"Her Royal Highness also opened the refurbished Winter Gardens and the new University Centre Weston @UCWeston, and met staff and pupils at Fairmead School in Yeovil which caters for children and young people with additional learning needs."

Royal fans rushed to the comments to compliment Anne's effortless style, with one writing: "Love HRH Princess Royal! Hardworking, influential, stylish but most of all her kindness and tenderness to Her Majesty".

Another fan penned: "What a lovely picture of Princess Anne," while a third wrote: "Princess Anne has such a beautiful heartwarming smile!" 

It's not the first time Anne has stunned royal fans with her elegant style during royal engagements this week.

On Tuesday, the royal swapped her brightly coloured co-ords and patterned pieces for her official military uniform, donning the smart ensemble to an investiture ceremony at Windsor Castle - and we seriously loved her blazer.
