Our favourite royals have been keeping cool this week, and they've unpacked their stylish summer wardrobes to take on the heatwave. The Countess of Wessex proved that when in doubt, you can never go wrong with a white sundress, meanwhile Queen Letizia has been out and about in her go-to espadrille wedges. 

Marking Prince George's birthday, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have released a new portrait of the future king and his John Lewis polo shirt has caused an instant sellout. Celebrating another major milestone, congratulations are also in order for Lady Kitty Spencer, who is marrying Michael Lewis in Rome this weekend – and her hen party dress is a thing of dreams. 

We've rounded up our favourite outfits of the week, so you can get the royal look for less – happy shopping!

Prince George

The Duchess of Cambridge has shared a new photo of Prince George to celebrate his birthday

In honour of Prince George's eighth birthday, a new portrait has been released – and it's the most adorable picture ever! Like most of George's photos, it was taken by his mother Kate Middleton who is a keen photographer, at their country home in Norfolk. 

Dressed in a £10 blue and orange striped polo shirt from John Lewis and a pair of navy shorts from Boden, the future King can be seen grinning at the camera. And in a sweet nod to the late Duke of Edinburgh, George is sitting on the hood of a Land Rover Defender, which was Prince Philip's go-to choice of car. 

GET THE LOOK:

Sadly George's top has already sold out but a similar style in blue and lemon is still available to buy in ages two to 11, and is priced between £8 to £12.
