Royal style watchers often compare the Duchess of Cambridge's classic style to that of her late mother-in-law, Diana the Princess of Wales, and we can certainly see why. Both ladies are known for rocking timeless items that stand the test of time; from dress coats to nude high heels, all their looks have a distinctive royal edge. Luxury brand Tod's sell the D-bag, which was named after the mother of Prince William and Harry. And what's more, she often wore the tan version of the tote when she was photographed leaving the gym. Similarly, Duchess Kate owns the bag in grey and it looked great when she was snapped carrying it, coupled with her white trench coat.

Diana personally asked Lana Marks to create a 'one off' handbag for her in 1995. Lana came up a dazzling top-handle tote which Diana described as "the most beautiful handbag imaginable".
