The Duchess looked elegant and ready for business in an emerald green skirt suit from one of her favorite high street brands, Hobbs. She premiered the green boiled-wool 'Sinead' peplum jacket (£189) and matching 'Sinead' pencil skirt (£110) from the British brand. They are older season pieces from the Hobbs AW 2015 collection and have unfortunately sold out.
