When Kate Middleton isn’t wearing her signature A-line dresses, she’s usually in a pair of skinny jeans and boots. Lately, however, she’s been relying on a chic, polished staple that’s a bit more formal but no less comfortable: wide-leg trousers. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge paid a visit to The Way Youth Zone in Wolverhampton, U.K., to mark Mental Health Awareness Week. 

For the excursion, Middleton needed something sophisticated enough for meetings but laidback enough for a play date with kids. Her Tory Burch polka-dot blouse and Jigsaw Sport pants were the perfect solutions. Scroll down to see how the duchess styled wide-leg trousers and shop similar pieces.

Middleton is a huge fan of classic polka dots.

This is so cute for Zoom meetings. 

The puffed sleeves make this one an extra-cute option. 

A trenchcoat for spring is a must. 

This is such a classic silhouette. 

You can never beat H&M’s prices. 

You’ll never regret investing in such a versatile piece. 

Wide-leg pants are definitely gaining momentum these days. 

I love this oversized silhouette. 

These can be easily dressed up or down. 

A foolproof purchase. 

Hurry: This sale won’t last forever. 

Great for tall girls.
