But did you spot her hair? The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s daughter wore her hair in a lovely sleek and straight style and we loved the variety of plaited styles she sported too, they were immaculately done.

The young royal clearly favours the plaited half-up, half down style, which is very easy to do. You simply take a section of hair from the crown and gently braid the hair from each side, and secure it with a band before adding a ribbon to finish. It’s a great way to keep the hair away from the face but it still looks super cute, yet tidy.

Kate’s favourite hairstyle on Charlotte is plaits, and she actually confirmed it in 2019. During a royal appearance, Prince William’s wife revealed that her daughter loves having her hair put into braids.

Kate made the sweet revelation three years ago, and at the time she explained she had to come up with a solution to help her little girl wear her way the way she likes because it's a bit short for her favourite style.
