And we almost missed it

In the midst of Prince William and his two children, Princess George and Princess Charlotte, posing for an iconic selfie with the one and only Taylor Swift backstage at her Eras Tour show in London, we almost missed this twinning fashion moment between 9-year-old Charlotte and a fellow British royal family member who also attended the concert that day. 

While posing for a photo with the Cruel Summer singer (which breaks the royal “no selfies” rule), Princess Charlotte smiles widely while her older brother, Prince George, and their dad, Prince William, both stand behind her. For the occasion, the 9-year-old princess wore a sparkly gold blouse with her hair draped over her shoulders. 

Little did we know that Prince William’s cousin, Zara Tindall, showed up to the concert wearing a similar ensemble to the young royal. In an Instagram slideshow shared by British television personality Natalie Pinkham, who attended the concert with Zara and Mike Tindall, one photo shows Pinkham posing with the royal couple. 

In the snap, Zara looks too cool for school in a sparkly gold top (just like Charlotte), denim shorts, white boots and a pair of white shades. Meanwhile, Mike stands beside his wife and Pinkham sporting pink shorts, a pink shirt and a white graphic tee. 

Just so you know, Princess Charlotte and Prince George attended the concert with their dad Prince William on his 42nd birthday. Prior to snapping a selfie with Swift, Kate Middleton, 42, shared a photo of her husband and her three children jumping on their joint Instagram page. The caption read, “Happy birthday Papa, we all love you so much!” and the Princess of Wales signed the message with her initial, “C,” and added an “x” as a kiss.

We need more royal selfies and royal fashion moments, please and thank you!
