Sophie Wessex' leather skirt and cream blouse, which she styled with muted jewelry, is the perfect look for the stylish royal as she receives huge accolade during a surprise US visit.
- Sophie Wessex' surprise US visit was to attend a special award ceremony, in which she was being recognized for her work.
- The hardworking royal looked glamorous as ever in what seems to be her new favorite material, leather, during the poignant event.
- In other royal news, Prince Harry's comments on the Royal Family came at 'insensitive' time for the Queen who 'was on borrowed time.'
Sophie Wessex leather skirt and cream blouse combination, which she wore at an important awards ceremony in the US, is another example of the stylish royal's love of all things leather! Royal rebel Sophie Wessex' nail polish broke royal protocol and although previously Sophie Wessex' leather dress broke royal protocol too - it's not for the reason you might expect.
Whether the skirt was a break of royal rules or not, the smartly dressed Countess certainly shone in it. Her midi-length leather skirt is a prime example of how the material can be smart as well as vampish.
