Kate’s endlessly chic style has inspired plenty of outfits for us over the years, from casual outfits composed of much-loved & Other Stories jeans and Veja trainers, to elegant red carpet gowns. But its the in between of these two extremes of casual and dressed-up that really excites us. Kate’s appearances require the balance of smart and chic, and we’ve noticed that her signature tailored flares are the perfect combination of both. In a couple of styling moves that are now recognisably very HRH, Kate chose to go tonal (a move that makes any outfit simpler), to add in some classic pearl earrings and to ensure that her flared trousers were (probably) tailored just so, in order to sit neatly above her pointed-toe shoes and to only just scrape the ground. Personally, I’m obsessed with flared trousers and would gladly trade my skinny jeans for them because they look so polished without trying hard. Plus, they’re great for elongating your frame when worn with heels.
