Wills and Kate in Adelaide

This is a skirt and top, I believe, and it IS very pretty and more than that, it's soooo soothing. They've got two more days of events after this and then they get to pack up the doodle and head home and I feel like at this point, they must want to wear the sartorial equivalent of spa robes. Which I hope is what they wear on the plane. Which is also a joke I realized I made on the Canada trip. But I stand by it. I love a hotel robe. Imagine how great the plane robe must be!

Kate's McQueen

Another look at the McQueen in Action. It's our third McQueen of the trip, I believe. (We will have a complete wrap-up of her wardrobe for you on Friday -- or maybe post-Friday, since it depends on when the pics all shake in-- as well as a post of The Best of George and all kind of other good bits and pieces, so make sure to tune in.)

Kate's Watch, Clutch, and, of course, THE RING

I think we might make it this entire trip without my suffering a COMPLETE break with reason and buying a Cartier watch. I do like that clutch. But more importantly: now we know that she DOES have a manicure. Very pale. Feels like Essie.

Kate and Wills DJ

I assume Kate is trying to convince William that he CANNOT abandon his birthright and run off to become a DJ called The Fresh Prince.

Kate DJs

She, however, will be volunteering to DJ the next party Cressida and Harry throw. There is, by the way, video of said DJing from both of them over at What Would Kate Do? and it's pretty charming. The phrase, "mix it up" is used. Somewhere, George just woke up and stared at the ceiling and thought "MUM AND DAD YOU'RE EMBARRASSING ME PLEASE STOP THANK YOU ALSO SOMEONE TAKE ME OUT OF THIS CRIB I AM BORED."

Wills and Kate and a Little Girl

PLEASE HAVE A PRINCESS NEXT, YOU GUYS. (That's super easy to control, right?) Also, ahem. Sorry. None of my business. What I really meant to say was: this kid is adorable, and in fact all the little kids who've come out to meet them have been so so cute in their outfits. I would legit wear this little girl's dress.

Wills and Kate

That is kind of a pretty sweet skateboard, actually. Way more useful in the halls of Kensington Palace than, like, a jet ski or whatever. Apparently, Kate tried to get William to try it out, but he claimed he would "stack it," which is slang I have never heard before but enjoy. Is that the Brit equivalent of "bite it"?

Wills and Kate

Apparently, someone DID stack/bite it.

Wills and Kate

Bye, you guys! Until tomorrow!

Well Played: Kate, Wills, and George’s Royal Tour of Australia and New Zealand, Day Sixteen

And we've got Kate in McQueen again. (Interestingly, this sort of reminds me of the Emilia Wickstead dress she wore, ages ago, that she revived this week in teal.) This is not the first time she's worn McQueen in this pale pink shade; you may remember her pink McQueen coat from The Queen's Birthday in 2013, when Harry tried to high-five her. On Twitter, Fug National Lesliepedia noted that the cut of the vee on this bodice was similar to that on her McQueen wedding dress, and I like that idea; it's nice to see her in a different neckline than the usual. (PS: their wedding anniversary is Tuesday and we will be bringing you a wedding retrospective so you can ease your way out of daily royals shenanigans with maximum gown-age.) Parenthetically, I know there is a faction of people who love these Sledge shoes on her, but I have to say that while I actually really like the shape of them -- in a deeply classic, agonizingly appropriate kind of way -- I also think they are a ZzzzzZZZZzzzzzz in this color. I don't expect her to Go Cray and wear, like, polka dotted heels (although that would be cute), but the color of this dress is delicate enough that she could do something Never Nude. Even the charcoal gray ones she wore with the uplinked Wickstead! Free yourself from the tyranny of the nude shoe, Kate! At any rate, this day looked fun: they hung out with kids and watched skateboarders and got to DJ and unveiled a plaza named after George, then flew home to hang out with Cheeksy McSqueezeable himself. (William must have a ton of streets and plazas named after himself. I hope sometimes he can name drop them: "Drive allllll the way down to where the road dead-ends in ME STREET and then hang a left. Don't be late, Kate's bringing a souffle.") [Photos: Getty]
