The Cosmic Watchdog

The Princess of Wales debuted a pair of new burgundy-coloured boots during the Qatar State Visit on Tuesday (December 3) as she represented the Royal Family. The 42-year-old looked stunning in the burgundy ensemble that featured the Gianvito Rossi footwear.

Both Princess Kate and Princess William took part in the major state visit procession and formally welcomed members of the Qatar Royal Family. The Amir of Qatar Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani and his wife Sheikha Jawaher were greeted by a spectacular procession which ended at Horse Guards Parade in central London, and was followed by a private lunch.

Kate glowed in her striking colourful outfit which was created by bespoke designers. Her coat dress was designed by Sarah Burton and she accessorised with a matching hat by Sahar Millinery as well as breath-taking jewellery worth over £20,000.

Princess Kate completed the look with designer boots which are reported to be worth an eye-watering £1,650. She donned the Rhymes style which features a pointed toe and is bang on trend this season.

The Express has found a selection of alternative boots that cost a fraction of the price and would give you a royal glow this winter.
