The Princess of Wales has certainly been embracing la dolce vita during her visit to Reggio Emilia in northern Italy.

The Princess looks incredible on her Italy trip<\/p>\n

Catherine was spotted looking as chic as ever, dressed in a cream pinstripe blazer and a slinky, pleated midi skirt. Her hair<\/a> was styled in soft, loose curls tousled gently in the wind. As for her makeup<\/a>? It aligns perfectly with Italy\u2019s approach to effortless beauty.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s perhaps no surprise that the Princess<\/a> has slipped so effortlessly back into the Italian way of life, having spent a few months studying in Florence during her gap year. We imagine she\u2019s well-versed with the world of Italian beauty, and to be more precise: la bella figura.<\/p>\n

Her makeup and hair looked effortlessly elegant<\/p>\n

If your Italian is a little rusty, allow us to explain. While la bella figura translates loosely to \u2018the beautiful figure\u2019, the phrase is more commonly used to describe the Italian philosophy of presenting oneself with grace and elegance. And of course, the Princess is a picture of just that. <\/p>\n

Kate\u2019s makeup feels polished and put-together, yet refined. Her complexion appears softly diffused and beautifully naturale. As for her eyes, she\u2019s stayed true to her signature smoky look \u2014 only this time, it\u2019s noticeably softer. A deep taupe shade has been swept across the lids and seamlessly blended out, while just a touch of eyeliner<\/a> along the lash line adds subtle definition, finished with a generous coat of mascara<\/a>. Bellissima!<\/p>\n

A matching lip and blush combo always works<\/p>\n

The Princess also embraced a coordinated blush-and-lip combination \u2014 an easy way to achieve an instantly elegant yet effortless finish. A soft pink blush was dusted across the apples of her cheeks, while a matching rosy hue was swept across her lips.<\/p>\n

After the Princess\u2019 effortlessly elegant Italian beauty moment, we\u2019re officially craving an Italian summer ourselves.<\/p>\n
