[Per my sources at What Would Kate Do?](https://whatwouldkatedo.com/2015/01/the-duchess-of-cambridge-visits-fostering-network-in-london/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io), this Hobbes dress is also the one she wore at [The Great Holiday Hand-Holding of 2014](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/sandringham-royal-family-2014-12-2014/). I have no beef with a shirt-dress. I know some of you will find fault with the brown dress/black shoes combo, however. I do wonder if having a patterned shoe in your Shoe Wardrobe would solve this problem. LEOPARD PRINT KATE.

Informative Caption Time: "Pregnant Kate Middleton attends an event hosted by The Fostering Network to celebrate the work of foster carers in providing support to vulnerable young people." (A) That's a good cause! And (b) it's always a bit of an eyeroller when Informative Caption reminds me that she's pregnant. I sort of wish Informative Caption would start throwing in all kinds of random descriptors of people, though. "Left-handed Prince William today attends the opening of a Useful Widget Factory," "Red-haired Prince Harry appears at the end of the Annual Gloucestershire Three-Legged Race." "Gnarly-cuticled Princess Anne apprehends serial forger Mr. Bates in tense stand-off at the Marble Arch." Etc.

"And then I was like, 'Harry, you *cannot* bring a goat to Christmas. You Know Who will freak out.' But he got so mad and we haven't spoken since. I don't know. What should I do? Can you pass me that tiny sandwich? Thanks."

Time for the Cute Children Greeting People portion of the event -- and frankly, I feel like every red carpet would go better if all the celebrities were first asked to run a gauntlet of tiny people and/or farm animals. Can't you just see it? Cate Blanchett arrives at the Oscars, greets three small children in tiny puffer coats, then pets a winsome llama on the way to talk to Giuliana, who is stationed in the goat yard, a goat peacefully gnawing on the hem of her gown.

"My brother-in-law is a ginger too. He's LOADS OF TROUBLE."

Apparently, Kate took a particular shine to this baby and frankly, how can you not? I can tell that this child is TOTALLY SQUEEZEABLE and that's only from seeing the side of her cheek. (I have a Cheek Weakness. A Cheekness.)

[Royally Played: The Duchess of Cambridge in HobbsKate, aren't you cold? Wait, I retract that. I don't want to sound like the DMIK, etc, one of which will surely be writing a piece called KATE FREEZES BUMP OFF IN SHOCKING COATLESS JAUNT: Will Wills Step In To Defrost The Spare?!? Maybe she's just running hot this pregnancy. Maybe she knows we love coats and she's just f'ing with us. Way harsh, Kate. \[Photos: Getty, INF, Fame/Flynet\]![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/infphoto_3269393.xml)](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/royally-played-the-duchess-of-cambridge-in-hobbs-01-2015/)
