Kate Middleton wears a custom Alexander McQueen tartan coat while playing field hockey at St. Andrew’s School

Wardrobe watching aside, the best part of any Kate Middleton engagement is when we get to see the Duchess in action. From creating art with her father-in-law, Prince Charles, to learning a new dance in the South Pacific, it’s nice to see that royals can be just like us. (Sort of.) Which brings us to today: Kate Middleton visited her old preparatory school, St. Andrew’s, and while there she toured the grounds, made a speech and participated in some field hockey. Unlike her last time on the field, Kate didn’t make a wardrobe change. She kept her black Aquatalia boots on and thankfully they didn’t seem to hinder her movement or make a dent into the astroturf.
Speaking of wardrobe, Kate Middleton was wearing a new coat today and one that many suspect was created just for the occasion. Custom designed by Alexander McQueen, the tartan coatdress featured a navy and green print that is similar to that of St. Andrew’s School. Also noteworthy: Kate’s enviable hair seems to have more superpowers than we originally suspected. Those bangs she was fretting about yesterday? They looked perfectly polished today.
