How Kate Middleton Styles $60 Pants

Though she’s a duchess, Kate Middleton is known for her affinity for affordable shopping. She’s a major fan of fast-fashion retailer Zara (just like the rest of us are), and her latest budget buy comes courtesy of American retailer Gap. Middleton made an appearance in a printed pair of skinny trousers by the brand. Sadly, the $60 pants are now sold out, but the site has similar styles available, so you can still try out the royal look.
To replicate Kate Middleton’s simply sophisticated style, pair the statement pants with a sleek white top and coordinated blazer. Then opt for polished accessories like the duchess’s wedges and drop earrings. Her styling had a punch of personality thanks to the trousers but still featured the elevated touch we’ve come to expect from the royal.
