In a festive display of royal charm, Catherine, the Princess of Wales, was joined by her family for the annual Christmas walk to St. Mary Magdalene Church.
Accompanied by Prince William and their three children—Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis—Catherine turned heads with her impeccable fashion sense.
However, it was her candid admission about the weather that caught many off guard.
Catherine showcased her flair for fashion in a custom design by Catherine Walker, which was inspired by the brand’s Larissa style.
The coat, crafted from luxurious mocha mohair, was a standout piece.
Departing from the original design, she opted for a sleek finish without the faux fur skirt, allowing the elegant fabric to shine.
Underneath, she wore a beloved Michael Kors peacock dress that beautifully complemented her outerwear.
Accessorizing with finesse, Catherine chose a Sylvia Fletcher For Luck & Co. hat that matched her coat perfectly.
This hat wasn’t just any accessory; it had made previous appearances on Christmas Day in 2015 and St. Patrick’s Day in 2017, adding a nostalgic touch to her ensemble.
Completing her look were suede Josie heels and a vibrant Natasha clutch, both in a refreshing greenery hue, while Kiki Magdana green amethyst and diamond earrings added a hint of sparkle.
Despite the flawless appearance, Catherine revealed a little secret to royal fans.
She confessed that her outfit may not have been the best choice for the unseasonably warm weather, saying, “I really wouldn’t have worn this,” as she felt a bit too warm during the outing.
It was a relatable moment that many could appreciate, reminding everyone that even royals can face wardrobe dilemmas.
Little Princess Charlotte was a picture of delight, mirroring her mother’s stylishness in a charming green double-breasted coat.
The matching outfits created a heartwarming mother-daughter moment that added to the festive atmosphere of the day.
Their coordinated looks highlighted the family’s close-knit bond and sense of style.
Meanwhile, King Charles is gearing up to host one of the largest Christmas celebrations in recent memory, with an impressive 45 royals expected at Sandringham.
The festivities promise a blend of formality and fun, featuring a black-tie dinner on Christmas Eve followed by lively games after the traditional turkey feast on Christmas Day.
In a recent interview, Camilla’s son, Tom Parker Bowles, disclosed that his mother had extended an invitation to him and his family for the royal gathering.
This means that not only will Tom and his children, Lola and Freddie, be attending, but also Camilla’s daughter Laura, her husband Harry, and their three kids, Eliza, Gus, and Louis.
However, not all royal family members will be present.
Prince Harry, his wife Meghan Markle, and their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, are notably absent from the guest list this year.
Sources close to the couple revealed that they have not received an invitation to join the festivities at Sandringham, leading them to skip the trip back to the UK for Christmas.
Each year, Catherine captures the public’s attention with her Christmas Day outfits, which have become a topic of much anticipation.
Dana Borrowman, the marketing manager at Jewelrybox, shared insights into the evolution of the Princess’s style over the past decade.
From her first Christmas as a royal in 2011 to the last gathering in 2019, Catherine’s outfits have consistently impressed fashion editors and royal enthusiasts alike.
Reflecting on her fashion journey, Catherine’s very first appearance at Sandringham showcased a stunning dark berry frock coat paired with a striking velvet hat.
Even in her second Christmas in 2012, while pregnant with Prince George, she demonstrated her fashion sensibility by repeating a chestnut brown coat and accessorizing with bold colors.
