Kate Middleton is keeping busy with her scheduled Zoom appearances and—no surprise here—she has perfected her on-screen call outfits. Tomorrow, the Duchess of Cambridge will speak in a pre-recorded message about the importance of mental wellbeing in children during an assembly hosted by the Oak National Academy. Unlike most of us, who hop on to a video call in a days-old pullover (guilty), Kate got dressed up in a blue floral cap sleeve dress from Marks and Spencer and had her hair cascading down in soft waves.
The summertime dress, which is still available to shop, is only $69. If you follow Kate's style, you know she has a history of wearing affordable pieces from Marks and Spencer as well as places such as Zara and J.Crew. This time around, it seemed like the Duchess wanted to keep it simple and event appropriate by selecting this sweet floral dress. For now, check out a preview of her speech and tune into Kate's full video call tomorrow.
Tomorrow morning, The Duchess of Cambridge is hosting an assembly for @OakNational on the importance of kindness.She’ll be using a @Place2Be lesson plan from #MentallyHealthySchools, where you can find classroom resources on wellbeing. Find out more 👇@AFNCCF | @YoungMindsJune 17, 2020
