She's not just a pretty face our Kate Middleton. She has a few handy fashion hints up her sleeve.
The latest idea comes in wearing the LK Bennett patent pump in a fresh nude colour. They're so good even her mum and sister have got in on the act, as they too have been spotted in the wonder shoe.
Not only does it suit the natural coloured dressed and light-classy dresses we see her sporting at the moment (The Epsom races and last night's charity Gala dinner), but it does wonders for adding a little length to the leg.
By keeping on the nude colour of the leg, the shoe gives the impression that the leg just keeps on going, as well as getting the extra height from the heel. It's something we struggle to find in any other colour shoe as we cut off the leg the second the eye spots another colour.
Though you might think it's all in the mind - if it's a confidence trick that's good enough for the Duchess, then it's good enough for us!
If £160 is a little out of your price range for the lovely LK Bennett show, then copy the look with this nude patent shoe from good ol' Asos for £45!
