Amazing style seems to be hereditary in the Middleton family. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge stepped out for church Sunday morning and not only were they joined by Queen Elizabeth, but Pippa Middleton and her parents attended as well. An entire-family outing—just before Kate Middleton's birthday!

The group headed to Sandringham's St. Mary Magdalene Church in Norfolk, England, and the Middleton women all looked impeccably put together. The duchess, who celebrates her 35th birthday on Monday, Jan. 9, was fully prepared for winter weather in her forest green peacoat and gray fur hat. She attended alongside her husband, Prince William, who opted for a knee-length black coat over a sharp white shirt and black tie.

Younger sister Pippa Middleton was at the service as well and wore a brown double-breasted, knee-length coat and matching hat. She accessorized her look with black gloves and simple high-heeled pumps.

A family outing wouldn't be complete without Mom and Dad, though. Carole and Michael Middleton joined their daughters (and son, James) for the occasion, and made it clear where the two women got their fashion sense. Mrs. Middleton was dressed to the nines in a structured black coat, gray fur neck cuff, and matching pillbox hat. She carried a simple black clutch and sported black gloves and heels, just like her daughter. Her husband looked equally sharp in his black coat, blue shirt, and maroon tie.

It seems as though Queen Elizabeth is feeling better, as this was her first public outing since falling ill over the holidays. She attended the morning ceremony wearing a bold blue coat and matching hat, which was adorned with a striking blue feather. The queen completed her simple, yet elegant look with a pearl necklace, a sparkling broach, and black gloves.
