Practical Duchess, Kate Middleton, Loves Discount Bins, Sale Racks

It's evident how elegant the Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Midldeton, carries herself in public gatherings. Her impeccable fashion sense is mainly the reason why many idolize her, but it's her practical sensibility that puts her above all other ladies from Royal families.

When she's not donning numbers from high-fashion labels such as Alexander Mc Queen or Stella McCartney, Catherine likes to shop at affordable stores like TopShop, J.Crew, and even Forever 21. Her practicality is probably the main reason why many women can relate to her style, and it gets better when news came out that the Duchess is crazy for deals that can save her up to 60% off the original price.

Mark Elwood, a sales expert in Oxfordshire's Bicester Village, says the Duchess is regularly spotted flipping hangers in the 60% rack over at Reiss' outlet store. While doing some research in the famous shopping hub, Elwood unearthed some surprising stories from shop girls, including frequent sightings of the Duchess of Cambridge shopping with her friends.

"You look up and there'll be Kate and her same two friends going through the 60 per cent off rack," says a Reiss shop keeper as reported by The Mirror.

"You have no idea she's there and security must be outside, but she comes in all the time. And she's totally different to the Prince of Thailand, who I heard shut down a restaurant and brought his own staff when he visited Bicester." added the source, who attested Catherine's down-to-earth persona.

In other news, Catherine and her husband Prince William have revealed the names of their son's godparents. Following the royal couple's style of breaking traditions, the couple chose godparents without blood ties to any royal family. Most of the godparents are close friends whom they have known since they were studying at the University of St. Andrews.
