Wardrobe dilemma: The Duchess of Cambridge will need an outfit for church, including a hat, a long dress for dinner and at least one other for lunch
Spending your first Christmas with the in-laws can be a daunting experience.
But when the occasion involves the Royal family, nerve-racking is a more fitting description.
The Duchess of Cambridge faces the ultimate wardrobe dilemma for her upcoming stay at Sandringham - where she could be expected to change outfits several times in one day.
It's no wonder Kate has been spotted shopping on the King's Road recently, probably in search of suitable pieces for her upcoming trip.
Thankfully the Duchess has a natural instinct for appropriate attire and will no doubt look near perfect for every event.
Royal etiquette expert Jean Broke-Smith told Grazia magazine that the Duchess could be expected to change outfits up to five times in a single day.
'She won't be able to wear the same outfit twice,' she said.
'Kate will need a casual outfit for breakfast, a smart outfit - and a hat - for the morning church service, a dress for lunch, a cocktail dress for early evening drinks and a full-length dress for the evening meal.
Pressure: Kate will spend the occasion wit the Royal family
'The golden rule is nothing too short, too revealing or too gaudy.'
The Palace, however, has dismissed the idea that Catherine will be required to change so many times.
Kate has been seen shopping at Zara, LK Bennett where she reportedly picked up a black sheath dress and two cashmere cardigans.
For a more high-end look, she is said to have ordered two evening dresses from Alexander McQueen - the label she chose for her wedding gown to marry Prince William.
If the heavy sartorial pace isn't enough pressure, imagine having to pick a Christmas gift for the Queen...
