Kate Middleton has been getting a lot of time in with Queen Elizabeth II lately. They've been spending the holiday at the royal matriarch's home in Sandringham, and on Sunday the family kicked off the New Year by attending service at St. Mary Magdalena church on the estate. Middleton's parents, Carole and Michael, also joined for the outing, but what most royal fans noticed about the group was that both Middleton and the queen matched in elegant and put-together coordinating purple outfits. (The Duchess of Cambridge has been known to twin with other royals, including her late mother-in-law, Princess Diana.)
Although they weren't photographed together, a few images captured Middleton strolling into the service with Prince William. For the occasion she wore a high-collared wool coatdress in dark purple featuring an orange print. She paired the coat with dark brown Stuart Weitzman knee-high boots and a bright violet fedora with brown accents. Queen Elizabeth made her way to the church in a separate car, where photographers captured her in a regal purple hat with a matching purple suit that she accessorized with a sparkling brooch. Clearly, both Kate and Queen Elizabeth were inspired by the same color when they got ready in the morning.
The royal children—Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis—didn't attend the service, but they're also at Sandringham with their mom and dad. (Middleton and Prince William reportedly had a couple of surprises in store for them at Christmas and Prince George even had some cute baking time with his grandparents.) Apparently, the low-key family time has meant a lot to Kate: A source recently told Us Weekly that she's really hoping for more of it in 2020 and, in particular, wants her kids to spend time with their cousin Archie. That might be a little hard since Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are on the other side of the pond currently on vacation, but Kate still seems to be enjoying her time bonding with other members of the family. In addition to matching with the queen, she had an adorable twinning moment with Charlotte on Christmas Day.
