The Princess of Wales joined her husband, Prince William, who is colonel of the regiment of the 1st Battalion Welsh Guards as of December, in meeting soldiers, wearing a red wool statement coat from Alexander McQueen and black block-heel boots with a pointed toe from Gianvito Rossi. She accessorized with a small crocodile-embossed crossbody bag in black from Mulberry that she used as a top-handle bag, a fascinator from Jules Millinery with a bow accent and black leather gloves from Evica Gloves. For jewelry, she wore small diamond earrings and added a leek brooch to her coat. Leeks are worn by Welsh soldiers to celebrate St. David’s guidance in a battle against the Saxons.
