We love to see Kate Middleton wearing tiaras and ball gowns, but we're just as fascinated by her very stylish dressed-down wardrobe. From her pre-royal days, through to pregnancies and royal tours, here's our photo gallery of all the times the Duchess of Cambridge went for a casual outfit instead of a formal ensemble – a looked extremely good doing it!On January 30, 2018, the pregnant Duchess of Cambridge stepped out onto the ice in Stockholm wearing the perfect winter outfit: a cozy Burberry coat, sweater by Swedish designer Fjallraven, jeans and a bobble hat.

Following on from the exciting news of her brother-in-law Prince Harry's engagement, the Duchess of Cambridge continued with her official duties on November 29, 2017 as she visited the Robin Hood Primary School in central London. The pregnant royal, who will welcome her third child in April, went for cozy comfort in black jeans, a Barbour jacket and chunky turtleneck sweater by Temperley London. The Duchess finished the look with her trusty flat brown boots by Penelope Chilvers.Photo: Getty Images

On October 31, 2017, a pregnant Duchess of Cambridge was casual and comfortable as she made an appearance at The Lawn Tennis Association (LTA). Prince William's wife, who is expecting the couple's third child, had a spring in her step – maybe thanks to her Nike Air VaporMax Flyknit sneakers! – as she arrived in in a black zip-up jacket that skimmed over her baby bump, and a pair of Monreal London sweatpants. The royal kept her jewelery to a bare minimum for the sporty day out – stud earrings, her iconic engagement ring and a Remembrance poppy, which was pinned just underneath her lapel.
