Ingrid Alexandra: 3 style lessons we learn from the princess

Linda Shllaku

Young royals usually have their own tastes. Read here which three lessons make up the style of the Norwegian princess.

The daughter of Norwegian Crown Prince Haakon, 50, and his wife Crown Princess Mette-Marit, 50, is celebrating her 20th birthday. A special moment, Ingrid Alexandra, 20, is heading straight towards experiencing her exciting 20s. A decade marked by important transitions and experiences — be it education, relationships or self-development. The little Norwegian girl has now become a real woman – who also lives out her own fashion taste.

Princess Ingrid Alexandra’s first style lesson: She loves simple elegance

Sofia Richie, 25, is considered the pioneer of the “Old Money” movement, having made classic and timeless fashion taste socially acceptable again. The style is inspired by elegance and sophistication, subtle colors and high-quality materials such as cashmere, silk, wool and other fine fabrics. Directly translated, this trend deals with the wardrobe of wealthy family dynasties that have had big money for several generations. Of course, the style looks conservative as well as luxurious – but today it also has a modern component through casual blazer looks. Just like Ingrid Alexandra likes it too.

For official occasions, the young royal combines light-colored blazers with tight trousers and a wide flare. An excellent choice that will suit you for any occasion. But she also reinterprets classic black dresses by choosing models made of shimmering fabrics with flowing designs from her mother’s wardrobe. If the garment emphasizes the waist, it is practically the ideal choice.

2. Style lesson: Recycle? Why not!

Does it always have to be a new, exciting gown for every occasion? This is not only costly, but also not particularly sustainable. So how convenient is it that Ingrid Alexandra and her mother Mette-Marit, 50, practically receive a complete additional wardrobe with the most beautiful ball gowns? This is exactly what the young royal shows during the gala banquet at Christiansborg Palace as part of the celebrations for Prince Christian’s 18th birthday. Mette-Marit staged the sky blue one-shoulder dress with a waist belt at the wedding of Albert, 55, in 2011 Charlène of Monaco, 45.

Princess Ingrid Alexandra gives her mother’s dress new lightness with the matching hairstyle. Like Instagram It Girls, she wears her hair parted in the middle and pulled straight back. A square, bright turquoise box clutch brings another modern element to the playful look. There are just two small levers that reveal your very own understanding of fashion.

3. Style lesson: Cheers to extravagant bags

What would life be without handbags! Something like this could be the motto for Ingrid Alexandra, who doesn’t wear an inconspicuous clutch with her white robe with cape detail, but rather wears a model in the trendy metal gold for the photographers.

A special it-piece with gold chains and sparkling sequins that gives the simple look that much more youthful rebellion. This loosening-up component breathes a lot more character into any formal look without appearing too intrusive. Perfect!
