On Monday, the Duchess of Edinburgh looked incredible as she arrived at Guernsey harbour to join crew aboard the Ocean Youth Trust South’s vessel the Prolific during the royal visit to Guernsey.
Looking in great spirits, the royal, who is married to Prince Edward, delighted onlookers in her relaxed, boating attire that featured shorts, a polo shirt, a cagoule jacket and espadrilles. But did you spot her uber cool beach bag?
The mother-of-two carried a fabulous piece of arm candy by Anya Hindmarch.

We also loved the royal’s hair, which looked to have had a bit of a revamp! Sophie, 59, often wears her famous blonde mane in a lightly waved style if she wears it loose, or up in a sleek bun. But as she arrived in Guernsey, the mother of Lady Louise Windsor and James, Earl of Wessex’s mane, looked sleek and lightly curled at the ends. Stunning!

Sophie the fashion icon
The Duchess’s fashion choices are widely followed but she remains very modest about being a style icon.
© GettyAt a fashion event back in 2018, she was asked about her style and remarked: “I can’t claim that my track record in fashion has always been as good as it is today, but you know, we learn in time.”
We have to say we don’t agree with that one, Sophie always nails it!
