From statement Alexander McQueen coats to custom-made Emilia Wickstead dresses, Kate Middleton has long been an advocate for timeless (and re-wearable) style.
The Duchess of Cambridge, this week, has once again proved that her penchant for classic styles is unmatched, logging on to Zoom to speak with teachers from the Ribbon Academy in County Durham in honour of Children’s Mental Health Week in the U.K., recycling a blue tweed jacket from New Zealand-based brand Rebecca Taylor.
The classic style—made famous by Coco Chanel in the 1920s—will forever be a chic wardrobe staple, if Kate’s latest look is anything to go by.
First worn to the opening of Ronald McDonald House Evelina London in 2017, Kate originally wore the set with a deep navy suede clutch and sapphire earrings that perfectly matched her famous sapphire engagement ring.
For this week’s event, Kate switched out the sapphires in favour of a pair of rose-gold drop earrings from Missoma—which are still in stock.

Kate has been completing most of her royal engagements via Zoom the past several weeks amid London’s COVID-19 lockdowns, and recently shared new insights into her relationship with Prince William.
During a recent video call with fellow parents, the royal mum-of-three was asked to share who her “greatest support” has been throughout the pandemic.
Revealing her answer, Kate held up a piece of paper that read: “William.”
“That’s lovely, lovely to hear. We don’t want it to be Bridgerton or something like that, do we?” said moderator Melissa Loosemore.
“This has been really difficult for lots of families, not being able to rely on their usual support systems,” Kate added.
