Pippa Middleton seems to know just the thing to put on for a quick day of shopping. The mama-to-be [1] stepped out for a weekend trip to COS in London, sporting a purple printed drop-waist shirtdress with a pleated skirt. Sure, Pippa has an eye for gorgeous pieces that flatter her figure and draw attention to her new glow [2], but she also has a secret for making these simple combinations work so well: trusty sneakers.
Pippa's go-to look as of late seems to be a roomy leather tote, functional for all her essentials, one statement midi that's made of something comfortable, and flats. While she could always up the fancy factor with a pair of espadrilles [3], Pippa's fashion motto could easily be "fuss free FTW." Read on to see what we mean, then shop some similar dresses we found if violet is your colour.
