Chic: Pippa Middleton arrives with brother James to watch the action at Wimbledon from the royal box on Centre Court
Pippa Middleton today made her 2012 debut in the Wimbledon royal box as she arrived to watch the day's action on Centre Court.
Neat in a navy Orla Kiely dress and buttoned-up macrame jacket, the Duchess of Cambridge's younger sister took her seat in the box with her brother James to watch Andy Murray battle for his place in the third round.
Pippa, 28, a keen tennis fan, sat alongside Felicity Kendal and her son Jake Rudman, and the three soon struck up conversation.
Classic style: Pippa wore a chic navy Orla Kiely dress with an Orla Kiely macrame jacket buttoned over the top. She carried an Ermanno Scervino bag and wore Givenchy's Obsedia sunglasses, £159
The Middletons, who attracted a flurry of attention as they entered the grounds earlier today, had clearly made an effort to put across a polished appearance in the hallowed royal box.
Pippa is a member of the Queen's Tennis Club and a regular face at the tournament.
Last year she attended with her ex-boyfriend, Alex Louden and her parents Michael and Carole, all of whom watched the action from the royal box.
This year, Carole Middleton also attended - she watched Roger Federer take on Fabio Fognini on Centre Court yesterday.
Unlike last year, Mrs Middleton did not sit in the royal box, where Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall were joined by Bruce Forsyth and his wife Wilnelia.
Instead, she joined the general public in the stands.
Among the other guests in the royal box today was actress Felicity Kendal.
