The first official image of the royal cutie Princess Charlotte and her gorgeous big brother, Prince George, has now been released by Kensington Palace.

And suffice to say that we're transfixed by the duo.

The baby girl, who emerged into the world on May 2, can be seen nestled contently in her brother's arms.

Significantly, we can also see her blue eyes for the first time. Her hair is sandy brown.

The shot was taken in mid-May when Charlotte was still just two weeks old by the children's mother, the Duchess Of Cambridge. The family was at home in Anmer Hall at the time.

Both are largely clad in pure white, though George has a smart blue trim on his shirt. He also sports blue shorts and matching blue knee-socks.

The newest little Cambridge is seen in snug knitwear – reflective, no doubt, of the unseasonable chill of last month.

The Duchess is known to be a keen amateur photographer – and her father, Michael, also took the first official shot of George during the summer of 2013 at the Middleton holding in Bucklebury.

It emerged earlier this week that Charlotte will be christened on Sunday, July 5, by the Archbishop of Canterbury.

The event will take place at the small St Mary Magdalene church on her great-grandmother the Queen’s Sandringham estate. The church is also within walking distance of William and Kate’s country abode.

George himself, being directly in-line to the British throne, had a somewhat more elaborate baptism.

Taking place on October 23, 2013 at the Chapel Royal at St James’s Palace in London, the Archbishop Of Canterbury also resided over proceedings.

Just 22 guests were in attendance, made up of four members of the Middleton family, the child’s seven godparents and their spouses, and senior royals.

Princess Charlotte will also wear the same gown that her brother wore before her.

Modelled on a version donned by generations of British royals since the Victoria era, the current robe was actually designed by Angela Kelly in 2004.

The Queen had asked her senior dresser to create it as she deemed the original to be too fragile for further use.

For George’s big day, Kate wore a stunning Alexander McQueen jacket and matching knee-length skirt in a gold-tinged cream hue. 

She completed her look with a co-ordinating pillbox hat by Jane Taylor millinery, and Russell & Bromley nude court shoes in patent leather.

Prince George turns two on July 22 – and it is rumoured that his parents are already planning a garden fete-style bash at Anmer Hall to mark the occasion.
