Kate Middleton returned to her royal duties on Thursday! The stunning brunette, who gave birth to her second child [1], daughter Charlotte, in May, visited the Anna Freud Centre, a children's mental health facility, in London on Sept. 17. Kate showed off her new bangs [2] and looked gorgeous in a black-and-white dress [3] with black heels. The mom of two was all smiles as she mingled at the event, at one point even trying on a pair of 3D glasses to test out a game that helps children with discipline and coordination.

Kate's outing comes at the end of a busy Summer for the royal family. After welcoming Charlotte in May, Kate, Prince William, and their son, Prince George, attended the annual Trooping the Colour ceremony [4] in London. George then had a fun day out at a charity polo match [5] with his mom before the entire family attended Charlotte's christening [6] in July.
