Princess Kate and Prince William Travel to Wales – One Detail Caught Fans’ Attention

On Wednesday, The Prince and Princess of Wales took a train to Pontypridd, in south Wales ahead of St David’s Day on 1 March.

In pictures that appeared on the couple’s official Instagram account, an image was shared of the pair walking along a busy platform, and Kate was seen carrying a tan commuter-style bag!

Kate’s carried similar styles before, but we believe this could be a new addition to her bag collection. It looks to be from Aspinal of London, a brand she frequently sports, and we think it could be the ‘Zipped East West Leather Tote Bag’ in tan.

Costing £450, the website describes the item: “A modern take on the staple tote bag, our Zipped East West Leather Tote Bag is a stylish must-have for everyday wear. Handcrafted from full-grain leather, an intentionally understated design effortlessly complements a variety of personal styles, while long straps ensure comfortable on-the-shoulder wear, ideal for long days spent running errands or between meetings.”

It seems that Kate knows the havoc commuter build-ups can cause; the royal couple’s visit was delayed by almost an hour due to train disruptions.

Back in 2021, Kate was photographed arriving at Glasgow station and stepping off the train, wearing a casual outfit which consisted of a black roll-neck jumper, skinny jeans, and a Ganni gilet. Swinging by her side was yet another fabulous tote bag.

In a photograph that was shared on the Network Rail Twitter page, Kate can be seen carrying Smythson’s ‘Panama Ciappa East West Tote’, which cost around £645 at the time.

Kate has the older black version, but it has since been updated and now comes in four different colours. So chic!
