Utilising a failsafe styling trick that fashion-conscious women have been playing for years, Catherine, Princess of Wales reached into her wardrobe and picked out her favourite bouclé blazer to complete her outfit for the England vs. Fiji World Cup game in France yesterday. The longline tweed blazer in question hails from high-street hero Zara, falls to hip length and is available in ecru and black. Adorned with gold button details and a timeless textured finish, Kate Middleton styled hers with floor-length flared trousers and a classic Chanel handbag.
A long-time favourite of Zara’s bouclé blazer selection, Middleton previously wore the blazer in bright red—a trending shade this autumn/winter—to an engagement in Kent in September. And proving just how much of a fan she is of the international high street, just last week the Princess was spotted wearing a knitted co-ord skirt set from French affordable-luxe label Sézane.
