The royals regularly recycle their favourite looks – and the Queen Consort is no different.

When she visited Colchester last week she wore a cream coloured coat and tan Lock & Co hat.

And just seven days later the Queen Consort wore the same tan hat to another engagement at Cheltenham Racecourse.

The royal is known for wearing her wardrobe on repeat and is a fan of Lock & Co hats with them in a variety of colours.

Last week the King and Queen Consort headed to Colchester Castle, in High Street, as part of a special trip to celebrate the Roman settlement’s newfound city status.

The monarch was greeted by a Guard of Honour and the city’s British Army Band as thousands of flag-wavering crowds cheered and the National Anthem played.

Before venturing inside the heritage-draped venue, the 74-year-old royal, alongside wife Camilla, spent time outside the castle, ignoring chants from protestors.

While outside, Their Majesties met with charity representatives, volunteers and refugees settled in Colchester who all starred in last year’s city status procession.

School children visiting the Castle Museum for educational purposes also interacted with the royals in what was a heart-warming moment they will likely never forget.

Having wrapped up the external items of the strict itinerary The King and The Queen Consort then headed inside what is the largest Norman Keep in Europe.

They later visited Colchester Library.

Today the Queen Consort has arrived at Cheltenham Festival for the second day of races at the annual event.

Camilla was among many who came smartly dressed despite the Jockey Club easing restrictions on what people can wear to its courses.

She wore a silk dress with a camel cashmere coat by British fashion designer Anna Valentine, paired with boots by Russell & Bromley.

The royal also sported a camel hat and a silver brooch which belonged to the late Queen and features a galloping horse and rider to the Gloucestershire event on Wednesday, traditionally known as Ladies’ Day.
