Kate Middleton is having a particularly stylish end of the year, as she has once again wowed us with a totally chic ensemble. The Princess of Wales, 40, clearly had a thing for print during her and Prince William’s U.S. tour earlier this month, as not only did she turn heads in a tartan Burberry dress just a few days earlier, but she also wowed in a houndstooth dress at Harvard University. And we haven’t been able to stop thinking about it!

The Princess Of Wales Stuns In Custom Emilia Wickstead Houndstooth Dress
On December 2nd, just a few hours before attending the Earthshot Prize Awards in *that* figure-hugging bright green rented Solace London dress, the Princess of Wales visited leading experts at the Center on the Developing Child at Harvard University. As it was a solo trip, the Duchess of Cambridge knew she had to present a powerful look; and it was mission accomplished!
The mom-of-three wore a head-turning custom, long-sleeved version of Emilia Wickstead's 'Miles' midi dress with all-over houndstooth print, complete with a sharp pointed collar and a subtle waist-defining belt. She paired the bold dress with some Gianvito Rossi suede pumps and a cornflower blue Mulberry 'Harlow' satchel, and wore her hair in her signature bouncy down do, with her Lenique Louis gold spine hoop earrings peeking through.
