In the past seven years since Kate Middleton said 'I do', she has clocked up the air miles on four epic world tours, and they have made for a truly dazzling display of gorgeous fashion choices. Blending High Street with haute couture, little-known local designers with the best of British, and megawatt glamour with understated elegance, it makes us wish there was another royal tour just around the corner.
Erdem in Quebec City: Blue is Kate's favourite colour, and when it comes to tour ensembles it doesn't get much better than this. She teamed her electric blue Erdem dress with taupe LK Bennett 'Sledge' pumps and matching clutch.
Jenny Packham in Calgary: For her arrival to the city, Kate wore primrose silk Jenny Packham, with her trusty LK Bennett 'Sledges', and citrine drop earrings from her favourite jewellery designer Kiki McDonough.
