The Duchess of Cambridge visited the Great Ormond Street Hospital today where she was on hand to open the new Mittal Children’s Medical Centre.
Kate brighten up the hospital wards in her new vibrant red coat by Boden.
Crafted with pure cotton, this structured coat falls to just below the knees and is embellished with ruffles at the collar, the two front pocket and the cuffs of the long sleeves. Fully lined for comfort, it is completed with a button down placket with large statement buttons. The coat retails for £220 and is currently in stock at Boden and John Lewis. If you are placing your first order with Boden (USA), you can get 20% off Kate's coat with promocode 4C6L.
The peach hued dress under the coat is believed to be the same one she wore with her Tara Jarmon coat in April 2013 when pregnant with George. The coordinating dress is said to be by “an independent dressmaker”.
Kate contrasted the bold hue with muted brown suede accessories. She carried her chocolate Emmy 'Natasha' clutch and on her feet were brown pointed-toe pumps, believed to be the same pair she first wore in Anglesey back in February 2016.
The Duchess has accessorized with her beloved Annoushka Pearl and Kiki Diamond Hoop Earrings.
Up next, the Duchess will visit Bond Primary School in Mitcham in her role as Patron of Wimbledon, to see the work of the Wimbledon Junior Tennis Initiative. It's past midnight in my part of the world so I'll cover this event tomorrow.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge spent the day in Coventry for a series of engagements starting with a visit to the Coventry Cathedral, followed by a stop at Coventry University and then a meeting with The Positive Youth Foundation.
The Duchess sported a familiar look, opting for an outfit she first wore in New York at the September 11 Memorial & Museum in December 2014 while pregnant with Princess Charlotte. We saw the ensemble again a few moths later just before she went on maternity leave.
KATE'S OUTFIT
GLOVES: Cornelia James 'Beatrice' black wool gloves (£70)
The Duchess of Cambridge made an unannounced appearance at the Head Start Learning Conference today in her role as Patron of the Anna Freud National Centre for Children and Families.
Kate participated in discussions and chatted with young people and staff leading the HeadStart programme which aims to build Mental Health and resilience in children and young people across the country.
KATE'S OUTFIT
EARRINGS: Mappin & Webb Empress Drop Earrings
BOOTS: Aquatalia 'Ruby Dry' Platform Ankle Boot in Black Suede (£265)
The Duchess of Cambridge was back on royal duty today visiting the Reach Academy Feltham for her first official engagement of 2018.
The school works in partnership with Place2Be to support pupils and families. Kate attended in her role as the charity's patron, reflecting her interest in children’s mental health and the importance of supporting children and families to give kids the best possible start in life.
For her first day back at work Kate debuted the HOBBS 'Gianna' coat in navy wool (thanks to @marybozzoli via Twitter for the ID). Taking inspiration from the traditional riding coat, the Gianna is a modern classic. Made in beautiful French navy wool, it is tailored and has a dramatic femininity achieved by the flared skirt and black detailing. The curved collar and pewter buttons add an extra equestrian touch.
Under the coat the Duchess wore her Seraphine 'Florrie' dress. You may recall she first wore it when pregnant with Princess Charlotte for a day of engagements in Kensington in January of 2015.
Kate coordinated the outfit with her navy Stuart Weitzman 'Muse' suede clutch and Jimmy Choo 'Georgia' Navy Suede Pumps.
She also wore her Ballon Bleu de Cartier Stainless Steel Bracelet Watch.
She finished the ensemble with her sapphire and diamond earrings.
Today we got our first glimpse of the Duchess of Cambridge in the new year!
Prince William and Kate joined Her Majesty and Prince Phillip for Sunday service at the church of St Mary Magdalene on the Queen's Sandringham Estate in Norfolk.
The royal family were also accompanied by Kate's sister and brother-in-law, as well as William's long-time friend James Meade and his wife. Pippa wore The Fold's 'Clarendon' navy coat and a fedora by Jess Collett.
The Duchess rugged up in her brown Moloh 'Turpin' Tweed coat, first worn Christmas Day 2014. The piece is from the 2013 autumn/winter collection and below is a brief description of the coat as featured in February 2013 Belgravia Residents’ Journal.
Kate carried the Chanel quilted handbag, first seen in Paris last March, and on her feet were the trusty Tod's Burgundy Fringed Leather Pumps.
She wore her Sapphire & Diamond Oval Drop Earrings.
Kate accessorized with fur elements, adding another alpaca hat to her collection. It appears to be the Lacorine 'Sumac' style in chocolate brown (£187.50).
The Duchess completed the look with a new pair of the fur-trimmed gloves. They are the Cornelia James ‘Clementine’ style (£85) in chocolate brown. The wrist-length gloves are 100% merino wool and trimmed with faux fur.
This is the third consecutive year the Duke & Duchess of Cambridge have attended the January Sunday Service. On all three occasions Kate has opted for repeats. In 2016 she wore a Michael Kors plaid skirt suit, and last year she donned her forest green Sportmax coat.
Kate will celebrate her 36th birthday on Tuesday and she'll resume her royal duties the following day when she makes a solo visit to the Reach Academy Feltham.
