How to Steal Kate Middleton’s Style Secrets This Summer

Kate Middleton


As Duchess of Cambridge, looking picture perfect is all part of Kate Middleton's daily life. While for most of us that seems like an intense amount of style pressure, the Duchess somehow makes it look super easy. How? She sticks to a tried and true formula that works for her. Here, we break down Middleton's style secrets you can hack this summer.
The Tailored Blazer: A classic fitted jacket always elevates a look. Middleton looks comfortable and chic in simple, crisp white and black.
The mom to Princess Charlotte and Prince George balanced out a fun print by topping the look off with a navy blazer. The result: a mix that hits just the right notes.
Campbell Blazer in Linen

Grab your own tailored topper for summer with this Campbell Blazer in Linen ($168). Wear it to the office then for cocktails after hours!

The Classic White Sneaker: The Duchess is known to regularly rock her white Supergas. That includes this perfect-for-weekend nautical look.
Even in an anorak and kicks, she looks casual chic. #Rainydaygoals
Superga 2750 Cotu Classic Sneaker

Want to snag your own pair? Right this way for the Superga 2750 Cotu Classic Sneaker ($65), complete with the Duchess's seal of approval.

The Long Sleeve A-Line Dress: Middleton regularly dons this modest dress silhouette, while still looking fresh. She keeps the bodice fitted (but not tight) and goes for a skirt with some movement for a look that’s pretty and polished.
A floral print goes from girly to ladylike when you add a tie-neck detail and sleeves. Exhibit A: this rose print Kate Spade New York frock.
Topshop Floral Ruffle Midi Dress

In this Topshop Floral Ruffle Midi Dress ($95), you'll be pretty as a princess and ready for high tea. Bonus: You'll hit the pink trend in a royal-worthy way.

The Skinny Jean: Cropped flares and mom jeans may be the denim silhouettes du jour, but Middleton sticks to her time-tested skinnies when it comes to denim. She’ll regularly mix it up with subtle moto details for a little edge.
She's a fervent fan of tucking her skinnies into a pair of high boots. So British countryside chic.
Mango Olivia Jeans

Long live the skinny! Cropped and ready to pair with everything, these Mango Olivia Jeans ($70) will be your default denim for summer.
