While we've been reveling in all of Meghan Markle's recent looks, there's still plenty of room in our royal-loving hearts for Kate Middleton's classic style. She just stepped out for her second appearance after taking a maternity leave, and in signature duchess style, she re-wore an old favorite look: an Emilia Wickstead dress you may recognize from her tour of Poland and Germany.
Aside from her pretty dress, we immediately zeroed in on her beautiful, show-stealing bag. Her Aspinal of London Mini Mayfair ($725) has the makings of being a new It bag thanks to its on-trend pastel color, mini size, and posh top-handle shape. As it happens, Pippa Middleton wore the same bag brand yesterday, so it officially has both sisters' stamp of approval. Scroll down to see how they styled the same brand differently this week and to shop the bags for yourself.
On Kate Middleton: Emilia Wickstead dress; Aspinal of London Mini Mayfair Bag ($725)
On Pippa Middleton: Claudie Pierlot Paisley Print Chiffon Dress ($285); Jimmy Choo Miami Sneakers ($495); Aspinal of London Oversize London Tote ($795)
