When winter settles in, we tend to reach for neutral colours when picking out outfits.

Dressing head to toe in blacks and greys is a classic win, but in our eyes a pop of colour is a game-changer – and it’s something Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge knows all too well.

If you’re not convinced a burst of brightness with your black jeans is worth the investment, just see how Kate rocked the red puffer, as pictured below while visiting a tennis court in Birmingham in 2017 which she wore again whilst Christmas tree shopping in 2019.

The royal style icon also wore a similar statement piece but with white panelling during a trip to Sweden and Norway with Prince William in 2018.

When it comes to the cut of her jackets, Kate likes a structured and straight-lined fit that looks sleek with her favourite pairs of skinny jeans.

However, if you’re looking for a 2022 edit of her look, we suggest shopping for an oversized cut and styling it with straight legged pants.
