They then got right into the thick of things, heading straight to a meeting with the the President of Ireland, Michael D. Higgins.

Wearing a stunning Alessandra Rich green printed dress, Kate was every bit the elegant Princess – and aptly dressed in the country’s iconic colour.

We were also thrilled to see the Duchess rock one of her most iconic accessories – a headband. The style in question is believed to be from High Street retailer Zara.

You might have also noticed the Kate’s enviable locks were looking a little shorter. It seems Ireland was the perfect time to debut her new chop!

Oh, and did we mention the AUD$33,577 diamonds she wore on her ears? The Asprey designs were nothing short of heavenly.

Kate was glowing in a headband and some glitzy diamonds.
