Kate Middleton doesn't change outfits in the middle of the day just for the fun of it—especially when the duchess is traveling. She often has to attend a variety of events in one day, all with very different settings. For her trip to Scotland today, for instance, she met with kids outdoors at a farm and then had an indoor event to discuss her mental health initiatives at a café. So naturally, she packed two different outfits for the day, but she stuck with the same pair of versatile black skinny jeans for both engagements.
In the morning, the Duchess of Cambridge dressed appropriately for her visit to a farm in a Barbour jacket, black skinny jeans, and her trusty Penelope Chilvers boots that she's owned for over a decade. For the next event, she made a quick change, swapping out the Barbour jacket for a Reiss gray blazer and nixing the knee-high boots in favor of Aquatalia ankle boots. Now that's how to make the most of everything you packed in your suitcase while traveling. Scroll down to see and shop Kate Middleton's newest outfits in Scotland.
