Kate Middleton And Meghan Markle Match Looks With Jewelled Earrings And Updos For Prince Charles' Birthday Party

Days after Kate Middleton made us frantically Google where to buy an oversized hair band following her appearance at Westminster Abbey, the Duchess of Cambridge and her sister-in-law, Meghan Markle, are inspiring our wardrobes yet again.

Last night, Kate dazzled in a pink, one-shoulder dress with ruffle detail as she arrived at Buckingham Palace for Prince Charles' 70th birthday bash.

Meanwhile, Meghan - who is pregnant with her first child - was spotted arriving at the Palace, driven in a car by her husband Prince Harry, in what appeared to be a black dress with white stitching.

While it's unknown who designed the royals' looks (don't worry, we're working on it), let's be honest, it was the duchess' matching oversized drop earrings and up-dos that really caught out attention.

For the occasion, Kate recycled the same statement earrings she wore to the BAFTAs in 2017, while Meghan wore a pair of diamond chandelier earrings she recently wore in Fiji during her royal tour.

The royals also scraped back their hair into high chignons for the occasion, which has led us to speculate the duchesses consulted each other on their 'dos that evening.

Anyone else love the thought of Meghan and Kate sharing a bottle of Prosecco and getting ready together at Kensington Palace?

It is widely believed a number of famous guests and royals from Europe attended the private party, hosted by the Queen, for Prince Charles, held in the State Rooms.

Earlier on in the day, Prince William and Kate visited South Yorkshire where they opened McLaren Automotive's new Composites Technology Centre before travelling to Barnsley's local Centrepoint hostel.
