Kate Middleton doesn't just repeat her outfits whenever she feels like it — the decision is meticulous and often based on the season. She slips into one cream Alexander McQueen lace dress at the same time each Summer, and her espadrille shoes and woven clutches get the most wear this time of year too.

Kate's wardrobe staples are all sophisticated, but she especially loves to show off her preppy side when the weather gets warm. Much to our benefit, her lightweight pieces are must haves that never go out of style. Read on to see them all, then shop the trusty basics when you scroll.
