Kate Middleton has long been a fashion icon, known for her timeless and sophisticated style. The Princess of Wales is often seen re-wearing her favorite pieces, from evening gowns to handbags, demonstrating her commitment to sustainable fashion.
One of her most frequently worn items is the Castaner Carina Suede Wedge Espadrilles . Since 2019, she’s been spotted wearing the Toasted Brown version of these wedges at various events, from the Chelsea Flower Show to polo matches. She often pairs them with midi and maxi dresses, creating an elegant spring/summer ensemble.
Priced at $161, Kate’s Carina Suede Wedge Espadrilles are a versatile addition to any wardrobe. They’re perfect for pairing with wedding guest attire during the spring and summer months, or for casual lunches and summer vacations.
While Kate typically wears her Carina Suede Wedge Espadrilles with floral midi dresses and skirts, they can also be paired with wide-leg linen trousers or denim shorts. The luxurious leather and suede materials make them suitable for work, offering a stylish alternative to traditional high heels, reports the Mirror .
These shoes feature a 3.5-inch heel, making them comfortable and easy to walk in , with a self-tie fastening around the ankle. The round closed toe is crafted from 100% suede finished leather, and they have a subtle cut out detail at the back.
Currently, Selfridges has all sizes from 3 to 8 available, but they’re selling out quickly, so you’ll need to act fast to snag a pair.
