In England, everyone is certain that sweet Princess Charlotte, the determined and full of personality middle child, is a perfect replica of her great-grandmother, Queen Elizabeth. And indeed, the Queen’s childhood photos support this hypothesis. However, when it comes to the princess’ style and fashion sense, you shouldn’t look any further than her mother, Duchess Kate Middleton. See, if you look through the royal photo albums, you might notice a recurring theme – quite a few of Princess Charlotte’s beautiful clothes had appeared before in a bigger version on mother Kate Middleton.

As we noticed her in the column, Middleton is quite a fan of coats, and her fondness for designer coats is very apt for the British weather. Being such a responsible mother, the Duchess makes sure her daughter is properly dressed – both in warmth and style. Of course, they would never wear their identical clothes while together – Middleton isn’t a fan of tricks of this sort. And yet, some of Middleton’s statement coats appeared in perfect mini versions, even made of the same fabric. For example, after Kate wore a green coat to an official dinner with the President of the Netherlands at the Elysee Palace, Charlotte appeared with a very similar coat at a Christmas event.
