Kate wears her heart on her sleeve while stepping out to commemorate Children's Mental Health Week

The <a href="https://ca.hellomagazine.com/tags/0/kate-middleton"><strong>Duchess of Cambridge</strong></a> wore her heart on her sleeve while stepping out in support of Place2Be, a school-based mental health support program for which the mother of three is a royal patron. Dressed in the chicest of outfits – and not forgetting her megawatt smile – the duchess met with students and teachers (like the world's best teacher, Andria Zafirakou!) to talk about how to increase wellbeing in schools in commemoration of Children's Mental Health Week. She stopped by Alperton Community School and Lavender Primary School for some sweet moments with kids... And a lucky puppy! <p><strong>Click through for all the best moments from her visit...</strong> <p>Photo: &copy; Chris Jackson/Getty Images
Kate looked no further than London-based bespoke brand Eponine. The duchess wowed in the bright green jumper ensemble, paired with the chicest of lace-up booties and opaque black tights to make the colour really pop. As always, the 37-year-old wore her beautiful hair in bouncy, voluminous waves and accessorized with and a small black clutch. <p>Photo: &copy; Neil Mockford/Getty Images
The duchess's natural beauty shined through with a simple makeup look – a bit of bronzer, a subtle smoky eye and a pink lip. Kate also wore the sweetest pair of heart drop earrings. <p>Photo: &copy; Chris Jackson/Getty Images
