Kate Middleton Just Wore the Elevated Coat Style Brit and French Girls Love
There's a phenomenon that happens each time we get a sighting of Catherine, Princess of Wales: Whatever she wears is pretty much destined to sell out. There's good reason for it, as Kate's style is easily covetable. Her tendency to marry high-street and high-end in perfect harmony allows for almost anyone to emulate her shopping habits. Kate always looks put-together, with uncomplicated looks that are timeless in nature yet, more often than not, seriously on-trend. In a recent visit to the Reading Ukrainian Community Centre, Kate once again proved she has her finger on the fashion pulse as she arrived in a classic and chic camel coat.
There's no denying that the camel coat has become a staple piece in the minimalist's wardrobe. The neutral hue always looks elevated and mixes seamlessly with other classic tones as well as brighter colours, too. With frosted windows and foggy mornings proving winter has officially arrived, we're sure that Kate's coat style of choice will continue to pop up on some of our favourite influencers, editors and celebs alike.
This isn't the first time that Kate has showcased this camel coat, as she recently created a full tonal look recently whilst visiting Scarborough with Prince William. Even style icon Hailey Bieber has been spotted in a camel coat, so you know it's worth your while.
