Princess Charlotte's Red Coat for Starting Nursery

last updated 10 January 2018

It's January, and we need reasons to be cheerful. The biggest one so far is the utterly adorable face of Princess Charlotte on her first day of nursery. We understand that you don't usually come to Who What Wear UK for clothing credits of toddlers (this is the first time I think I've ever written about such a thing), but today I couldn't help sharing just how very S/S 18 this young royal's high-profile outfit was. Okay, okay, that's just one big ridiculous fashion excuse to justify my actions.

Funnily enough though, there is parallel content running today on the site where we've evaluated the best new colour combinations to get you out of that wintry slump and feel cheered by happy hues. One of the best, and most popular formulas according to the runways and the street style set is that of pink and red. Not new, but definitely trending. Let us not forget that the season is very much about wearing colours head-to-toe, which Charlotte has already inspired us to do with her cute Mary Jane pumps in red to match her sweet coat. The grey tights are rather Prada, and even the whole ribbon-in-hair thing is what you'll find all over Instagram these days. It's all too much; I can't keep typing. Just scroll down to see her outfit, and for any interested mums out there, see where Kate Middleton purchased these pieces from.
