In recent times, royal followers have become accustomed to seeing Charlene with uber-cropped hair with her shortest style in 2020 making quite the statement with a buzz cut on one side of her head.

It is not the first time Charlene has worn a Barbie pink look recently. Just last week the royal stepped out in her role as Honorary President of Pink Ribbon Monaco - a charity which raises awareness of breast cancer.

The former Olympic swimmer wore an apt pink look in the form of a houndstooth cropped blazer and floaty skirt from Emilia Wickstead which was teamed with black patent heels.

Prince Albert's wife also looked like a real-life officewear Barbie when she was spotted on the steps of the Élysée Palace in May as her husband was presented with the badge of Commander of Agricultural Merit by French President Emmanuel Macron.

Charlene wore a pale pink and grey gingham suit which was worn done up to make the most of the structured silhouette created by the double-breasted buttons.
