Duchess Sophie's flowy cream skirt was the perfect winter look as the Duchess of Edinburgh stepped out in Switzerland in a stunning combination.
When it comes to building a perfect winter capsule wardrobe, the Duchess of Edinburgh showed that she knows exactly which items are the perfect staples. The Duchess stepped out in a skirt and jumper combination that was wonderfully versatile and can be paired with several other items to create many different looks - which is just perfect if you're travelling and need looks that can be mixed and matched.
The Duchess of Edinburgh wore a wonderfully luxe cream skirt with Kate Middleton's favourite winter wardrobe staple, a classic rollneck jumper - which the Princess of Wales has been seen in numerous times in the autumn and winter months. The combination was classic and unpretentious and super easy to emulate.
RRP: £35.00 | Marks & Spencer. A timeless design and quality pure merino wool make this jumper a love-forever piece. The long-sleeved style is made in a comfortable regular fit, with a cosy roll neckline.
RRP: Was £109.00 Now £97.20 | Karen Millen. This midi skirt is crafted from a lightweight Milano knit viscose blend and is a staple in any wardrobe. Style this piece with the co-ordinating long sleeved top to complete the look.
RRP: Was £219.00 Now £153.00 | Ralph Lauren. A must-have bootie for the cold weather season, the Willa is characterised by a square toe and a velvety-soft suede construction. A polished "LRL" metal logo adds a signature Lauren Ralph Lauren finish.
The Duchess's roll neck was a clear style tip from the Princess of Wales who frequently wears this style of knitwear. Royal fashion expert and celebrity stylist, Miranda Holder, told woman&home that Kate Middleton's winter wardrobe essential that's the 'perfect layering piece.'
"Roll necks are the perfect layering piece for Kate. They are classic, which fits in with her more conservative style, she wears them in a slim fit, which flatters her frame and they sit perfectly under her coats and jackets without adding any extra bulk," she said."I think it's highly likely that Kate will plump for roll necks as a mainstay of her winter wardrobe."
