Princess Kate slips under the radar in Veja trainers and £102 earrings at music festival


Kate, Princess of Wales, 41, was photographed at the Houghton Hall music festival last weekend, which she attended with her friend Rose Hanbury.

For this occasion, the Princess looked casual in a black off-the-shoulder long-sleeved top and skinny black jeans.

The mother of three additionally wore her VEJA Esplar trainers in white with rose gold metallic detailing, which are still available to buy for £120.

Kate has worn these trainers consistently since 2021 when she debuted them for a trip to Scotland.

The £120 shoes feature the brand’s distinctive metallic V logo on the side.

The most recent time that Kate wore these trainers was in May earlier this year for a trip to the Dame Kelly Holmes Trust in Bath.

Their description says: “Veja’s trainers are named in tribute to the Brazilian NGO the label has been working with since 2005 – it supports organic and family farming in the Nordeste region.

“This pair is assembled from smooth white leather with metallic gold detailing and organic cotton laces. The sole is made using some rice waste, Amazon rubber and recycled rubber.”

Kate looked effortlessly cool wearing these trainers at the Houghton Hall music festival, where she also accessorised with her Sezane “Esme” gold brass earrings.

The Princess has only worn these earrings once before – at Royal Ascot earlier this year with her stunning red Alexander McQueen dress.

The earrings, which originally sold for $130 (£102) have the following description: “The Esmee earrings feature an ornate Indian design with black beads on gold-plated brass.”

As the earrings are a past-season design, they are unfortunately no longer in stock.

At the Houghton Hall music festival, Kate wore her sleek straight brown hair behind her ears to show off her gorgeous £102 earrings.

She could also be seen wearing a small silver chain necklace with an undisclosed jewel at the bottom, although its identification is unclear from the photograph.

Kate was also wearing a silver bangle and a red ribbon around her wrist, which may have been an entry badge for the Princess.

The 41-year-old was photographed sipping on a spicy margarita cocktail, and was reported by the Daily Mail to leave a £700 tip.

Kate attended the festival with her friend Rose Hanbury, who lives very near the Princess’s Norfolk home Anmer Hall.
