To mark Mountain Rescue Awareness Day, the Prince and Princess of Wales shared a heartwarming new family photograph on Sunday, which was taken earlier this year.

The sweet new snapshot showed the Princess of Wales after completing the gruelling Three Peaks Challenge in June. The joyous snap revealed the royal couple alongside their three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.

The trio looked so proud of their mother as they beamed at the camera. Looking suitably casual, Princess Charlotte donned a lovely, outdoor-appropriate outfit featuring a simple navy blue knitted sweatshirt and a pair of slightly flared jeans.

According to the royal fashion blog Princess Charlotte Style, the young royal was wearing a pair of jeans from the high street store Gap. 

Known as the "Blue 70s High Waisted Flare Jeans," they cost £30 and feature a slightly flared hem and front stitched pockets.

The author of the blog said of the style: "They were initially thought to be a pair by Ralph Lauren, but the pocket size and stitching are not a match, and the RL pair do not have a back yoke. One of my readers has suggested they may instead be the GAP Kids High Rise '70s Flare Jeans. After closely looking at the pockets, seams, and stitching, I'm confident these are a match for Charlotte's jeans!"

Charlotte also wore a pair of eye-catching Adidas Gazelle trainers, featuring bold orange stripes. Royal fans tend to see Charlotte dressed in resplendent, formal attire, so this sporty choice was quite the change.

It appears that Charlotte first wore the denim staples in her 11th birthday picture, which was released in May. 

Princess Charlotte's wardrobe transition

This year, we've seen Charlotte slowly revamp her wardrobe as she edges towards her teenage years. At Trooping the Colour 2026, the brunette royal stepped out in a dress by high-end designer Alessandra Rich, and she also wore a Ted Baker charm bracelet at Wimbledon, alongside her blue, bespoke frock.

"Princess Charlotte's move towards more grown-up designer brands reflects a transition many children make around the ages of 11 and 12," Charlotte Kewley, baby and children's fashion stylist, previously told HELLO!. 

"Hers is simply a more public and polished version of what we see happening in many families," the talented professional mused.

"A lot of the childrenswear brands she wore when she was younger stop at pre-teen sizing, and as children get older, they naturally begin looking for styles that feel a little more sophisticated while still being age-appropriate".
