Princess Kate is known to be a style maven, and now that the weather is starting to cool we are looking to her as inspiration for some truly royal winter wardrobe inspiration.
Her recent look during an outing with Prince William as they visited the headquarters of the Wales Air Ambulance charity, turned heads thanks to her bold (and budget) skirt choice!

Kate stepped out wearing a maxi length tweed skirt to protect her from the England chill, in a timeless black and white houndstooth pattern.
The skirt is actually a high street find by Kate that is from Zara for only £19.99 (approx $36 AUD).
The Princess seemed to take inspiration from her late mother-in-law Diana who once made headlines for her iconic Moschino houndstooth midi skirt she wore in 1990.
The fashion-forward royal paired the skirt with some suede knee high boots, a white turtleneck and a long white coat from Alexander McQueen for a put together, yet effortlessly chic outfit.
As autumn has officially arrived, you can consider us influenced as we will be emulating Princess Kate with our very own interpretation of this look that’s just perfect for the office.
