Kate Middleton went with something old and something new today in Galway as she and Prince William continued their royal tour of Ireland.

The Duchess of Cambridge sported a custom Suzannah dress with long sleeves and a midi hemline. The dress was done in a green colorway, a fitting choice, as Ireland is known as “The Emerald Isle.”

For footwear, the duchess wore a pair of pointed-toe, stiletto-heeled Ralph Lauren boots that she has worn before. The suede boots have sold out. Kate is known to recycle some of her most loved shoes, including pumps from Gianvito Rossi, Jimmy Choo and Rupert Sanderson.

The mom of three accessorized with a Jimmy Choo Palace clutch, available for about $600 on Farfetch.com, according to royal watchers. While out and about, she bundled up in an Alexander McQueen coat that was also a repeat item.

In addition to recycling the pieces in her closet, Kate is known for choosing British labels, such as L.K. Bennett, Catherine Walker and McQueen. This is one of the reasons fans love her style, according to Elizabeth Holmes, the longtime style reporter and author of the forthcoming book “HRH: So Many Thoughts on Royal Style.”

“There has long been a contingent of Kate fans drawn to her classic choices and penchant for British designers,” Holmes told FN.
