Kate Middleton, who is still undergoing cancer treatment, might not have been able to attend the 2024 Paris Olympics (as multiple reports speculated), but that didn’t stop the Princess of Wales from serving a super casual look in a surprise video message she recorded alongside her husband, Prince William, to congratulate Team Great Britain on their performance during the Games.

After Snoop Dogg says “Greeting, loved ones” to everyone watching, the clip quickly cuts to the Prince and Princess of Wales standing in what appears to be a backyard. While standing next to her hubby, Princess Catherine says into the camera, “From all of us watching at home, congratulations to Team GB!” Then, Prince William adds, “Well done on all you’ve achieved. You've been an inspiration to us all.”

In the vid, Princess Catherine is seen rocking the Ralph Lauren “Tori” Breton Stripe Top (I found a similar option here for $128), which made its debut in the Ralph Lauren Blue Label 2012 collection (per Express).

Though we couldn’t find the exact Ralph Lauren top the royal mother of three wore in the video, I did find three lookalike options that could be the perfect addition to your soon-to-be fall wardrobe. See below:

1. Ralph Lauren Striped Ribbed Long-Sleeve Tee in Cruise Navy/White

What makes this Ralph Lauren ribbed crewneck tee a winner in my book is that it is made of a comfortable stretch material, which can, in turn, complement one’s natural curves.

2. Ralph Lauren Striped Boatneck Mariner Tee in Deckwash White/Sapphire

The Ralph Lauren Striped Boatneck Mariner Tee in the color deck wash white/sapphire is a suitable choice for anyone trying to achieve Princess Kate’s striped shirt look from the video. This boatneck top is a chic and versatile option for any casual outfit.

3. Ralph Lauren Striped Short-Sleeve Cropped Sweater in Mascarpone Cream/Black

Want to have a cropped moment? Then, try this one on for size. This ribbed crewneck sweater can be paired with a cute midi skirt or even high-waisted pants. Consider me sold.

According to numerous reports, it was presumed that Prince William would travel to France to attend the Paris Games alongside two of his children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte. And word on the (royal) street was that Princess Catherine wanted to join them.

Still, Princess Catherine didn’t miss an opportunity to give us a stylish fashion look.
