Queen Elizabeth II officially celebrated her 93rd birthday today with the Trooping the Colour parade. Although Her Majesty was born on 21 April, it has long been the tradition to publicly celebrate the Monarch's birthday on a day in the summer.
The Duchess of Cambridge attended her ninth consecutive Trooping the Colour event.
For the procession down the Mall, Kate rode in a carriage with Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, and the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
Meanwhile, Prince William was on horseback alongside his father, the Duke of York, and Princess Anne, in their roles as Colonels.
Following the parade, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were reunited on the balcony at Buckingham Palace for the traditional RAF fly-past where they were joined by their adorable children, with Prince Louis making his balcony debut.
Kate looked radiant today in a soft yellow dress by Alexander McQueen. The bespoke design features an elongated folded v-neckline collar, a peplum waist, 3/4 sleeves, and McQueen's signature peaked shoulders.
The pastel hue is consistent with the subtle tones of previous years, bar 2017, when Kate opted for a vibrant pink Alexander McQueen dress. The Duchess has worn Alexander McQueen on all occasions expect 2012 when she debuted an Erdem dress, and in 2015 when she wore Catherine Walker's 'Astrid' coatdress.
Today, the Kate donned her Philip Treacy slice hat with rosettes. You may recall she debuted the piece at Prince Harry and Meghan Marke's wedding ceremony in May 2018.
We saw the return of the Bahrain Pearl Drop Earrings, on loan from Queen Elizabeth II's royal jewellery collection.
The earrings were complemented with a new diamond cross pendant necklace.
Kate carried her white Alexander McQueen butterfly box clutch (US$2,890).
It's always a treat to see the extended royal family enjoying the celebrations for Her Majesty's birthday.

This would have to be my favourite outfit so far. A beautiful colour and dress. Stunning look for the Duchess. Very elegant, her up do I loved, the hat sealed the deal. Her accessories, bag (gorgeous) earrings are divine, love the necklace she is wearing. A total win! The Duke and Duchess have a lovely little family.

The duchess looks lovely as usual. This is a good colour on her. Her outfits are predictable, but why change a winning team? It works for her and she knows it. As excited as I would be to watch her wear something more edgy, I respect her for staying true to what she does best. The kids had fun, the Cambridges look like they are doing a wonderful job as parents and it shows! That's their biggest accomplishment as far as I am concerned.

This is a a stunning and classy outfit that befits the occasion being celebrated. I love this hat. You have to celebrate Kate and her hair stylist for how well the hair looks and sits under this challenging hat. Well done to Duchess Kate for nailing this look. It is tricky to see that the folio picture of the earrings match exactly to what she is wearing but the detail is hard to see in the close up above.

Kate looks lovely in yellow. Especially that hat from Meghan's wedding.

From my observation of all the pictures, I notice Kate was wearing her cross too with a little change, because I love wearing my diamond cross and always observe what others wear too. In another pictures Kate was carrying a white clutch and it was said it was an Alexander McQueen style called the Butterfly Box clutch. Did anyone see what color shoes she was wearing, hopefully white pumps. Kate outfit is perfection. 💛
