Have you noticed a change in the Princess of Wales’s outfits lately? She’s been ditching her bright colors for something a bit more subdued. Just like Kate, who’s gone from dresses to tailoring, this shift has been gradual and depends on the occasion.

But this season, the future Queen has mostly worn all-neutral outfits, including her latest look. On November 18th, she stepped out in London for a business summit and wore a gorgeous grey suit with a crisp blouse and classic heels.

Though she usually pairs her grey with black court shoes and a trusty Smythson East West Tote, she also wore grey trousers with a chunky jumper or cardigan on a colder day.

To make an outfit like hers more casual for everyday wear, I suggest jeans and a blazer instead of a matching two-piece set. That way, a grey blazer can be balanced out by the denim and doesn’t feel too formal. You could also take the opposite approach and wear grey trousers with a chunky jumper or cardigan.

Accessorizing with a slouchier bag can also make tailoring more casual. The Smythson tote has been one of Kate’s best handbags for years now, and although she’ll never be seen carrying it to a royal event, it’s a great size to take with her to engagements because it can fit a lot.

The Princess of Wales visited London to attend the Future Workforce Summit hosted by The Centre for Early Childhood, an organization she established in 2021. During the summit, she and the delegates were scheduled to receive insights from business leaders regarding the impact of their early childhood initiatives.

Through The Royal Foundation Business Taskforce, numerous organizations have successfully reached over half a million babies and young children through impactful projects.
