Dressed for the occasion, Duchess Sophie's dress and blazer combination platformed chic, elegant style with a dash of classic countryside tailoring. Sophie's dress of choice is the Me + Em Ponte Fit midi flare dress in navy, which she's worn a few times already. It's no wonder that the easy to wear £250 dress is out of stock. Luckily this similar style from The Shirt Company is a fantastic alternative choice.

Me + Em is a brand that's popular with the female members of the Royal Family and is often seen among Kate Middleton's dresses.

To compliment the look, and cope with the rainy weather, the Duchess sported a stunning blazer made from a light brown wool fabric, accented with orange plaid detailing.

The sky's the limit with this piece, which is as budget-friendly as it is wearable.

The hardworking royal stepped out at the Driffield Show in Yorkshire, England’s largest one-day country show. Earlier this year, the Duchess became the president of the Driffield Agricultural Society - and it appears she's taken to the role like a duck to water.

As well as taking time to judge the pig classes, meet with local farmers and producers, and inspect the produce entries - the Duchess also took the time to have a well-deserved little tipple.
