The Princess of Wales was dressed for the wintery weather as she walked to church on Christmas morning and a fashion expert has shown how to mimic her style
The Princess of Wales is a fashion inspiration for women around the world. Her public appearances are closely watched by style enthusiasts who draw inspiration from her outfits and accessories.
Now, one expert has shared tips on how to emulate the style that Kate, who turns 43 this Friday, showcased while attending church on Christmas morning. During the Royal Family’s customary Christmas morning walk to St Mary Magdalene Church in Sandringham, the Princess was seen donning a long brown plaid coat, paired with a dark brown fascinator featuring a floral motif, and a light brown and cream silk patterned scarf.
She completed her look with brown boots, a dark tartan skirt, dark brown gloves, gold hoop earrings, and a brown handbag. Now, a fashion expert has revealed how to replicate her style by tying your scarf in the same manner as the Princess of Wales.
Laura-Ann Barr, who boasts more than 81,000 followers on TikTok where she shares lifestyle and fashion advice under the handle allthatspretty, recently uploaded a video demonstrating how to style your scarf just like Kate. In the video, Laura-Ann can be seen wearing a dark green dress, accessorised with a green patterned scarf, which she uses to illustrate the technique, reports the Mirror.
The description stated: “It’s NO LONGER just a ‘Princess Anne scarf ‘ it would seem, and I’m thrilled about it! But have we been making this too complicated all along?! I think this is how the Princess Of Wales is tying hers and it’s ridiculously easy and thankfully impossible to get into a tangle for once.”
During the video, Laura-Ann explained: “It would seem we’ve been making this a little bit more complicated than it needed to be. Let’s try this again because the Princess of Wales seems to do hers in a very simple way.”
The clip, which includes several photographs of Kate in her Christmas morning ensemble, shows Laura-Anne loosening her scarf before commenting: “She is wearing a coat, so I’m going to put a coat on, just to give the similar look.”
She then slips into a light brown-coloured checked jacket, remarking: “It’s more of a blazer but it’s giving the same effect where she wants to clearly fill this whole space,” gesturing to the upper-central area of her chest left exposed by the jacket.
Laura-Ann proceeds to show the technique, explaining: “Put this around your neck, slightly longer on one side. The slightly longer side you’re going to cross under, and she does seem to wear the knot slightly further up on one side.
“You’re just going to slip that through and back down from here,” she demonstrated, pointing to the neck area.
“And then just sort of push that knot slightly further up to one side. And then she’s just tucking this in,” she explains, as she neatly tucks the scarf under the breast sections so it doesn’t drape over the jacket.
Laura-Ann went on to say: “It’s so simple compared to all those other styles we’ve been trying to do but obviously I think she just wants to fill this nice gap in here,” pointing to her upper chest. But there we go, Princess of Wales approved. It’s no longer just a Princess Anne scarf.
Presenting another photo of Kate donning a similar scarf over an open blazer and white blouse, Laura-Ann added: “What does it look like when you take the coat off, that’s the other question,” before removing her own jacket. “I think it’s still really nice. It gives like a longer look rather than having too much going on at the top so there you have it.”
The Princess of Wales’ birthday plans have not been revealed, but it’s likely she’ll celebrate with her family. Kensington Palace often releases new portraits of Royal Family members on their birthdays.
