Effortless Ways To Look And Dress Like A Royal
There’s something very enchanting about the royal family. Maybe it’s their grace, poise or exquisite fashion sense, but every onlooker wants to know their secret. If Kate, Meghan and the late Queen are your main fashion inspiration, there are plenty of ways to emulate their style without breaking the royal bank.
Accessorise
Yes, the members of the royal family do have access to a vault of priceless jewellery, but that shouldn’t stop you looking the part. Kate Middleton is known for wearing beautiful accessories, so copy her style with some statement second-hand jewellery that will attract more than one double take.
Then, turn your attention to handbags. Known for understated, classic designs, Kate knows how to elevate a look without letting the bag steal all the attention.
Colour blocking
Colour blocking is a popular trick deployed by members of the royal family. A favourite with the late Queen Elizabeth II throughout her reign, the younger royals have adopted this particular style in solidarity with Her Royal Highness.
For those who want to be noticed, colour block with enthusiasm. The royals use this tactic to stand out from the crowd!
Invest in a beautiful coatdress
Nothing says sophistication and elegance than a coat dress in the Autumn and Winter months. It’s become a staple in Kate Middleton’s wardrobe, and we’ve seen the princess step out in everything from bright reds and cheery yellows to subdued browns and leafy greens.
If you’re tired of hiding your elegant outfits with a big coat, buy a coat dress that makes a statement even when it’s chilly outside.
Re-wear treasured garments again and again
Even though they have a generous budget for all things fashion, that doesn’t stop Kate and Meghan turning back to old favourites on multiple public occasions. They often reuse dresses and coats, styling them in different ways to keep the outfit fresh.
Go twee with tweed
An absolute favourite with the Queen, tweet often formed her outdoor outfits, be it a perfectly tailored tweed skirt or culottes that are perfect for a brisk country walk. Also, a keen horsewoman, the Queen was often pictured in equestrian tweed jackets that were both flattering and practical. Not only does tweed look sophisticated and fitting for the countryside, it also represented the Queen’s deep love and affection for Scotland.
Even Kate has taken up the trend, attending public events in green tweed blazers that work wonders for smart/casual outfits. They’ve become her staple for country fairs and sports matches.
Wrap it up with a silk scarf
Another staple from the Queen’s wardrobe, she used pretty silk scarves to protect her perfectly coiffed hair whilst also using them to brighten up duller outfits. They also have this way of making one look effortlessly put-together.
