Kate Middleton, Princess of Wales, has had a busy schedule following the historic coronation of King Charles III, taking part in several special events to mark the occasion.

On Sunday, the 41-year old royal traded in her heels and tiaras for a more low-key look, stepping out in a casual blazer and trousers combo to greet the public alongside Prince William.

She was spotted in Windsor wearing a $565 Reiss Hollie Double-Breasted Linen-Blend Blazer, a pair of sold-out L.K. Bennett trousers, and her favourite $201 Veja Esplar sneakers.

This pair in particular is also embellished with metallic gold detailing for a bit of added shine.

The Princess of Wales isn't the only royal who's a fan of the brand's sustainable sneakers — Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex has also worn the sneakers, including on a royal tour of Australia in 2018.

Instead of the sleek Esplar sneakers, Meghan opted for the more sporty look of the Veja V-10 Sneakers at the time.
