Kate Middleton nails summer-to-autumn styling with forest green blazer, striped vest and pleated skirt - it's chic and simple

Catherine, Princess of Wales watches the track cycling during the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games at the Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome on August 1, 2026.

The Princess of Wales doesn't overcomplicate her outfits and she wore a simple but stunning trio of pieces to the Commonwealth Games on 1st August. The last time we saw her publicly she wore a summer dress at Wimbledon but in Glasgow where things have been slightly cooler, Kate styled a knitted top, pleated skirt and blazer.

This is a tried-and-tested formula for her and it's an easy one to adjust to wear in the heat or in colder weather. The Princess's ivory top was actually sleeveless and had deep navy stripes and a high crew neckline. These kinds of designs can be worn as they are, or layered over blouses and skirts for a preppy, polished look.
