Today on a visit to the Vsi Razom Community Hub in Bracknell, Kate Middleton styled an outfit that was a noticeable departure from the suit sets that she has been gravitating towards more recently. For a fresh take on autumn layering, the Princess of Wales utilised one of our favourite styling hacks for a crisp October day, creating a casual yet aptly put-together look in the process.
Catering to the early-autumn air, Middleton opted for a lighter take on autumn layering by styling a white button-down shirt worn underneath a grey roll- neck sweater vest. Spotted all across London this season. the layered knit vest has been our go-to whilst the weather remains balmy.
Whilst picking up on a London-girl trend, Middleton also tuned into a growing trend spotted on the streets of Milan, Paris and New York this Fashion Month. Grey layers have solidified themselves as the neutral of choice, as the fashion set swapped their beige and camel favourites for cool-toned grey this season.
Wearing her grey sweater vest with complimentary grey wool trousers, she styled her tonal look with small block heels and pearl-embossed gold hoop earrings. The poster-girl for smart casual style, the Princess naturally ensured that her outfit was perfectly tailored, creating a neater feel to her outfit. Styling her hair in her signature loose waves, Middleton added a softer element to her day-time look.
