We know what Kate will be wearing this summer! The Duchess of Cambridge returned to one of her favorite London shopping spots — King’s Road — on Saturday, stopping by retailer Jaeger before popping into a nearby French Connection store. While there, she picked up a winter silk vest top (left, on sale in the U.K.) in the cool blue “Iceberg” hue.
“She was very polite. She keeps to herself,” a store employee tells PEOPLE. “She was chatting to one of my colleagues in the fitting room, asking her opinion about something.”
The sales clerk noticed two men with the Duchess — bodyguards, perhaps — but says onlookers left her alone. “Some customers did notice her, although I didn’t at first,” the clerk adds.
After trying the top in two sizes — “She didn’t ask anyone to fetch it for her, she just seemed to want to be low key,” the employee says — the Duchess paid and left the store. “She was very cheery, very smiley,” the clerk shares.
