Kate Middleton joined Prince William for a few engagements in Birmingham, including a visit to Jaguar Land Rover's Solihull manufacturing plant. The duchess selected one of her old maternity coats [1], previously worn in 2014 when she was pregnant with Princess Charlotte. While Kate appeared as put together as ever in her functional Russell & Bromley boots and a pair of dark skinnies [2], her Goat outerwear made styling this outfit easy.
Considering its military-inspired details — contrast stitching and noticeable buttons at the sleeves and on the back — Kate didn't need to add much hardware to make her look feel complete. She did accessorize with delicate Kiki McDonough earrings [3] and a Mulberry clutch, but it's safe to say we could all use a similar one-and-done jacket in our wardrobes [4]. If Kate had ditched jewelry entirely and worn a pajama blouse underneath this design, we'd never suspect it. Read on to take in her ensemble, then shop for your own embellished coat.
