She will be dressed up for Earthshot tomorrow night.

JMO, that plaid dress is not a good look.

The plaid dress was a lot better than Caroline Kennedy's lime green jacket. So odd for a dressy event in November.

They were at TD garden watching a basketball game for crying loud! Unless one is showing off, I think sneakers are preferred!

Yes people traditionally wear green to Celtics games, because it's the team color. Caroline Kennedy met William and Kate behind the scenes at the Celtics game, because her plane flight was delayed and she couldn't meet them at City Hall. I saw the photo of the meeting. She will also be hosting William at the Kennedy Library tomorrow, because Earthshot was inspired by President Kennedy's moonshot speech.

Celtics games are not dressy events, unless you're in the crazy expensive court side seats. Even then, not always. The mayor of Boston sat with William and Kate in those seats and she was not dressed up.

The Patriots are playing tonight at Gilette Stadium, I wonder she's going to attend wearing stilettos like she did last night at TD Garden?

Her variety of clothes this trip is fun, and not a dud in the bunch that I could see. She's doing a good job of showcasing British designers. I think, but could be wrong, that the classic plaid suit is Burberry. Someone tall and lean like she is carries off a tartan really well.

Of all of them, I like the slightly retro burgundy pants outfit the best, maybe. It has her now-trademark wink to the past, with her wearing a pink, " p u s s y-cat bow" blouse with it. Those bow blouses are such a pretty blast from the past.

And amusing that William coordinated his sweater with her trouser suit-- or vice versa, ha. What charming, deft ambassadors they are.

Re: Kate and William arrive in Boston

I live on The Cape about 60 miles away from Boston. Watching and reading the news from Boston about William and his wife, it appears that most of the residents there don't really care about them at all. I know the Cape residents don't. The ones who do care seem to be mesmerized by clothes and pretentiousness!

Re: Kate and William arrive in Boston

I'm not mesmerized by clothes or pretentiousness, I do enjoy fashion in general and I loathe pretentiousness.

Since the trip's focus is environmental causes, I do think it's a bad look that Kate is wearing so many new items. Especially after the tone deaf images and occurrences during their last tour in the Caribbean. They aren't perfect and above reproach.
