Pippa Middleton showed up in the Kensington neighborhood of London, England this afternoon (May 8).

The beautiful British socialite donned a cream colored jacket with a black top and dark wash skinny jeans as she made her rounds and smiled for the shutterbugs.

Meanwhile, Pippa has been receiving some flak for her recent article in Waitrose Magazine entitled “Friday Night Feasts- The Provencal Picnic.”

Naysayers are complaining that Middleton’s meal is much too expensive and a bit out of touch with the needs of most of her readers.

In the article, she writes, “Here’s my vision of the perfect picnic. I’m in Provence, in a field just off the beaten track, where we’ve parked the car and thrown a quilted rug across the dry, parched grasses. The hazy sky is cobalt blue, cicadas hum around us and it’s hot, very hot. But not too hot for a picnic. Around us are plump peaches, figs and strawberries, oozing ripe cheeses and crunchy baguettes, torn and ready to mop up every last morsel,” before suggesting some prep-heavy, wallet-emptying ingredients.
