Will & Kate Sport Cowboy Hats To Calgary Rodeo & Stampede (PHOTOS)

The Huffington Post     First Posted: 07/08/2011 7:27 am   Updated: 09/07/2011 5:12 am

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge took Calgary on Thursday, arriving at the city's airport and heading over to a rodeo demonstration as part of a government reception at the BMO Centre.

The pair of activities meant a pair of outfits for the former-Kate Middleton. She stepped off the plane in a canary yellow "Primrose Dress," with puffed sleeves, a collar and a flyaway skirt by Jenny Packham. She completed the look with her LK Bennett Sledge2 pumps and Natalie clutch.

But such a frock wouldn't do to watch bucking livestock bounce around. So Catherine made a quick change into a Western-inspired Alice by Temperley "Armonia" blouse, slouchy jeans, cowgirl boots -- and, of course, a ten-gallon hat.

On Friday morning, William and Kate kicked off the Calgary Stampede. Wills, who apparently unlike every guy we know only owns one plaid shirt, repeated his button-down from the day before. Catherine picked a lacy blouse (the Temperley "Rodeo Shirt", in fact) for the occasion. They later visited the Calgary Zoo, where she debuted a crimson Catherine Walker coat and dress, and Queen Elizabeth's maple leaf brooch, also seen on Canada Day.

Check out the Duchess on days eight and nine of their trip. And for more, take a sneak peek inside her luggage here.

They sure are a nice looking couple. I hope they have many happy years together.

Catherine has such a good figure, she can look good in wearing just about anything. Both Catherine and William both looked good in their white hats.

I wish I could see William wear a suit in a tweed. I just love tweed suits and would like to see a comeback on tweeds; also corduroy and suede-look suit jackets in a tan color looks good as well, with Hush Puppies or suede shoes. Of course, I am not a fashion expert, just saying what I like to see men wear.
