somehow managed to look put together and poised. And her hair is perfect!

Wearing skinny jeans, a white shirt and leather gilet Kate is elegant but practical, although we do worry she must have got a little hot. And check out her boots.
These Penelope Chilvers knee high numbers would more usually be seen down the King's Road but they've been re-purposed for a much more energetic activity.

A flat boot is always a style essential and as the Duchess is proving it's a versatile option too. So why not treat your feet to a pair now and click (right) to snap them up?
Wear over skinny jeans and leggings or work them with a floaty midi dress this season.

Kate teamed the boots with a country style checked khaki jacket and skirt, a striped shirt and a brown woven belt.
She later swapped the shirt for a t-shirt as she assisted at the Wild Thing clothing company stand with a friend.
She was first spotted £475 brown boots with a tassel detail on the zip at the Game Fair at Blenheim Palace in August 2004

The boots made another appearance exactly a year later as Kate attended the Gatcombe Festival of Eventing in Gloucestershire.
This time she paired them with a pair of blue denim jeans, a green v neck jumper and white shirt.
She wore a brown jacket and carried a bag in a matching colour, topping off the look with a similarly coloured trilby.
It's not clear whether Kate has had the same boots in her wardrobe for well over a decade or she's so fond of them that she bought a second pair, as they're still available to buy from the designer's website.

This morning, she teamed them with skinny jeans, a shirt and a £495 Nubock shoot waistcoat but despite the heat she barely broke a sweat on the gruelling hike.
While Prince William was seen wiping sweat from his brow, his wife appeared unfazed by the climb and simply pushed her hair back from her face with her sunglasses.
The couple had started their trek through the stunning scenery around 10am (local time) and arrived at the monastery three hours later (12.50pm) having stopped for a couple of breaks.
