One of Carole Middleton's Favorite Bags—From a Princess Kate-Approved Brand—Just Got a Very Regal Upgrade

When it comes to style, Princess Kate continues to influence royal fans worldwide. Kate's mom, Carole Middleton, also remains a style icon, whose fashion choices often prove to be just as popular. Case in point: her Royal Ascot bag just got a seriously regal update.

When Carole attended Ladies Day at Royal Ascot on June 18, 2026, she wore a stylish light blue coat dress, while carrying an Emmy London bag. The Mabel Bag retails for $945 and is available in a variety of shades and materials. For Ascot, Carole opted for the Natural Raffia version of Emmy London's Mabel Bag.

While a raffia bag was ideal for an event taking place during the summer months, the colder weather likely requires a slightly different style. Enter Emmy London's Mabel Bag in a Brown Tweed colorway.

Per the designer's website, the new version of the classic bag is constructed from a "tonal camel brown and pale blue houndstooth tweed," which has been "woven in Somerset [in England] by a renowned British mill."

Princess Kate has worn tweed clothing on numerous occasions, making the new Emmy London bag a very welcome, regal update.

Once again, Princess Kate and mom Carole have given royal fans the ideal bag to carry throughout the fall and winter months in 2026.
