Happy St. Patrick's Day From Prince William and Duchess Kate at they Visit the Irish Guards

Duchess Kate Visits with the Irish Guards Mascot on St. Pats Day

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have toasted St Patrick's Day with a pint of Guinness after watching a traditional parade of the Irish Guards.

William, who has been colonel of the regiment since 2011, arrived with Kate on Sunday morning for the couple's annual visit to the 1st Battalion at its base in Hounslow, west London.

Paying a sartorial tribute to Ireland's national day, Kate donned an emerald green coat from Alexander McQueen with a Lock & Co. hat and £510 Gianvito Rossi pumps, while her husband wore his Irish Guards Frock Coat.

The duchess added a pair of special edition green amethyst and green tourmaline earrings from Kiki McDonough. Read more from The Daily Mail.

Queen of Jewelry

Brooches, usually worn on the left shoulder, were a favourite for the royal and the Queen was believed to have over 100 in her collection. A selection that would go with an outfit were presented to her - usually three at a time - by her senior dresser and confidante Angela Kelly on special trays that once belonged to Queen Mary. The royal had a wide variety of different brooches which she often wore with her usual pearl earrings and necklace, including a spray of flowers brooch by the people and government of Australia during her Coronation tour of 1954./
