Thrifty royal Kate Middleton re-wore another piece of clothing this weekend as she watched the rugby at Cardiff’s Millennium Stadium.

Watching her adopted home team Wales play New Zealand on Saturday, she chose a patriotic red coat from her favourite brand L.K.Bennett’s autumn/winter 2011 collection, which she had previously worn last November on a visit to UNICEF’s Emergency Supply Centre in Copenhagen.

As an expert at mixing high street and designer pieces, Middleton teamed the knee-length coat with a red clutch from ’s 1921 collection, black boots and her signature glossy blow-dry.

The Duchess looked in particularly high spirits before the match as she chatted with injured players who are supported by her husband Prince William’s charity, the Welsh Rugby Charitable Trust.
