Duchess Kate was all elegance and smiles at the Saint Patrick’s Day parade in Aldershot, a town in Hampshire, England, today. Kate dressed for the holiday in a royal green coat by Laura Green, hat by Lock & Co. Hatters, and matching heels. She also wore a brooch in the shape of a shamrock, which reportedly belongs to the Irish Guards; it’s a piece she first wore in 2011.
Prince William, who is the Colonel of the Irish Guards, stood by his wife’s side through the celebration dressed in a military coat with a sprig on his cap. The two greeted the 1st Battalion Irish Guards at the Mons Barracks.
“Happy #StPatricksDay wherever in the world you’re celebrating today!” the royal couple tweeted.
They also shared photos and videos of themselves with the officers and their mascot, an adorable two-year-old Irish wolfhound named Séamus. Kate was pictured happily pinning a sprig of shamrock on the dog during the ceremony.
