The Duchess of Cambridge has been shopping for her nursery ahead of the arrival of her and Prince William's first child.

The Duchess of Cambridge, whose maiden name is Kate Middleton, was spotted shopping at high-end fabric and soft furnishings store Bernard Thorp in Chelsea, London, on June 4, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

The 31-year-old, who is believed to be due to give birth July 13, spent 45 minutes in the shop looking for items for her baby's nursery at Kensington Palace and picked out a number of beige and brown fabrics.

"Kate was fascinated by all the designs and picked out two. She had very definite ideas about what she liked," said a source.

"The duchess was charming and so lovely. She didn't put on any airs or graces. She said she's got so many ideas after coming in," the source added.
