Zara Tindall is one of the most relatable members of the British royal family and so is her fashion options.
“It depends on the occasion and what’s needed,” Zara told the Telegraph. “But I don’t really enjoy shopping. I’m more of an online shopper. It’s a case of when needs must, for me.”
The mother-of-two opts for comfort in her everyday style.
“My style is very, very casual,” she shared. “Especially if I’m just at home with the children in the country. It’s jeans, flat boots or trainers and then a gilet or a coat over the top. Through the years, whenever going to an occasion, the main lesson that my mother taught us was just to make sure that you look presentable, clean and tidy. That was always handed down to us.”
However, she shared her excitement to spend on a walk-in-wardrobe.
“I have one, finally”. “Everyone want a walk in wardrobe, don’t they? It was always a big thing getting older and realising that dream of having a walk in wardrobe. That thing where you can find everything you need on hand immediately is amazing. When we moved into our current house that was a must for us.” Asked what’s inside the wardrobe, the royal revealed it stores some treasured keepsakes. “I’ve kept my riding boots from my World Championship win. Presents always become sentimental from family, too. And then you have pieces that you go back to that you rely on in different moods, or that make you feel good about yourself on different occasions.”
She goes on to share about her family life. Married to former rugby player Mike Tindall since 2011,with two daughters under six; Mia, five, and Lena, one.
“Organising children’s closets is a nightmare because they grow out of things so quickly,” she admitted. “I find myself trying to move those clothes on as quickly as you’ve just put them in the drawers. It’s a little bit depressing when you realise how quickly they’re growing. Sifting through clothes and the laundry loads takes up a lot more of my time than it used to; two children and I do three different [equestrian] disciplines so that’s three sets of clothes. There’s a lot going on in the washing room at my house.”
