In terms of makeup, the royal opted for something natural. An even skin tone, a gentle touch of blush and a nude lip made for a low-key beauty blend.
Sophie recently reunited with her family as they stopped to view tributes to the Queen outside Balmoral. The royal looked emotional as she spoke to members of the public and viewed the many bouquets of flowers left in honour of the monarch.

They were joined for the walkabout by the daughter, Lady Louise Windsor, who touchingly held on to her mother's hand as they walked towards the crowd.
For the occasion, Countess Sophie donned a black Prada dress featuring mid-length sleeves, a round neck, a belted silhouette and a knee-length fit. She wore her blonde hair down loose and completed her apt attire with a pair of black tights and black low heels.
