She also appeared to wear colour-matching drop earrings.

Royal fans appeared to have loved the royal’s look and took to social media to express their adoration.

One user wrote on Instagram: “What a great autumn look! I just love the burgundy with those textured pants. I want an outfit like this!”

Another one said: “She always looks great, her looks are cohesive, appropriate for the event, well-tailored and pressed.”

A third one added: “This ensemble is definitely on the right track. The bag and shoes are gorgeous.”
