Puddly sidewalks won’t keep Kate Middleton from her stilettos.

Despite the rainy weather, the Duchess of Cambridge wore a pair of high-heeled, pointed-toe Ralph Lauren boots that were fabricated in suede today in Leicestershire, U.K. She teamed the boots with a navy Alexander McQueen coat that had military-inspired details, including buttons at the waist and a high collar. Kate also carried a mini bag from the British label.
