Duchess Kate makes fashionable arrival in Norway in Catherine Walker outfit

Updated

Duchess Kate and Prince William were welcomed to Norway on Thursday with some frigid weather. After a two-day trip to Sweden, the two touched down in Oslo where they will begin the final leg of their four-day tour.

Of course, Kate dressed to impress for the occasion despite the chilly temps. The 36-year-old royal greeted the crowd in a wool Catherine Walker coat, an alpaca fur hat by Lacorine and a pair of riding boots.

Throughout the Scandinavian tour, Kate's most beloved accessory has been her alpaca hats in a wide arrange of colors. The hat she wore on Tuesday was made by local Peruvian artisans from the pelts of alpacas who have died from natural causes rather than being bred for their pelts. The mother of Prince George and Princess Charlotte has been seen wearing these hats on numerous occasions through the years, including on Christmas Day at Sandringham a couple of weeks ago.

Once inside the palace, the Duchess of Cambridge took off her coat to unveil a stunning lace Seraphine dress. The London-based brand has been a favorite of Kate's throughout her three pregnancies. She also swapped her riding boots for some black velvet pumps to match the lace look.

William and Kate were joined by King Harald V, Queen Sonja and their 14-year-old daughter Princess Ingrid Alexandra for lunch at the palace before they continued with their event-filled day. The Norwegian royals gave Kate and William a tour of the sculpture park on the palace grounds as part of their lunch.

Later on, they even exchanged gifts, with Kate and Wills gifting their hosts with a signed portrait. The King and Queen of Norway gifted the British royals books, an ornamental bowl, a framed portrait, and a set of wool sweaters.
