Spring has officially sprung (yesterday, 20 March marked the first day of the new season) and the pregnant Duchess of Cambridge has dressed for the occasion in a mint green ensemble today.
The 36-year-old royal is co-hosting an event with The Royal Foundation this morning at the Royal Society of Medicine in London. The symposium is to be attended by leading academics and charities championing early intervention into the lives of children.
“Her Royal Highness is bringing together academics, researchers, practitioners, educators and charities to discuss perinatal, maternal and infant mental health; parenting support; and resources for schools,” The @KensingtonPalace Twitter account tweeted.

For the event, the Duchess dressed in a brand new maternity outfit – and a brand new colour scheme. While Kate usually sticks to a fairly neautral colour palette of navy, cream and florals (with the odd pop of hot pink), she opted for a bold, and fresh, green look today.
The royal paired a knee-length dress with a bespoke matching coat by one of her go-to labels, Jenny Packham. The beautiful design boasts a bow as the necktie and gold-trimmed buttons on the sleeve.
Kate’s finished the look with a pair of Kiki McDonough earrings (that she’s worn before) and her praline Gianvito Rossi pumps, which she debuted in Belgium last year.
She finished the look with her trusty Loeffler Randall clutch.

The Duchess is currently in her third trimester of her third pregnancy, with her baby due to arrive next month ahead of the royal wedding on 19 May 2018.
It’s not yet been revealed when the Duchess will go on maternity leave. The royal took around a month off before her children Prince George and Princess Charlotte were born, so this could well be her last moment in the spotlight before her third child with Prince William arrives.
