Princess Anne steps out in dad trainers and check flares
Anybody who keeps a close eye on Princess Anne's royal wardrobe will likely have noticed that the Princess Royal has been favouring one footwear style in particular recently.
For several engagements over the last few weeks, Princess Anne has slipped into a knee-high pair of boots, donning the fashion-forward footwear for visits to Bradford and Northern France, proving the boots to be a versatile choice.
It looked like the stylish boots were set to be Princess Anne's footwear of choice for the foreseeable, but she did an about-turn last week when she stepped out in a rather unexpected pair of dad trainers!
Popular with Gen Z, dad trainers are loved for offering comfort over style, making them perfect for days that require lots of walking.
Princess Anne's pair of choice featured a bold white stripe along the sole, contrasting the pristine black design of the rest of the shoe.

While she went for an athleisure look on her feet, the rest of Princess Anne's ensemble was as you'd expect from the 74-year-old.
She opted to wear a coordinating check pair of trousers and a button-up blazer, adding a smart navy jacket and matching gloves, keeping her warm during her visit to Sheffield.
Further layering up against the chill, the Princess Royal wore a stylish silk scarf tied loosely around her shoulders. She carried a timeless black leather bag and looked joyful as she walked around energy provider E.ON's Blackburn Meadows renewable energy plant.

Princess Anne's autumn looks
The Princess Royal's wardrobe is incredibly versatile, and she switches with ease between casual styles and formal attire, though she looks most comfortable in her laidback, outdoorsy outfits, comprising of wax jackets and sensible trousers.
This summer she debuted her most casual look to date, opting to wear a soft flannel checked shirt with blue jeans and trainers for a horse-related engagement.
Her daughter, Zara Tindall, rocks low-key outfits just as well, regularly favouring casual white jeans and trainers for royal outings. Her equestrian uniform of leggings and fleeces suits the mother-of-three well too, and helps her remain ready for anything, be it the school run, horse training or a day out with the family.
We look forward to seeing if her daughters, Mia, 10, and Lena, six, inherit their mother and grandmother's unique, laidback royal style.
