Kate Middleton did her second engagement this week today, attending the National Portrait Gallery Workshop at Evelina London Children's Hospital. Kate is patron of both organizations.

The Duchess of Cambridge rewore her Dolce & Gabbana tweed skirt suit to the outing—a look she first wore a year ago at the Royal Foundation's Mental Health in Education conference. She styled her look today with sheer black tights, dangle earrings, and black wedge heels. It was pretty gusty on the way in, and the wind appeared to take Kate off guard:

Once inside, she was relaxed and all smiles again:

Last year, she wore sheer tights too with a clutch and wedge heels when she wore the tweed skirt suit:

Kate also rewore her Catherine Walker coat dress that she wore with the Queen last year to the UK Holocaust Memorial Ceremony yesterday. She attended the event with her husband Prince William.

The outing came shortly after Kensington Palace announced that Kate had done portraits of two Holocaust survivors with their grandchildren and unveiled them on its Instagram. “I wanted to make the portraits deeply personal to Yvonne and Steven—a celebration of family and the life that they have built since they both arrived in Britain in the 1940s," Kate said in a statement accompanying the photos. "The families brought items of personal significance with them which are included in the photographs. It was a true honor to have been asked to participate in this project and I hope in some way Yvonne and Steven’s memories will be kept alive as they pass the baton to the next generation.”

As part of the commemorations for the 75th anniversary of the end of the Holocaust, The Duchess of Cambridge has taken photographs of two Holocaust survivors with their grandchildren. The first photograph features Steven Frank with his granddaughters, Maggie and Trixie. Alongside his mother and brothers, Steven was sent to Westerbork transit camp then to Theresienstadt. Steven and his brothers were 3 of only 93 children who survived the camp - 15,000 children were sent there. The Duchess also photographed Yvonne Bernstein with her granddaughter Chloe. Yvonne was a hidden child in France, travelling in the care of her aunt and uncle and frequently changing homes and names. The Duchess said: “I wanted to make the portraits deeply personal to Yvonne and Steven – a celebration of family and the life that they have built since they both arrived in Britain in the 1940s. The families brought items of personal significance with them which are included in the photographs. It was a true honour to have been asked to participate in this project and I hope in some way Yvonne and Steven’s memories will be kept alive as they pass the baton to the next generation.” The portraits will form part of a new exhibition opening later this year by @holocaustmemorialdaytrust, Jewish News and @royalphotographicsociety , which will feature 75 images of survivors and their family members. The exhibition will honour the victims of the Holocaust and celebrate the full lives that survivors have built in the UK, whilst inspiring people to consider their own responsibility to remember and share the stories of those who endured Nazi persecution.
