The Cambridges' Christmas Card & Princess Charlotte to Begin Nursery in January!
As hoped for, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge released a new photograph of their family to mark the festive season. The image of William, Kate, George and Charlotte features on their Christmas card this year.
The photo was taken by Chris Jackson at Kensington Palace earlier this year. I expect at the same time as Prince George's birthday portrait, as he's wearing the same outfit. Jackson wrote on Instagram "Delighted that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have chosen to use this family portrait I shot as their Christmas Card this year, Merry Christmas."
All four sported coordinated blue ensembles for the photo. You might recall, Charlotte wore the same pretty blue dress, shoes and bow for the Royal tour of Germany, when the family landed in Berlin.
The Duchess wore her bespoke blue Catherine Walker skirt suit. Kate debuted the ensemble for her first solo overseas visit to the Netherlands last year.
A closer look at Kate.
Last year, William and Kate chose a lovely image of the family taken during the Royal tour of Canada for their Christmas card photo.
And in 2014, they released adorable photos of Prince George taken on the steps of Kensington Palace by Prince Harry's private secretary Ed Lane Fox.

The release of the Christmas card photo coincides with news Princess Charlotte will attend the Willcocks Nursery School in London from January 2018.
It was thought William and Kate might choose the nursery at Thomas's Battersea, where Prince George attends. The Willcocks Nursery School said: "We are delighted that The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have chosen the Willcocks Nursery School for Princess Charlotte. We look forward to welcoming Charlotte to our nursery in January."
The school was founded in 1964 by Miss Diana Willcocks and has been at its current location in the church hall of Holy Trinity Church, Prince Consort Road, London since 1984. The school is owned and run by the Headmistress, Lavinia Taylor, and her fellow teachers, Louise Ward, Sarah Walker, Rosa Rego Dias and Jennifer Robbins. The Willcocks Nursery is a traditional nursery school which strives to maintain its ethos for high standards, excellence and good manners.
'The school, which is close to the family's Kensington Palace home, charges up to £9,150 a year for children who attend morning sessions. Described by parents as "kind and gentle", the school has an all-female staff and its stated ethos is "for high standards, excellence and good manners". Princess Charlotte will be at first be invited with the Duke and Duchess for a short "stay and play" session, the nursery's website suggests. The Royal couple will then be asked to leave to see if their daughter, who will be encouraged to bring a photograph or toy from home, "is happy to be left".
It has a timetable full of singing and dancing, which will suit Princess Charlotte who, according to the Duchess of Cambridge, "already loves to dance". Children can expect to have time dedicated to exploring the great outdoors, looking at local swans and cygnets and being taught a variety of skills including poetry, band and cooking. There is a large focus on art and music. The nursery is also perfectly located for inquisitive young minds. Tatler says: "They're just by the Royal Albert Hall, so expect jaunts to the museums and the park, as well as captivating talks on things like Shackleton, archaeology or the environment to keep things lively and fun."
One former pupil, Alexander, said: “I just love all my teachers because I just do. They are beautiful, they are kind and they all just love me." A mother, Nicoleta, sang the praises of the nursery, writing: “Alexander the Great once said about his teacher Aristotle: ‘I owe my life to my parents, but I owe my good life to my teacher’. This statement certainly applies to all the teachers at the Willcocks Nursery School. A big thank you to all of you for everything you offered to Alexandra and for creating happy precious memories that will be part of who she is for the rest of her life.”
It looks like a lovely choice, ideally located near Kensington Palace. I have no doubt Charlotte will be very happy there.
We'll see you over the next couple of days for the Queen's pre-Christmas luncheon :)
