Hi Royal Clubbers, it’s Iona here with news of Princess Catherine who earlier today saw some incredible collectables and artwork on a visit to a newly opened attraction in east London.

The venue in question was the V&A’s east London storehouse which offers free public access to the museum’s world-famous collection of more than 600,000 treasures across many creative disciplines.

The royal learnt about its ‘‘order an object’’ system, where different treasures or antiques can be requested and a room can be set aside for a viewing. Catherine’s random selection of items included a large William Morris sample, a musical instrument, and some rolls of ornate textiles.

Catherine was in high spirits, laughing away, and even commented that the collection was ‘‘eclectic’’.

Unsurprisingly stylish, she wore a navy blue Alexander McQueen suit, a smart, fitted white top and stiletto heels. This business-casual look may be familiar to royal lovers as Kate last wore it in December 2023 when she stepped out at Evelina London Children's Hospital.

However, the heels were a slight rule breaker, as on the storehouse website it does advise wearing flat shoes, but Catherine walked effortlessly anyway.
