Week in Review: The Duchess of Cambridge, 25 September-1 October

Here's what Catherine wore from 25 September-1 October:

1. Opening a new children's cancer care center at the Royal Marsden Hospital, 29 September in Amanda Wakeley with her trusty LK Bennett Sledges and Natalie handbag. I hope you like this dress, apparently she bought the £450 frock in this oatmeal and gunmetal and black. I'm a fan, it's safely elegant and what have you - hard to go wrong. It's like a bowl of oatmeal: trusty and sturdy, but definitely ready for some accoutrements...you gotta have some raisins or something in there. Apples, granola, you get my drift. I like the dress though, and am in total agreement with HRH here that this is the sort of thing you buy in bulk.

Can we agree that the star of this visit  is Prince William, though? This dude showed up on no sleep after working one of his 24 hour shifts saving lives and such and then spent 2 1/2 hours at the hospital with the wifey. You know, as you do.

What a stud, am I right?

Also, Kate spent some time this week at the National Portrait Gallery, dressed all in black. I guess all that red from last week was enough to tide her over for a while?
