Princess Kate is renowned for her stunning outfits and finest attire. The 43-year-old manages to keep up her regal look also thanks to a series of fashion tricks which include sizing up on high heels.
It has been noted by royal fans that her sister-in-law, the Duchess of Sussex, has also picked up on this.
When wearing stilettos it puts more pressure on the ball of your foot, which can lead to inflammation and swelling.
It is a known hack in celebrity circles that by going up a shoe size you can avoid painful issues. Fashion expert Harriet Davey told the Sun: « Celebs often go a size up, or even two, in the shoe department when they’re at an event or on the red carpet and it’s for one reason we can all relate to – to avoid blisters. »
Royal Family members are out on tours or events for hours at a time so it is important to keep up their pristine appearance and splash out on good quality products.
Some labels like Dior and Yves Saint Laurent charge thousands of pounds for the shoes which the royals have stepped out in on star-studded occasions. The Express.co.uk has found some bargain alternative products to help you give your wardrobe a regal feel this winter.
Kate favours many high-end labels including the likes of Jimmy Choo and Gianvito Rossi. On the other hand, Meghan goes for the likes of Manolo Blahnik and Aquazzura.
Yet, Kate is not afraid to shop on the high street and often dons looks from L.K Bennett. The Princess regularly wears the British brand and is seen in court heels as they are versatile, elegant and stylish.
The fern suede pointed-toe courts retail at £199 and come in three different colours, which include black, navy and beige.
These shoes are perfect to wear all year thanks to their subtle tone and can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion.
For many people who wear heels after a certain point, your feet start to feel sore – so these heels are perfect as they are not sky high.
