Kate Middleton's dresses may sell out time and time again, but Sophie is proving to be a strong contender for most fashionable royal.
For the second day of Royal Ascot 2022, Sophie opted for a cornflower blue dress with delicate lace detailing and matching accessories.
Perhaps the most eye-catching of Sophie's accessories was her stunning jewelry from some of the best jewelry brands. Sophie continued the blue theme with floral earrings set with blue and yellow gems, and the pièce de résistance - a brilliant aquamarine, diamond and enamel brooch.
