Kate Middleton‘s third pregnancy hasn’t been the easiest journey, but despite morning sickness and occasional bad days, she still manages to fulfill her royal duties. The Duchess of Cambridge recently visited London for an important conference with Place2Be’s leaders.

As always, Kate was stylish in a sophisticated ensemble. For this day affair, the Duchess wore a wine-colored tunic dress from British label Goat, made complete with some sparkle. Kate opted to wear the “Empress” diamond drop earrings from Mappin & Webb, which complemented Kate’s sophisticated look perfectly.

Aside from her spot-on style, we also noticed that Kate’s baby bump is becoming a little more visible. She was wearing a loose-fitting garment to play down her midsection, but she was still showing through the fabric. Her protective maternal instincts were also noticeable as she was constantly covering her stomach area with her clutch.
