In her feet, the princess opted for a pair of pointed toe shoes from the same designer, one of her favorites. The style is the 85 Fab Pump and it features a slingback pump in beige leather with a contrasting pointed toecap in black patent leather. They also include a Mary-Jane strap and a 3.3 inch mid heel.
When it came to accessories, Middleton chose to add on to the polka dot theme of her ensemble by choosing a fascinator that included straps of white and black dotted details in flower a feather shapes by royal family’s favorite headwear brand Philip Treacy.
She completed the look with a pair of dangling pearl and diamonds earrings by Collin Wood she’s worn in many occasions, and a beige clutch.
When it came to beauty, the princess wore more makeup than usual, with a dark shade of burgundy on her lips, an extra dose of brown blush and a smokey eye in gray and black colors.
