Yes, Kate Middleton<\/a> is the Princess of Wales. However, even with the royal title, she\u2019s still a millennial at heart. While her aesthetic leans more timeless these days (due to Royal Family standards), Middleton\u2019s millennial style resurfaces every once and awhile \u2014 mostly during off-duty outings. For instance, on April 14, the 43-year-old approved two resurfacing Y2K fads. During a nature walk with a group of The Scouts, the fashion muse pulled off skinny jeans<\/a> \u2014 one of her favorite options for laidback looks. But wait, there\u2019s more. Then, Middleton upped the retro vibes with an of-the-moment newsboy cap<\/a>, which proved the second coming of Y2K is here to stay.<\/p>\n

While walking through England\u2019s Lake District, Middleton reflected on her tie to nature, which she called a \u201cvery spiritual and very intense emotional reconnection\u201d in a complementary short film. \u201cNot everyone has that same relationship perhaps with nature, but it is so therefore meaningful for me as a place to balance and find a sense of peace and reconnection in what is otherwise a very busy world,\u201d she said. In the video, Middleton blended into the walk\u2019s earthy tones, starting with her brown skinny jeans from G-Star. The bottoms featured a few cargo-inspired accents, including deep pockets on each leg. Then, the moody colors continued with a tan Emilia Wickstead turtleneck layered underneath a green bomber jacke<\/a>t from British label, Bella Hoskyns. Middleton\u2019s bomber coordinated to her outfit\u2019s pi\u00e8ce de r\u00e9sistance: the green newsboy cap (or a baker boy hat, if you\u2019re British). <\/p>\n

The throwback accessory featured a short, stiff brim, and a broad, slouchy crown, which elevated her outerwear. While a headpiece is not out of the ordinary for the royal (she loves a Philip Treacy hat), a newsboy is certainly unexpected. Perhaps she was inspired by other A-listers, including Kendall Jenner<\/a>, Keke Palmer<\/a>, Salma Hayek<\/a>, Kelly Rowland, and Anne Hathaway (to name a few), who have worn the conversation-starter recently. Under her cap peeked gold hoop earrings, courtesy of Spells of Love. Berghaus hiking boots completed her outdoor attire.<\/p>\n

If you haven\u2019t pulled your newsboy out of storage yet, take it from Middleton: spring is the perfect season to give it a go. So, copy the princess\u2019 look by shopping the curated edit below. And stay tuned to TZR to see which celeb dons a newsboy next.<\/p>\n
