Duchess Meghan, 42, and Prince Harry, 39, are currently in the Canadian city of Whistler, where they are visiting a training camp for the Ivictus Games.
Since arriving in the city earlier this week, the pair have been photographed together several times and now alert fans have noticed a certain detail in the Duchess's outfit.
Warns: – Don't mess with me
On Thursday, Harry and Meghan wrapped themselves in warmer clothes for the winter weather, and now the Duchess's outfit has caused many people's eyes to widen.
according to the people Meghan wore a pair of Sorel Joan winter boots. She apparently kept these items in the closet for a number of years. Meghan's Closet Chronicles Instagram profile writes that the Duchess has been seen wearing the same shoes for more than ten years.

The Norwegian and British royal families appear to be big fans of reuse, and Meghan's sister-in-law, Princess Kate (42), is also known to use clothes and shoes more than once.
People mentions, among other things, a pair of knee-high boots from the brand Penelope Chilvers that Kate bought in 2004. She has used them on a number of occasions in the past, including when she went hiking in the Himalayas in 2016.

The princess herself has also been photographed wearing Sorel Joan shoes several times, and Meghan has now chosen a pair strikingly similar to the ones Kate wore in Sweden in 2018, People reported.
– Forgive me
Caroline Fagel, royal household expert at Se og Hør, thinks it's a very good thing that the royal family recycles.
-The only thing missing is for them to wear their winter boots again (and again and again)! Royal or not; Recycling is the only sensible thing to do. Fortunately, more and more royals are becoming aware of sustainable fashion, and are turning more and more to reuse. I think this is both important and true!
Vagle also sees a distinct difference in the two styles of women's clothing.
– I actually don't think they have a particularly similar style! Kate is more classic, while Meghan has a bit more 'edge'. They are two women of the same age who keep up with fashion and know what is trending. They both have the financial resources to shop at exclusive designers.
The fact that Meghan may be looking up to her sister-in-law is nothing new. The former “Suits” actor is still out, accused of imitating the princess.
The Duchess isn't actually the only one who's been inspired by Kate. Former President's daughter Ivanka Trump has also been photographed several times in the same outfit as the princess.
This summer, Trump made headlines when she shared a photo of herself wearing a turquoise Jenny Packham dress. The dress was the same type that Princess Kate wore in 2021, but in a different color.
The details were well noticed on social media, with many people taking to the comments section to point out the similarity.
One person wrote: “OMG Ivanka's dress is the same dress Kate wore to the 007 premiere but in blue it's so beautiful!”

“She's copying Kate!”, opined another.
So it may seem that the British Princess is someone that many in the fashion world look up to.
