I'm a royal fashion expert and this is Zara Tindall's most stylish outfit - as she's named in Tatler's Best Dressed List
Tatler Magazine revealed its annual Best Dressed List earlier this week, and it came as no surprise that Zara Tindall made the cut.
Ranked at number seven, Princess Anne 's daughter was recognised for her ongoing style evolution and increasingly refined wardrobe.
Zara has truly found her fashion stride in recent years, consistently delivering polished, confident looks that reflect her bubbly personality.
While she's had plenty of standout moments in 2025, one particular outfit made a lasting impression.
On the opening day of Royal Ascot, Zara looked radiant in a custom sky blue dress by one of her go-to designers, Rebecca Vallance.
Adapted from a ready-to-wear mini dress, the bespoke version featured a lace panel down the front and an elegant fit-and-flare silhouette that Zara wears so well.
The piece was elevated with a classic collar, puffed sleeves and a charming bow belt, striking the perfect balance between timeless and modern.
Though she previously wore the design at the Magic Millions carnival in Australia, she refreshed it at Ascot with a clever change of accessories.
Working with her stylist Annie Miall, Zara opted for dusky pink accents, including an Anya Hindmarch Maud clutch and Emmy London Rebecca pumps - two labels also favoured by the Princess of Wales.
Finishing the look was a coordinating hat by Sarah Cant and dazzling diamond earrings from Calleija.
The overall effect was a chic, elevated approach to pastel dressing.
Zara's outfit is the ideal inspiration for summer weddings, garden parties or race days. Even better? The shorter version is still available - and it's currently on sale.
Inspired by the delicate lace detailing, I've rounded up beautiful blue dresses on the high street that echo the royal's look.
You'll also find similar accessories, from coordinating heels and clutches to sparkling drop earrings, which deliver the same wow factor - at every price point.

Jeff Brazier has 'dropped' legal case against Jackiey Budden as he patches up his feud with sons Freddy and Bobby
has reportedly dropped his legal case against Jade Goody 's mum Jackiey Budden. It was previously revealed that Jeff, had set up a court date to stop his youngest son Freddy, 20, from seeing his maternal grandmother amid rising concerns over his well being. Jeff has long insisted she is a bad influence on the troubled youngster - with the pair enduring a series of very public disputes over the years. However now The Sun has revealed that the family have now patched things up and Jeff has dropped his legal case. A source told the publication that Freddy is once again living with Jackiey in her flat in South London, but is also spending time with Jeff and Bobby. Last week the TV presenter was seen reunited with his sons at 101 Dalmatians: The Musical at the Eventim Apollo in London, where Jeff made his West End debut. The source said: 'Effectively they've all made peace for the time being and are trying to make things better again, which is doing them the world of good. 'It's actually the perfect outcome for everyone, and exactly what Jade would have wanted. The boys are happier for it, and the constant in-fighting has stopped... for now. While Jeff and Jackiey will never be friends, they added: 'Freddy remains devoted to her — and was threatening to leave the UK to be with his grandmother abroad if Jeff carried on his legal case.' While a few weeks ago it still looked as though court action would be taken, they have instead reached a peaceful resolution. Daily Mail has contacted Jeff's representatives for comment. Back in June The Mail On Sunday revealed that Freddy was again spending time at Jackiey's Bermondsey flat despite his father filing court paperwork in an effort to keep his son away. Family friends say the duo remain 'extremely close,' explaining: 'Jeff was never going to keep Freddy away from his Nanny for very long - they've always had a strong bond, Jeff may hate her for all sorts of reasons going back many years, but Freddy loves her very much. 'They had a great time together, playing with her dog and catching up at her flat - where he has often stayed over the years. Whatever Jeff hoped to achieve with his legal efforts, it hasn't worked.' In June, Freddy announced on Instagram that he was going to a rehabilitation centre in Spain, admitting he had been addicted to smoking since he was 12 and was keen to seek treatment. He said: 'I've been smoking from the age of 12 and it's time to stop it was a bad coping mechanism that turned into an addiction something I relied on and something that made me feel sane and somewhat okay.' But days after the admission, Freddy posted again online saying he had changed his mind, writing: 'You know what I don't need rehab. I just need a holiday with a good group of boys or a retreat.' Freddy lost his mother, former Big Brother star Jade, to cervical cancer in 2009 when he was just four years old. During his appearance on BBC's Celebrity Race Across the World, Freddy spoke on the grief he has suffered following his mother's tragic passing. He said: 'I don't really remember being held by my mum… if I had more memories with her, it would have made it a whole lot harder for me, but I think I would rather that than not remembering the things I had done with my mum.'

One Tree Hill star Jana Kramer reacts to rumor her husband Allan Russell is on the Bumble dating app
Jana Kramer says she isn't worried about rumors her husband is stepping out on her. The 72 Hours actress, whose husband Allan Russell, 41, revealed some very personal information about their sex life, opened up about the issue Monday in her Whine Down podcast. 'I literally trust Allan so much. Did you get the email about Bumble?' Kramer, 41, asked her co-host, claiming that someone had been impersonating the former Scottish soccer player on the dating app. 'Remember how there was this thing going around being like, "Oh, Allan is on a dating app?" And Allan and I were joking about it. It's hilarious,' she said. Showing her trust in her husband, she said, 'But I wouldn't even look into that now. In years past, I would have 1,000 percent looked into it.' However, the One Tree Hill alumna said there is still some cause for concern, as there is allegedly ''a fake Bumble account going around and they're using his picture.' View this post on Instagram A post shared by Jana Kramer (@kramergirl) She explained, 'There's not a piece of me' that believes the rumors. Kramer said her marriage to Russell is 'so different than my last one' to former Buffalo Bills tight-end Mike Caussin, 38, who was unfaithful to her several times and eventually entered into treatment for sex addiction. The couple were married from 2015–2021, and they share two children: Jolie, nine, and Jace, six. Kramer's first marriage to Michael Gambino, 47, was a violent one. Gambino was convicted on attempted murder charges after a 2005 incident in which he choked the actress until she was unconscious. He was released in 2010 and took his own life two years later. She shared a short-lived one-month marriage with That Thing You Do actor Johnathon Schaech in 2010. Kramer began dating Russell is January 2023, and by November of that year they had welcomed their son Roman, 21 months. They married legally in January 2024 and held a formal ceremony in July. 'Happy 1st wedding anniversary my love,' Kramer wrote on social media last month sharing photos from their big day. 'It's been a year full of love, growth, and adventure. Thank you for loving me the way you do and for making this first year more beautiful than I ever imagined. I wouldn't want to do life with anyone else. Happy anniversary my love.' 'We have everything to last,' she said Monday of her relationship with Russell. 'I didn't have anything to hold on to in my last marriages. So that's why it's so different. So, it's like, hold on now to what you know to be the truth of what you do have.'
