Aunt of Prince William and Prince Harry, Duchess Sophie is most definitely a royal fashion plate, often spotted cycling through trendy items like horse-girl-core statement belts and knee-high black suede boots. So when a royal as stylish as our gal Soph wears a style more than once, you know it has the makings of a classic. Case in point? The shawl-collar coat, which has become one of the duchess's go-to jacket styles.

On Jan. 15, the royal made a visit to a Community Shop in Lambeth, an area just outside of central London, which is one of 13 UK locations that are a part of a affordable food and community socializing initiative. The space acts as a place for community members to gather, socialize and get access to discounted food and meals. Duchess Sophie took time to browse the shelves, serve warm meals to customers and chat with the locals get a sense of the store's impact on the area.

During the visit, Duchess Sophie donned an eggplant-colored sweater, a dark green wide-pleated skirt, a pair of burgundy pointed-toe boots, a teal suede bag with brown leather accents and, to top it all off, one of her signature shawl-collar wrap coats in an off-white shade. Care to emulate the effortlessly elegant aesthetic? You're in luck—I was able to source some similar styles so you, too, could bundle up like a royal. Read ahead to shop four fab shawl-collar coats, like this gorgeous caramel-colored piece ($200) from Quince.
