Frugal Kate spends £35,000 on clothes since beginning of the year

For a self-proclaimed Queen of the High Street, she has embraced the joys of designer shopping most enthusiastically.
Indeed, a quick tot up of her recent purchases suggests the increasingly glamorous Duchess of Cambridge has spent more than £35,000 on couture and ‘high end’ outfits since the beginning of the year alone.
Quite a turnaround, then, for the young woman who, shortly after her wedding last year, insisted she did not want to be seen as a ‘clothes horse’ and went on her honeymoon in a £49.99 Zara dress.
