Duchess looks smart in a £600 Meghan-inspired checked blazer

The Duchess of Cambridge looked impeccable this morning as she rocked the smart casual look in a smart checked blazer, teamed with black skinny jeans and ankle boots. 

Although she's fond of recycling old outfits, the £625 blazer from Canadian brand Smythe appeared to be a new addition to Kate's wardrobe.  

Her outfit certainly wouldn't look out of place on her sister-in-law Meghan who recently wore a similar ensemble on a visit to Dubbo during the royal tour of Australia. 

Kate, 36, joined her husband William in Essex to visit the Royal Foundation's Coach Core programme, an initiative using sport to empower those not in education or employment.

The pair received a rapturous welcome from royal fans who had gathered outside Basildon Sporting Village hoping to meet the royal couple, and one little girl couldn't resist throwing her arms around Kate and giving her a hug as they chatted.

Inside, the couple had the opportunity to join in two different activities – indoor athletics and tennis - with Wimbledon patron Kate taking the opportunity to show off her skills on the court. 

Kate and William also took part in a game of boccia - a seated game, where competitors throw a ball as close to a target as they can. 


It was a case of Duke vs Duchess as the couple indulged their competitive streak by taking part on opposite teams. 

While William tried his hand at javelin throwing using foam arrows, keen tennis fan Kate had the chance to show off her skills on the court. 

Through training, the Coach Core initiative aims to create the next generation of sports coaches who will themselves go on to inspire their communities.
