Today, the Duchess of Cambridge brought some early Christmas cheer to seriously ill children and their parents at the Shooting Star House Children’s Hospice in Hampton, England. She viewed the facilities and met with volunteers. She spent time with the sick children and participated in the musical therapy and art classes. Kate also entertained the children with a hand puppet. Catherine looked beautiful in a contemporary grey jacket from high-street label Reiss. The Reiss 'Delaney' coat is a collarless jacket with seam detailing, a flared fit, slit pockets, and fastens with a single concealed button. It retailed for £275 but has now sold out. Kate styled the tailored coat with casual navy corduroy stretch skinny jeans. These remain unidentified but they are believed to be from J Brand, one of Kate's favourite denim labels. She wore her pants tucked into adorable 'Neptune' wedge booties from Aquatalia. In the UK, these booties are also known as the Russell and Bromley New-Dry style. The suede weather-proof ankle boots are trimmed with rabbit fur and retail for US$450. The Duchess accessorised her outfit with Kiki McDonough diamond and green amethyst earrings and a new necklace which 'My Small Obsessions' has confirmed is the 'Fortune Drop Necklace' by Mappin & Webb.

One of Kate's favourite high-street brands, Reiss is having a bi-annual sale. You can get up to 50% off dresses, tops, coats, shoes and much more! Kate helped put this label on the global radar after she famously wore the Reiss Nanette dress for her official engagement photo shoot. Back to the sale! I'm loving the Pensa dress which shares similar structured sheath elements of the Shola dress which Kate wore in May 2011 when she meet the Obama's at Buckingham Palace. Here's my top 5 picks from the sale: Shop the Reiss Sale: http://www.reiss.com
