Returning from fall break, the Prince and Princess of Wales resumed royal duties as they visited the Natural History Museum in London on Thursday September 4th to explore the newly renovated gardens. Kate has served as patron of the museum since 2013 and makes frequent trips to the NHM London to view new exhibits and installations.
For the outing, the princess made headlines with her new blonde hairdo. Styled in cascading curls — the princess stole the show with her dark blonde or so-called “bronde” hair color. There was fervent speculation online as to whether the princess was sun-kissed from summer holidays or merely wanted a fresh look courtesy of butterscotch highlights.
The princess’ new hair transformation included longer layers, caramel toned highlights and more volume with plenty of conspicuous curls.
At the museum, the Wales learned about the National Education Nature Park Program and explored how the museum is using environmental education and storytelling to engage schoolchildren and teach them about science and the natural world
For the outing, Kate opted to wear a past season Ralph Lauren Herringbone Tweed Jacket.
The equestrian-inspired jacket is made of wool with a single breast pocket and two front flap pockets (similar).
She paired the jacket with a new button down from WNU (With Nothing Underneath). Kate donned the brand’s Boyfriend Shirt made of 100% Tencel in the shade off-white.
The princess donned slim ankle-length capri trousers in a dark emerald green which have yet to be identified.
