Kate Shops at John Lewis in Zara, Vote for Kate's Best Separates Look & Favoured Pieces Brought Back!
It's wonderful to wake up to an unexpected Kate sighting!
Following a relaxing couple of weeks with the Middleton family at Anmer Hall where they celebrated Christmas and Kate's 33rd birthday privately, the Duchess is back in London ahead of several engagements. On Monday, she was photographed leaving department store John Lewis with several shopping bags. PopSugar has several additional photographs in their story.
The Duchess was accompanied by two royal protection officers. An onlooker spotted Kate and told E! she "shopped for at least an hour" and Kate "carried all her own bags and they did not look light". The department store has a sizeable sale at the moment and we expect the Duchess grabbed a few bargains.

Kate's dusty-pink, straight-cut coat is a Zara piece (with thanks to WKW FB readers Melissa and Rebecca). The 50% wool, 50% viscose garment originally retailed for £80 before going on sale for £30 and selling out. It's a great piece for wearing out and about and the roomy silhouette is perfect for Kate at this stage in her pregnancy. Kate obviously favours soft-pink/pale coats - with several in her wardrobe.
Although Kate's bag looks green in the photos, it is thought to be her grey Tod's D-Styling bag, with the shade of colour changed by photo editing. However, it's entirely possible she has a green Tod's bag too.

Kate completed the look with a black scarf and wore her hair in a ponytail.

Continuing on with our polls - today we're asking you to vote for Kate's 'Best Separates Look'. We have just three options for this poll.
Firstly, we take a look at the chic icy-blue Alexander McQueen suit Kate wore for Trooping the Colour.
Whilst exploring a family connection at Bletchley Park, Kate repeated her McQueen military-style blouse and navy skirt with gold anchor-embossed embellishment.
For the Place2Be Awards in November, the Duchess teamed a black mesh 'Emilia' top with peplum detail from Hobbs London with a peacock blue skirt from Jenny Packham.

Next, we have news on three popular items of clothing worn by Kate during the royal tour last year. The L.K. Bennett poppy-print 'Lasa' dress proved to be your favourite of Kate's dresses from the tour.
Such was the popularity of the garment, the brand has released an updated version of the dress - the 'Lasana' printed dress. The vibrant pink floral print makes this piece a wonderful piece for spring/summer. Whether it's for a summer wedding, garden party or any social function it stands out for all the right reasons. I'd love to see Kate wearing this colourway too. It's still available for £250 in all sizes, however, it is expected to sell out quickly.
The dress has also been updated with a subtle tonal-blue pattern. The confetti embroidered floral-print dress features a gathered bodice, fitted waist and flared skirt to create a feminine silhouette. It retails for £440 at Net-A-Porter.

The runway version of Kate's blue Michael Kors coat is available in limited sizes at Yoox for $1,451. The single-breasted coat has a lapel collar and a two-tone pattern.
