The Duchess of Cornwall looked beautiful on Thursday as she arrived on the Isle of Skye alongside Prince Charles, as the pair prepared for a visit to meet with local businesses.

Looking the part, Camilla chose to wear a flattering, waist-cinching coat with a tartan lapel and tan heels - perfectly co-ordinating with her husband.

No doubt it was a special day for Charles and Camilla, since they haven't visited the Isle of Skye since 2009. The couple, who are known as the Duke and Duchess of Rothesay in Scotland, were greeted by the Lord-Lieutenant Joanie Whiteford before taking a tour through the town of Portree.

It looks like Camilla added a sapphire and diamond brooch to her look, and sported her usual bouncy blowdry. Plenty of royal fans took to social media to comment on her look, with one writing: "I love the color the Duchess of Cornwall is wearing, it coordinates so nicely with Prince Charles' tartan."
