The Duchess of Cambridge visited The Nook in Norfolk on Thursday to mark the end of Children's Hospice Week.
During her visit as Patron of East Anglia’s Children’s Hospices (EACH), Kate helped create a patio garden, using plants bought during her visit to Fakenham Garden Centre last week.

The Duchess worked alongside an EACH volunteer gardener to plant a garden that will provide enjoyment for children and families.
Kate also spent time with families using The Nook care facilities.
The Duchess also recorded a message for all children's hospices as part of Children's Hospice Week:
Kate looked fabulous in florals, sporting a new dress by Faithfull the Brand (ID by @regalreplikate). It is the label's $189 'Marie-Louise' style, decorated with colorful hand-painted blooms against a lilac backdrop, and shirred at the sleeves and bust to create an empire shape. 
The Nefeli Floral print is also seen on a mini dress and midi skirt.
Faithfull the Brand is a label we have not seen Kate wear before. Founded in Bali in 2012, Faithfull is the brainchild of Sarah-Jane Abrahams and Helle Them-Enger. It melds their respective Australian easy-going spirit with Scandinavian chic minimalism. Each piece is hand-dyed, printed and made by local artisans in Indonesia. The collections are rooted in the spirit of travel, and many of the patterns are inspired by fabrics collected from vintage markets all over the world. Here's a small curation of other Faithfull pieces I can see Kate adding to her closet!
The Duchess accessorized with her Accessorize Twisted Circle Drop Earrings.

The Duchess of Cambridge will lead an online assembly on Kindness for the Oak National Academy tomorrow (Thursday 18th June) in her role as Patron of Place2Be.
The video was recorded last week and a snippet was released today. The Duchess will use a lesson plan from the charity's Mentally Healthy Schools Platform, where schools can find hundreds of resources to help them support their pupils' wellbeing.
Tune in from 10 am (local time) tomorrow to watch the full assembly which will be available on Youtube:
Kate wore a floral print garment by M&S. The print is available on a dress and top from the UK retailer. At this point, I'm not sure which piece the Duchess wore.
An elasticated shirring detail creates a waist-defining silhouette, while short sleeves with pleating at the shoulders add volume. Below is a closer look at the floral cabbage print.
The Duchess of Cambridge has shared a message encouraging people to take part in her 'Hold Still' community-based photography project with the National Portrait Gallery of London.
Since its launch in early May, some 12,000 images have been submitted so far. Deadlines for entries close on 18th June. In today's video, Kate is seen wearing her ultra-blue Stella McCartney 'Ridley' Stretch Cady Dress and Accessorize Twisted Circle Drop Earrings.

On the video call held last week, Action on Addiction’s CEO Graham Beech gave The Duchess a virtual tour and spoke about the importance of reaching out for help during the pandemic. Kate wore a red button front blouse or dress with contrast collar lining. I will update the post if it's identified.
ID UPDATE (15 AUG 2020):
The piece is the Hobbs London ‘Loreley' Shirtdress from the brand's s/s 2012 collection. The retailer classified the red colourway as ‘Deep Jasper’ - possibly a nod to the hue of a jasper stone. 
It appears the Duchess accessorized with her Daniella Draper hoops which form part of the shamrock charm earrings Kate debuted in Ireland.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have paid tribute to Australia's frontline workers in a video message released by Kensington Palace today to mark the country's inaugural Thank a First Responder Day.
The Duchess appears to have worn her yellow Roksanda Ilincic colour-block dress which she debuted on the steps of the Sydney Opera House during the 2014 royal tour. The dress is a custom version of the designer's 'Ryedale' wool-crepe dress. Kate's dress is rendered in yellow with ivory block accents. The original design was also modified with a square neckline and fitted sleeves. 
With her hair pulled back in a half up-do it was easy to spot her gold Catherine Zoraida Fern Drop Earrings.
