Princess Kate Just Wore the Bag Trend That Feels So Fresh for Spring

Tomorrow is the big day: the coronation of King Charles III. Royals, diplomats, and celebrities from near and far are flocking to London to celebrate the historic moment. The Prince and Princess of Wales recently met with some well-wishers who'd already begun lining the coronation procession route. Oh, and they also ducked into a pub for a pint. How fun is that?

Princess Kate wore a brilliant red Eponine London coat with a white Flippy Wiggle dress from Suzannah London peeking out underneath for the occasion. However, it was her accessories that caught my attention. Specifically, her white Mulberry bag, which matched her Jimmy Choo shoes. White purses may not be the most practical choice for non-royals like us, but it's a trend that feels incredibly fresh for spring and summer.

Erin Fitzpatrick
Senior News Editor

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 12 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of senior news editor (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
