Kate Middleton takes style tips from Meghan Markle in immaculate color block outfit with retro roll-neck and DeMellier handbag
Kate Middleton just stepped out in a seriously Meghan Markle-esque outfit


Kate Middleton seemingly took style tips from her super stylish sister-in-law, Meghan Markle, as she stepped out for a royal engagement in Scarborough.
- Kate Middleton and Prince William stepped out in Scarborough for an important charitable visit on Thursday.
- The Princess of Wales stunned in head-to-toe camel, seemingly inspired by Meghan Markle's penchant for color block outfits.
- In other royal news, Kate Middleton’s fall home makeover proved terracotta tones and family photos are the way to go.
As the Prince and Princess of Wales arrived in the UK seaside town of Scarborough, they were greeted by royal fans as well as members of staff from the charities they were there to pay visits to.
The pair were there to show their support to The Street, an organization that helps support young people with mental health struggles, and The Rainbow Centre, which is helping families facing difficulties amid the cost of living crisis.
Looking as chic as always, Kate looked effortlessly classic in an all-neutral outfit, pairing a longline beige coat with a knitted, roll-neck dress in the same shade. Kate's dresses are the envy of so many fashion fans, and figure-hugging jumper dresses are perfect for chillier weather.
She teamed the pieces with a brown belt and coordinating court heels for the ultimate one-color look.
On the handbag front, the future Queen Consort opted for the Nano Montreal by DeMellier in the colour Deep Toffee Smooth. Swoon.

The Nano Montreal by DeMellier comes in nine colors, providing a seriously classic take on tiny bags. Made from smooth cowhide leather with subtle shine with adjustable straps and timeless gold hardware, it's no wonder it's in Kate Middleton's collection.
It also appears that Kate has been taking notes from Meghan Markle when it comes to fall and winter fashion, with the Duchess of Sussex often nailing color blocking in her outfits as well as having a stash of stylish overcoats in her closet.

Meghan dazzled in a head-to-toe red look when she and Prince Harry attended the One Young World Summit in Manchester back in September, proving that her one-color looks are some of her best.
Meghan has long been one for all over neutral looks too, having completed plenty of outfits with a long camel coat over the years.
The mom-of-two famously paired a beige, tie-waist coat with chestnut toned accessories for her first Christmas with the royal family back in 2017.
Meghan also wore a gorgeous brown roll-neck, brown satin midi skirt and brown heel combo with a camel coat for one of her and Prince Harry's last royal appearances before leaving the royal family in 2020, stepping out at Canada House in London in January of that year.
