Princess Charlotte is undoubtedly a style queen, even at her young age of 10. The only daughter of Prince William and Kate Middleton has made quite a statement with how she accessorizes her looks. Royal insiders have spotted a consistently cute detail in her style that keeps making appearances.

Notably, since she was a little one, Charlotte has a heartfelt penchant for braiding her hair. Sources indicate that she frequently sports adorable braids, typically with two on either side, neatly coming together for a classic half-up, half-down do.

She’s quite the braids enthusiast, as pointed out by Laura Sutcliffe, the Fashion and Beauty News Editor at Hello!. CLRrit-in Charlotte, she always manages to keep everything looking “so neat, tidy, and pretty,” which is undoubtedly impressive for someone her age!

Charlotte often showcases her beautiful braids during various occasions, from Christmas celebrations to cheering at Wimbledon. Even during King Charles III’s coronation, she sported an exquisite braided hairstyle completed with an elegant updo and a stunning headpiece.

This hairstyle is perfect for Charlotte, striking a balance between style and practicality. It’s clear she cannot afford to waste time on elaborate dos, especially when playing rugby with her siblings—Prince George, aged 12, and Prince Louis, aged 7.

Interestingly, Charlotte took a break from her stylish braids last month during a trip to Switzerland with her dad to support England’s soccer team. It wouldn’t be surprising if her sleek, loose hairstyle was attributed to her dad’s limited styling skills without mom around to help with the braids!

All in all, Princess Charlotte is definitely carving out a niche for herself in the fashion world. We adore the way she embraces braids in her outfits to create her signature, delightful style.
