Princess Anne met with the CEO of Opportunity Bank Uganda, Mr Owen Amanya, on Wednesday, October 26. For the occasion, she donned a casual, almost all-beige outfit with a pair of on-trend chunky trainers.
Princess Anne attended the official launch of a new branch of the Opportunity Bank Uganda Limited in Nakivale Refugee settlement in Isingiro District.
To meet with the CEO, the royal was seen wearing a white shirt and a pair of casual, loose grey trousers.
Over the shirt, she donned a thin, beige gilet, which matched her safari-like sun hat.
To complete the look, Anne carried a khaki shoulder bag, which matched the subdued colours of her outfit.

The trainers were flatter than the ones Anne wore earlier this week, which were more similar to Princess Diana’s, according to fashion expert and personal stylist Miranda Holder.
Looking at Anne’s whole outfit on Wednesday, Miranda said: “She looked relaxed and comfortable in shades of beige, ivory, and white, wearing chinos, a classic white shirt and an on-trend, safari-style gilet, accented with a coordinating sunhat and a Longchamp bag.
“She finished the look with a pair of stylish chunky trainers – a possible nod to the popular ‘ugly trainer’ trend that has remained popular with everyone from fashion bloggers to music stars for the last few seasons.
“This gives the look a youthful edge, and the footwear is not unlike the oversized choices often favoured by Princess Diana in one of her many iconic sporty looks.”
Yesterday, October 27, Anne wore a similar outfit to Wednesday’s, including the trousers, gilet, and trainers, but donned a checked shirt instead of her white one. This was to visit a Save the Children refugee settlement.
Later in the evening, the royal changed into something more elegant for a dinner at the High Commissioner’s residence in Uganda, dressing up for the occasion.
She wore a knee-length red button dress, with a white blazer on top. But it was the royal’s gold diamond brooch that caught the eyes of royal fans. Anne accessorised with her gold ribbon brooch, which is made of gold studded with diamonds and is supposed to depict a loosely-knotted ribbon.
Although some reports say the brooch is meant to resemble a snake, it is more likely meant to be an abstract design. The piece has been in Anne’s jewellery collection for five decades, with the first time she wore the brooch being at Buckingham Palace in February 1969. The occasion was meeting Colonel Frank Borman, the American astronaut who served as commander of the Apollo 8 mission.
