I am on the road and it was just too late last night to post on Kate's appearance at the Diamond Jubilee lunch. I pulled up one picture on my phone to see what she wore, and it was pretty, but didn't have me scrambling for more shots. This pink pleated Emilia Wickstead is perfectly appropriate for the occasion. I like that she wore a dress rather than a suit, both because it is softer and more feminine, and because it gives her an air of youth. The last time Kate wore this designer was at the Irish Guards on St. Patrick's Day. I definitely like Emilia Wickstead, this dress just didn't dazzle me.
The most interesting part of the outfit has to be the shoes. She certainly switched it up from the usual nude pumps. Charlene of Monaco was present at the lunch. Charlene and Albert were married in a televised, although smaller, ceremony last year. Charlene stepped into the late Grace Kelly's shoes, so I think many Americans are watching her with interest for that reason.

In this last shot above, you can see the brooch that Kate was wearing, although often obscured by her tumbling hair.
This video gives a sense of the beautiful Windsor Castle where the lunch was held. There was an evening event, but unfortunately, Kate and William did not attend. And so we wait for her to don a tiara again...
And this video gives you a look at Charlene's incredible curtsy and a brief clip of Wills and Kate chtting with guests:
