While Royals aren’t necessarily known for their street style, we can’t help but pay homage to these Princess Diana and Meghan Markle moments that spawned a mood on their own.

Tube socks and sneaks
Princess Diana was ahead of her time in so many ways...Including this tube sock and sneaker combo trend we’re seeing on celebs like Bella Hadid and Emily Ratajowski. Coupled with the bike shorts (that’ve also made a comeback), this is what celeb stylist dreams are made of...

The epitome of effortlessness, this look has so many things going for it, still today. In addition to repping a worthy cause (the British Lung Foundation), Princess Di book-ended the look with a cap and brown leather boots we’d want our hands on today (note that detail tho).

Pattern love: Stripes
While she might’ve taken her own page from Princess Diana’s style book, Meghan is an icon in her own right when it comes to our fashion inspos. These stripes are not only flattering and no-fuss, they simultaneously make the Duchess of Sussex put-together and ready to take on whatever the day throws at her.

Pattern love: Polka dots
No stranger to patterns herself, we’re loving the playful look Princess Diana has going here...From the socks and kitten heels combo, to the red accents throughout. And paired with the loose-fitting sweater, it is an example of the unexpected outfits we’ve come to be delighted by when traversing down Lady Di’s style archives.

Flares, if you dare
What’s old is new again, and this is true of what may be one of the most flattering jean cuts out there...the flare. Paired with a signature boyfriend shirt, and belt, it’s the perfect versatile outfit for so many occasions.

Princess Diana did not shy away from colour-blocking, clearly. While she kept the wash consistent, we’re down with mixing up the colours and washes too, but this look is definitely one to take with you for inspo while thrifting.

Blazer and turtleneck
Another option for styling those blazers, pairing it with a simple, solid turtleneck staple elevates this look while keeping it chic and simple.

This loose-fitter makes us actually excited it’s sweater-weather again. And we’re willing to bet the Olsens would agree...

Meghan mastering the model off duty look (before it was officially a look), she looks both casual and comfy – and what’s better then feeling as well as looking good?
