For shoes, the Duchess of Cambridge selected the same pumps she wore to last year’s Festival of Remembrance: Jimmy Choo‘s Romy heels. The court shoes featured a pointed toe, a black velvet upper and a slim stiletto heel. While not available for purchase in the fabrication chosen by the duchess, the Romy can be shopped in suede at Farfetch.com for just under $600.

To complete the look, the mother of three selected an Alexander McQueen clutch and a sparkly Zara headband. Puffy headbands are a major fall trend, and the Zara one is a relatively accessibly priced take on the fad — available on the brand’s site for just $30.
