Kate Middleton has become something of a fashion icon throughout her years in Kensington Palace. But along with putting together beautiful looks for herself, the Duchess of Cambridge has also been on a mission to pass the fashion bug on to her daughter. In fact, there are at least 20 times Princess Charlotte and Kate Middleton have matched over the years. Whether it's matching shades of their favorite colors, or coordinated colors from the same family, the mother-daughter duo clearly has a beautifully stocked wardrobe.
Operating within the framework of royal fashion protocol, both mother and daughter are most often photographed wearing dresses while out in public together. And for the years when Princess Charlotte was just learning to walk on her own and gain the independence to do so, Middleton was often holding her when photos were taken. The close proximity and colorful dresses make it easy to see when they made an effort to sync up their styles before going out.
So, without further ado, let's take a look at some of the times when Middleton and daughter Princess Charlotte dressed to match one another. I dare you to make it to the end of this slideshow without forcing your own kids to match you.
The First Time They Matched
Their OG matching look, Kate Middleton and Princess Charlotte were fashionably in sync for the teeny baby's christening in 2015. Middleton's lightly colored clothes were a match for Princess Charlotte's christening gown.
When They Matched In Maroon

So light pink it's almost white, Middleton and baby Princess Charlotte were a dream in this look.

Even when they don't directly match, Middleton and Princess Charlotte are usually color-coordinated, like they were here with their beige outfits.
When They Matched Their Wedding Looks

That same pastel look from 2018 also featured Princess Charlotte wearing a mini pair of sunglasses to match the ones on her mom's head.
When They Were Matching Ski Bunnies
Perhaps their cutest matching look, Middleton and Princess Charlotte wore white ski suits while on a family vacation. It was as sweet as you would imagine.
When Even Their Accessories Matched
Middleton and Princess Charlotte matched beautifully in shades of white and cream for Prince Harry's wedding with Meghan Markle — down to the coordinated floral arrangements.
When They Both Wore Floral Print
Every member of the family was dressed in a shade of blue for this royal shot, but Princess Charlotte and Middleton took it up a notch with their floral print dresses.
When They Were Both Green Without Envy
On this Christmas outing, the details of Middleton's hat and had perfectly complemented the color of Princess Charlotte's coat. The only one here with style envy is me.
When They Both Rocked A Peacoat
Middleton and Princess Charlotte are often seen wearing a pea coat over their dresses in the cooler months, proving the style works regardless of your size.
When They Wore Sundresses
While watching Prince William play in a polo match in 2019, Middleton and Princess Charlotte both short-sleeved floral sundresses in shades of pink. Oh and they also both rocked cute gladiator sandals.
When They Wore Christmas Red
Although you can't see their looks super well, Princess Charlotte and Middleton appear to both be wearing red coats on their way to Christmas lunch at Buckingham Palace in 2019.
When Their Attitudes Matched
OK, so maybe their clothes don't match here, but you can't tell me that Princess Charlotte didn't inherit her mom's sass and excitement along with her fashion sense. There's no mistaking that these two are mother and daughter in this snap.
Over the years, the royal mother and daughter have been seen in matching colors more often than not. Here's hoping that tradition lives on for many years — and many outfits — to come.
