The Duchess of Cornwall appeared in high spirits today as she visited a youth centre in Brent as part of her tour of this year’s London Borough of Culture.
Camilla, 72, brightened up the dreary day in a royal blue, tailored coat as she was greeted by dozens of well wishers at the Granville Youth Centre.
She paired her stylish jacket, which featured statement, metallic buttons, with a pair of black heeled boots and leather gloves for the occasion.
The royal completed her chic ensemble with a navy pinafore-style dress, teaming it with a long-sleeved white blouse, which had a high neck and pleated cuffs.

The London Borough of Culture Award ‘puts culture at the heart of local communities’, and aims to inspire the potential of young people and bring Londoners together.
The award, which was launched by the Mayor of London in June 2017, was inspired by the UK City and European Capital of Culture programmes.
This year, the borough of Brent will present high profile cultural events and activities throughout the year, with hundreds of residents taking part.
Highlights will include a new work by author Zadie Smith, who hails from the area, and a mile-long summer street party on the Kilburn High Road.

Camilla’s outing continues a busy week of engagements for the Duchess, who hosted a reception for ‘Versus Arthritis’ at her home in Clarence House in London on Tuesday.
During the course of the evening, she was seen shaking hands with and engaging in conversation with members of staff who work for the charity.
The Duchess has previously helped throw the spotlight on the related crippling bone condition of osteoporisis after describing how it killed her late mother, Rosalind.
Versus Arthritis is the UK’s largest charity dedicated to supporting people with arthritis.
