Lady Louise Windsor looked effortlessly elegant as she joined her family for the Christmas Day church service in Sandringham on Monday.

The 20-year-old daughter of Prince Edward and the Duchess of Edinburgh stepped out wearing a navy wool coat by London-based brand The Fold, paired with nude suede heels by royal-favourite LK Bennett and a Jane Taylor Millinery trilby hat. 

Eagle-eyed fashion fans noticed her divisive shoes were the same pair she wore to the Coronation of King Charles III in May. Lady Louise stole the show earlier this year, looking stunning styling them with a white and blue floral gown by Suzannah London, while this Christmas fans were divided on the fashion choice, with many commenting they were more suited to summer ensembles.

The St Andrews student wore her hair in its natural waves, pared-back makeup and a scarf which is believed to have been gifted to her by King Charles. She added a modern touch with the addition of celestial pearl stud earrings from Missoma’s Harris Reed collaboration. The collection has also been seen on the likes of Hailey Bieber and Kendall Jenner. 

Lady Louise wasn’t the only royal to choose blue. Her cousin-in-law, the Princess of Wales was styled in a head-to-toe tonal outfit, wearing an Alexander McQueen azure coat with a structured silhouette, knee-high navy boots and a bespoke blue fascinator with a delicate plume detail.
