The mother-of-three looked so chic as she walked in procession to the Chapel, wearing a stunning blue coat dress. The close-fitting style had a chic tailored finish and she teamed it with the most gorgeous sling back shoes that came complete with a sparkling strap by Aquazzura. The brunette royal wore her hair in a sleek up do style and subtle makeup highlighted her lovely features. We adore her coordinating hat and sparkling jewellery - also in blue, too!

WATCH: Kate Middleton says the sweetest thing about Prince William

The service is particularly special as Prince Charles' wife, the Duchess of Cornwall, will be installed as a Royal Lady of the Order of the Garter. This is the first Garter Day service since 2019 so it's a special landmark for the royals.
