Kate Middleton Just Wore Pants From Your Absolute Favorite Store

POPSUGAR Fashion 4 hours ago
On day four of the royal trip to India, Kate Middleton began her morning on a casual note. The duchess joined Prince William on a safari through Kaziranga National Park where they met with rangers. Things were bound to get a little messy, so a Jenny Packham gown like the one the duchess wore to a gala in Mumbai was out of the question. Instead, Kate chose Zara. She completed her olive biker trousers ($50) with a ruffled button-down top by RM Williams and accessorized with the essentials: Ray-Ban wayfarers, Sebago boat shoes, and Kiki McDonough jeweled earrings (now sold out) for a girlie touch. Read on to see the duchess's sensible, functional look from every angle, then pick up the pieces. We ...

Kate Middleton Had Another Brief Marilyn Moment

Peggy Truong,Cosmopolitan Tue, Apr 12 7:18 AM PDT

From Cosmopolitan
During a super-serious visit to the Tomb of the Unknown Solder in Delhi, Kate Middleton suffered yet another wardrobe malfunction, thanks to the extremely windy forecast. The Duchess, who otherwise looked divine in a cream dress by one of her faves, Emilia Wickstead, literally had her hands full of her dress when she joined Prince William in a wreath-laying ceremony, which included the challenge of staying still during a moment of reflection. As her luck would have it, the dress did not stay still - though her hair remained as perfect as ever, just like a shampoo commercial. Of course, staying true to her track record with the wind (see here and here for some fine examples), Kate handled the situation like a true professional. Take it away, Duchess, wind.

Kate Middleton, Prince William Meet With Vulnerable, At-Risk Children in India: Heartbreaking Details, Photos

Us Weekly Tue, Apr 12 8:52 AM PDT
Duchess Kate Middleton joined Prince William on Tuesday, April 12, at a charity shelter in New Delhi, India, where they met with India's most vulnerable population: trafficked children. Us Weekly's European Bureau Chief Omid Scobie (who's currently among the select members of the press on their tour) was on hand to observe the royal couple at the charity center Salaam Baalak, which seeks to restore kids living in broken conditions.
On average, about 6,600 children visit the center each year, often on their own. Salaam Baalak provides food, education, health care and shelter for kids in need, ages 5 to 18, who in some cases, run away from home due to abuse or extreme poverty. These children find themselves at the New Delhi train station, where they become easy targets for prostitution, human trafficking and physical or sexual abuse.

The Duchess, 34, arrived for the occasion in a maxi patterned red dress by Glamorous, and wore a bindi on her forehead. After greeting a group of young boys, the couple learned more about the charity's mission from its director, Sanjoy Roy, who said: "The boys come here for four hours of lessons and some food every day. When they're not here, they're at the railway station."

"Is that dangerous?" Prince William asked, which prompted the director to reply: "Yes, so they try to stick together. We look after around 7,000 kids a year, but every day around 40 to 50 new children arrive at the station. They often have to deal with trauma, learning difficulties, ADHD … and we have special programs to help them with that."

Roy continued: "These children that we look after are the most vulnerable. Some may have their eyes gauged out or hands hacked off. The primary reasons they run away from home are misunderstanding with stepparents, physical and mental abuse, incredible poverty or a life event such as forced marriage."
Moved by their stories, the Duke of Cambridge asked: "What can we do to help?"
"Spread the word," Roy replied. "People think of them as street kids, beggars, thieves, but they are just children. They deserve an education, future and a life. They have a right to a childhood."
The couple then met with the center's medical professionals including Dr. Amit Sen, psychiatrist Dr. Mazhar Khan, mental health counselor Praveen Jha and others who worked in partnership with the charity. "We were just saying how amazing this charity is," the Duchess told the group. "What's society's view on mental health? Is it spoken about or is there a stigma?"
Roy explained that the condition has been addressed and the charity has been asked to work alongside India's government to "spread the word." He added: "On the last census 110 million children were out of school and mental health is a real challenge. We want it to be looked at as a major issue." The Duchess interjected: "As soon as possible."
