Princess Kate Just Wore a '90s Chanel Blazer With Trendy Puddle Pants
Kate Middleton, the newly appointed Princess of Wales, rarely wears vintage pieces, but today, she threw us for a loop with her stunning Chanel blazer from the '90s. The color, however, is a Middleton signature, as cobalt blue matches the sapphire engagement ring that previously belonged to Princess Diana.
While her blazer is a true classic, her pants are thoroughly modern because they touch on the ever-so-popular puddle-pant trend that's taking over the fashion industry right now. Her extra-long trousers pool on the floor, creating a laid-back vibe that we're obsessed with. Scroll down to see Princess Kate's newest puddle-pant outfit.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 14 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Kate and Meghan stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible.
