Kate Middleton was seen shopping at Finlay in the Notting Hill neighborhood of London Tuesday, dressed in a casual yet chic winter look.

While it’s unclear what she purchased, the Princess of Wales left with a shopping bag and has been spotted wearing the brand’s sunglasses on many occasions.

The royal bundled up in a navy Max&Co. wool coat ($690), which she also owns in camel and pink, along with gray Sézane trousers ($160).

Middleton accessorized with a Smythson bag ($1,195), Kiki McDonough diamond leaf-shaped earrings ($2,842) and an Aquascutum plaid scarf ($166) she’s had since 2011 — and wore on her first-ever royal tour after her wedding to Prince William that year.

The solo appearance comes just one week after Middleton announced she’s now in remission after her cancer journey last year.

She announced the good news on Instagram alongside photos from her surprise visit to the Royal Marsden Hospital in London, where she received treatment, adding that she and her husband have taken on the role of Joint Patrons of the hospital.

For the visit, during which Middleton met with current cancer patients, she wore an all-burgundy look that included a tartan Blazé Milano overcoat with a cashmere turtleneck and pleated midi skirt.

Earlier this month, the mom of three rang in her 43rd birthday and enjoyed a post-Christmas ski trip in the Alps with Prince William and their children Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 9, and Prince Louis, 6.

The Prince of Wales, 42, shared a new photo of Middleton — who was perhaps wearing the same plaid scarf from her outing — in honor of her birthday, penning a tribute to his “incredible” wife.

“The strength you’ve shown over the last year has been remarkable,” he wrote, adding that both he and their children are “so proud” of her.

We can’t wait to see more of Middleton in 2025.
