• Kate Middleton has impressed royal fans after wearing a casual outfit for her annual Christmas card photo with Prince William and their three children. 
• The Princess of Wales looked effortlessly chic in a white shirt, skinny jeans, and her trusty Superga trainers.

Whether she's attending a glitzy movie premiere or a charity event, it's no secret that Kate Middleton dresses flawlessly for every occasion. 

The Princess of Wales has built a reputation for being one of the world's biggest style icons, having now had over ten years to curate a wardrobe fit for a future Queen. 

The 41-year-old is known to dial up the glamor on her overseas engagements, as demonstrated on her most trip to the US for Prince William's Earthshot Prize ceremony in Boston. Kate stunned in a rented green dress at the event, proving you don't have to break the bank (or the environment!) to look red-carpet ready. 

Royal fans will also know that the Princess of Wales is no stranger to more casual attire, especially when she's working from home or spending quality time at Adelaide Cottage with her family. 

In Prince William and Kate Middleton's adorable Christmas card for 2022, the Reading native has gone for a comfortable yet stylish outfit to pose with her husband and their three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. The wholesome snap shows the smiling princess wearing a white blouse with a pair of skinny jeans as she holds hands with her youngest son. 

The simple look is completed by Kate's Superga sneakers, which have long been a staple in her enviable closet. The chic ensemble has been well-received by royal fans, many of whom have rejoiced in the mother-of-three's choice of high-waisted, skinny jeans. 

"If Kate says skinny jeans are still in style then I’m in," one person wrote on Instagram, prompting another to reply, "I came back to make a double take! I love my skinny jeans." 

It looks like the princess's white blouse has also caused quite a stir amongst her devout fanbase. The shirt, called the 'Mabel' and retailing for £255 at M.I.H Jeans, is unfortunately already sold-out, having clearly been swooped up by Kate's fashion-forward followers. Luckily, there are plenty of alternatives on the high street that'll give you that same chic finish without the hefty price tag.
