On their second day in Bhutan, Kate Middleton and Prince William set out on a six-hour hike to Paro Taktsang, the Tiger's Nest monastery. And while the plan was to pose for photos along the way, the duchess had to be realistic and give up her fancy dress [1]. But for Kate, that doesn't mean an outfit with no less polish.
Already proving she can bring style to a functional look [2], Kate worked olive-green skinny jeans with a Jaeger linen button-down [3] ($100), bringing her separates together with a leather vest [4] ($715) from British retailer Really Wild Clothing [5].
Kate added flair to her simple pieces with tassled boots from Penelope Chilvers [6] ($536), and her go-to accessories: her sapphire engagement ring, Kiki McDonough drop earrings, and, yes, her classic Ray-Ban wayfarers. Read on to see why, as far as we're concerned, this fitness endeavor looked fashionable enough [7] to earn a spot in a catalog, then shop Kate's most sporty basics [8].
