Kate Middleton has long been known to mix high and low pieces like a pro, and her most recent outfit is no exception. Yes, we love seeing her in full-on royal regalia like tiaras and heirloom jewelry, but it's refreshing to see the Duchess of Cambridge in her most comfortable, relaxed environment: her home. She participated in a video call to promote the Hold Still 2020 competition for the National Portrait Gallery, which calls on Brits to submit their photographs taken during the lockdown.

For the video call, Middleton wore Zara's Printed Dress, which was marked down from $67 to $13 before it sold out. The floral dress has a lovely vintage-from-grandma vibe that's very on-trend right now. Luckily, I found some worthy contenders that look similar to Middleton's sold-out Zara dress.
