Kate Middleton Wears Alexander McQueen Tartan Dress To Visit St Andrew's School

It's been an exciting week in the world of Kate Middleton. First she caused a furore when she stepped out on Tuesday night sporting a brand new half-fringe (GASP!) and rewearing that gorgeous green dress by Mulberry. Then she wowed the world by taming her new Farrah Fawcett do for an outing the following day in Cambridge. And at the British Fashion Awards, she had everyone from Salma Hayek to Manolo Blanhik singing her praises. So how better to top off the week than with head-to-toe blue and green tartan? And no, it's not her school uniform despite the fact she's spending the day at her old preparatory school in Berkshire to celebrate St Andrew’s Day.

In fact, Kate has opted for a long-sleeved, high-neck top teamed with a flared knee-length skirt. How festive! Clarence House informs us the ensemble comes courtesy of Alexander McQueen (naturallment) and the tailored design is super-flattering on our K-Midd. It's very similiar to this McQ origami wool capped sleeve dress that was available on My Wardrobe for $1,006.50 but is now out of stock. Boo! The Duchess has kept cosy in a pair of heeled knee-high boots over black tights and added a simple black clutch. And would you look at those gorgeously tumbling curls? The brand new side-swept hair is really coming into its own.
