The Princess of Wales stepped out in Scotland on the Isle of Mull for a two-day visit alongside Prince William wearing her favorite skinny cargos. Looking preppy with a hint of utilitarian chic and a dash of military inspired energy (hello combat boots!), the mom of three showed off her impeccable casual style.

Kate’s Scottish lookbook included not one but two herringbone blazer jackets — thanks to Holland Cooper and Ralph Lauren plus dark brown cargos with a touch of feminine flair courtesy of a new crisp white Boden Broderie cotton shirt (past season). The frill neck top elevated Kate’s outdoorsy ensemble and made the princess’ outfit feel more nostalgic. 

The revival of Kate’s beloved cargo skinnies (Massimo Dutti chocolate brown trousers and G-star cargo skinny pants in raven) represents a pivot from her recent love affair with wide leg denim designs and cropped flare jeans.

Kate’s Scottish style remains true to her ‘relatable royal’ aesthetic while leaning into an English countryside attitude with tweed and herringbone serving as outfit ‘anchors’ — this allows the princess to create ensembles which are both practical for royal walkabouts and elegant enough to ensure her prestigious princess status is not ignored but fully embodied and embraced. 

Kate’s casual style is polished but not pretentious with a focus on approachable and sustainable clothing.
