I Found 10 Under-$100 Versions of the Trendy Accessory Kate Middleton Just Wore
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.
