Kate Middleton Wore the Spring Color That's Majorly Trending at H&M
Kate Middleton has been busy lately—checking off all of spring's top trends, that is. Just a few weeks after kicking off Mango's and Zara's polka-dot trend, the Duchess of Cambridge debuted another up-and-coming fad for the season: baby blue.
For this Sunday's royal Easter service at Windsor Castle, Middleton wore a baby-blue Emilia Wickstead dress coat (previously worn by the duchess in 2017) with a matching clutch and suede pumps. And just like her polka-dot look from last month, styles similar to her Easter ensemble are already popping up at our favorite retailers. Specifically, they're at H&M. From anti-trend button-downs and blazers to pro-trend varsity jackets and minidresses, Middleton's new favorite spring shade is currently available in all sartorial forms at our go-to destination for shopping on a non-royal budget.
Keep scrolling to shop the color to watch out for this spring.
