Kate Middleton's navy and gold outfit with a classic camel coat is giving us total Princess Diana vibes. The get-up, which goes perfectly with her engagement ring, was outshone only by her latest show of skills - as a pancake pro!
- Kate Middleton's navy and gold outfit featured perfectly matched accessories and a chic camel overcoat.
- The coat was OFF when it came to getting her pancake on - which actually breaks royal protocol.
- In other royal news, Prince William's cousin is the spitting image of Prince George and he's taken a rather surprising career path.
If Kate Middleton's navy and gold outfit doesn't serve Princess Diana, we don't know what does. From the chic turtle neck with smart trousers, to the perfectly matched accessories - the new Princess of Wales is certainly reminding us of the last.
Only days after Kate Middleton signaled a shift in her style as Princess of Wales, by borrowing a fashion tip from the Queen and Princess Anne, she's at it again. Looking stunning in her camel coat by Max&Co, Kate's outfit screams, "if it ain't broke don't fix it," and you bet we've seen this coat before.
Per the Daily Mail (opens in new tab), the Princess has sported the coat on a number of occasions in the past, "including for a visit to Scarborough and an appearance at a Cultural Centre in Reading in November."
RRP: $390 / £470 | With a handy belt to cinch you in at the waist, this midi coat adds instant polish to your look. It's made from pure wool, it has a smart lapel collar, and ladies - it has pockets.
Previously, Prince William revealed the better cook between him and Kate Middleton but it seems like he may be able to claw back clout via the medium of pancakes.
Although we can't possibly comment on Her Royal Highness' culinary skills - it does seem that there's one thing she might not be that highly skilled at. Spoiler alert - maybe don't ask for pancakes if you ever pop to breakfast at Adelaide Cottage, Windsor.

The Princess, who's never afraid to get her hands dirty, was eager to get involved with the challenge at hand, while on an official visit to Oxford House Nursing Home in Berkshire.
Today's challenge, unlike regular displays of Kate Middleton's athletic prowess, was less than triumphant, as she managed to sort of scramble the pancake. In her defence, one royal fan tweeted, "The first pancake always difficult for me."
Other royal fans pointed out that although she may appear to be a pancake novice - this isn't the first time we've seen the Princess flip (pancakes) in public.
Back before the Wales were even wed, 12 years ago to be precise, Kate gave pancake flipping a go during an official engagement in Belfast and she actually did quite well that time.
Unfortunately, her skills with the frying pan don't appear to have stood the test of time but her culinary skills remain of great renown. Cakes on a pan may not be her thing, but she spilled her love of baking to TV chef legend Mary Berry in 2019.
During a TV special, the Princess told Mary, "I love making the cake. It's become a bit of a tradition that I stay up 'til midnight with ridiculous amounts of cake mix and icing and I make far too much. But I love it."
