Because I know some of you are wondering, no, she's not wearing hose -- thank GOD -- and the pedicure is clear. I do think there's some kind of Royal Decree that, say, a red toe is common. ## Wills and Kate ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/485401117_10.xml) I have to say, of all his many many blue suits, I might think this one fits him the most handsomely. ## Wills, Kate, and an Alpaca, and a Dude Shearing The Alpaca ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/485403465_10.xml) I feel like the alpaca here is thinking, "this is so undignified. Do we really have to do this in front of her?" ## Kate, Wills, and a Ram Named Fred ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/485403511_10.xml) I believe this is where, per the Mirror, Kate told William he could use this wool as a toupee. (Reports ALSO indicate that he thought this was funny; they're really taking the piss out of each other a lot this trip.) ## William, Kate, and Gourds ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/485403559.xml) This is the first time I've ever said this on this website but: That's a LOT of gourds. ## Kate the Pumpkin ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/485403557_10.xml) Apparently there is a pumpkin underneath there. It's a pumpkin dressed as Kate. I hope someone prints her a copy of this photo and she puts it on the piano along with the rest of their vacation snaps. ## FOREGROUND GOURDS ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/485426795.xml) YET MORE GOURDS. What if the rest of this slideshow is just Kate lurking behind squash of various sorts? What if, in this late night frenzy, I change the name of the site to Gourd Fug Yourself?! (It's not.) (And I won't.) ## Wills and Kate ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/485425813.xml) "Seriously, Kate. I do not know how we're going to get this all home. Do we need to rent one of those pods? Should I call Fed Ex? Are babies even *allowed* to surf? Can we just talk about how I cannot be stopped from wearing chinos in Australia? I love them now. Are these better than the ones I wore yesterday? Maybe we should have just worn shorts. I'm just saying, I have notes." ## Wills and Kate ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/485426889.xml) A looksee at the back of her frock. ## Kate and Lifeguards ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/485426051.xml) "So, tell me more about these very tiny swimsuits you all wear!" ## Kate on the Beach ![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/485425693.xml) Here's another shot for the top of the piano. She certainly is a photogenic creature. [Well Played: Kate, Wills, and George’s Royal Tour of Australia and New Zealand, Day TwelveToday! Wills and Kate went to something called The Royal Easter Show, which best as I could figure out -- please help me, Australians! -- is somewhat like a really really LARGE county fair here in the US, full of livestock-shearing exhibits and people's prize-winning pumpkins and whatnot. I actually love those parts of the fair: the livestock and the jams and the pies. The Los Angeles County Fair has an entire exhibition of tablescapes, and it is tremendous. I also have a friend who once cooked a literally prize-winning pie, which is just the best. In other words, this seems fun and also it led to some excellent photos, as you will soon see. A TON of people came out both to see them -- Richard Palmer, who writes for the Daily Express, said on Twitter that it was anticipated to be something like 150,000 people -- and presumably also to look at some truly glorious gourds. They they visited a children's hospice (where Kate gave a speech) and hit the beach to look at a life-saving demonstration and also a surfing exhibition (or a swimming race? Something racey/swimmy/surf-y). Many a demonstration/exhibition/unveiling on this trip. OUTFITS: Kate wore a white dress by Zimmerman, an Aussie designer (I learned this from the Duchess Kate blog's twitter, HRH Duchess Kate. I have to say that the community of Kate Watchers on Twitter is very smart and helpful and friendly, and it's been really fun tweeting with them throughout this tour). I really am into this dress. I would totally wear it to my casual summer wedding -- and event that is, at this moment, totally fictional. It actually might be my favorite thing she's worn all trip so far, at least in terms of being both new, and An Outfit A Normal Person Could Wear. Not that you teal Emilia Wickstead-wearing fashion plates are abnormal. Footwise, she's wearing her OTHER pair of Stuart Weitzman wedges (the Minx) -- this info per What Would Kate Do?'s twitter, and which I recognized from the South East Asia tour. Dammit, Kate. You are not helping me with my wedge addiction. As for William, he wore a grass skirt and a coconut bra. By which I mean he wore...drumroll...a blue suit. In fairness, this particular blue suit is extremely nice. Apparently at some point in the day, they went home and had lunch with George, and while they were home, he changed, and so it is William who actually has more than one get-up today, while Kate does not. Wonders will truly never cease. \[Photos: Getty\]![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/485403263_10.xml)](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/well-played-kate-wills-and-georges-royal-tour-of-australia-and-new-zealand-day-twelve-04-2014/)
