In keeping with the unofficial royal family dress code, Kate Middleton typically keeps her accessories pretty classic, like the rest of her wardrobe. But once in a while, she'll surprise us and step out for an appearance wearing something trendy and fun (relatively speaking). That was the case yesterday when she attended an engagement at a museum in London.
Middleton wore a spring-appropriate pink Alexander McQueen suit for the occasion with white pumps. But it was her belt that made the outfit memorable. Trendy belts are having a moment this season, and Middleton embraced the buzzy accessory trend. She opted for a white pearl-embellished one by sustainable British designer Camilla Elphick. It's sold out now (but available for pre-order), so I found a handful of other trendy belts that will be perfect for summer. The best part is that they're all under $100. Scroll to shop my picks.
