If there’s one thing royals do well (besides, you know, being royal), it’s keeping up traditions. And right behind that? Nailing the fashion game. From Kate Middleton to Duchess Sophie, royal women consistently serve stylish, elegant looks—and Princess Sofia of Sweden is definitely a name making that list.

On June 13, Princess Sofia and her husband Prince Carl Philip were photographed leaving Drottningholm Palace Chapel in Stockholm after the christening of their five-month-old daughter, Princess Ines. While the day was all about celebrating their newest little royal, we couldn’t help but be distracted by Sofia’s stunning outfit.

She wore a vibrant yellow dress paired with a matching headband and heels—basically sunshine in outfit form. And while the trend forecast has been calling for butter yellow this season (a more muted, pastel take), I'm making a case for bold yellow being included.

The day also marked a personal milestone for the couple—it was their 10th wedding anniversary. Since tying the knot in 2015, they’ve become parents to four children: Prince Alexander, 9, Prince Gabriel, 7, Prince Julian, 4, and now baby Princess Ines, born on February 7.

Royal watchers, take note: the christening ceremony is set to air this Saturday at 8 p.m. on Swedish television. The Swedish royal family even shared a few preview snaps on social media, including a sweet shot of Carl and Sofia smiling up at their daughter, plus close-ups of the gorgeous decor and a full family portrait.

Consider me officially inspired—can’t wait to see what she wears next.
