Back in August Kate was seen shopping at Tesco (a place she often shops for groceries apparently).
Thanks to the blog "Duchess Kate" for the pictures and extensive info on Kate's shopping trip (

Here are some pictures of Kate, wearing a look that you can easily emmulate!
Kate is seen wearing a purple crew-neck sweater (unidentified), light blue skinny jeans (unidentified), and(thanks to "Duchess Kate" and her blog) an Aquascutum scarf and simple black flats with a bow detail.
This is how you can get this look:
Here are two options for sweaters, one from Gap and one from Banana Republic - great stores that carry timeless pieces that are similar to the ones that you are sure to see Kate wearing!
The Gap sweater is $49.95 and a crew-neck, like Kate's sweater, but the colour is perhaps a bit too vivid. However, the point here is to find similar looks to Kate's that will suit you, so you can still feel comfortable while emulating Kate's classic, effortless and sophisticated style.
The option from Banana Republic costs $74.00 and the colour is much closer to what Kate is seen wearing above, but the v-neck creates a dissimilarity - I believe that I may have referenced this style of sweater before in another post (this sweater comes in an array of different colours).
Kate's jeans (in this picture) are a lighter wash than we usually see her wearing. But you can find a jean like hers probably in your favourite store where you buy jeans. However, if not, here are some options from Gap, ranging in price from $42.99-$49.99 (they are currently on sale).
These three pictures show different styles of jeans, from straight, to skinny, to "slim" boot-cut. Find what works best for your body-type or style. The important thing is to be comfortable with what you're wearing. But these washes are very close to what Kate is seen to be wearing above. So you really can't go wrong.
If you're looking for something a little less expensive, check out Gap's scarves, retailing for $34.95, or any other store that would sell scarves, and look for a similar checked pattern!
Finally, to copy Kate's shoes look no further than your local ALDO store! These shoes are now on sale for only $16.98!!!
Now, put your hair up into a bun and you're good to go!
