A mum who has been copying Kate Middleton's outfits for three years has spent £3,000 on clothes.
Anna Reichel, 33, first wanted to dress like the Duchess after seeing pictures of her leaving the hospital following the birth of Princess Charlotte.
She wanted to look just as 'fresh and beautiful' as Kate Middleton when she gave birth, and after basing her clothes from pictures of Kate online, before she knew it she had completely transformed her wardrobe.
Anna has recreated 100 different outfits from the Duchess and has spent £3,000 on her wardrobe.
The 33-year-old, from Ethiopia: said: "When I was pregnant three years ago, I wanted to look as good as Kate Middleton did after she gave birth to Princess Charlotte.
"There are a lot of pictures of her online and she often wears casual looks that can be worn on an everyday basis.
"I prefer her casual looks because you often can't wear gowns or long dresses but jeans and a fresh blazer are very wearable.
"Most of the items I have thrifted from second hand shops - it's very sustainable.
"She uses a lot of basic items like white shirts that are easy to reuse so recreating the outfits is fairly simple.
"I have a giant dressing room to store all of my clothes; it's getting bigger everyday!"
Anna has been a royal fan since childhood and her grandmother encouraged her to watch Royal events on TV.
The mum-of-two, originally from Germany, added: "My grandmother loved Princess Diana so we watched all the Royal events on TV and that's how my interest started.
"I often get compliments; a lot of people say I'm overdressed but I'm fine with it.
"If I thrift the outfit, it can cost anywhere from £30 to £100.
"I mostly shop from places like Zara, H&M, Mango, Vinted, eBay, and Poshmark.
"I have to get a lot of the clothes shipped over from the UK."
Anna isn't the only one who turns to the royals for style inspiration.
Katie Wolfe, 36, has been recreating Kate Middleton's outfits for 5 years and has spent a $2,000, and Katie Sturino has based her individual style on Meghan Markle.
While Kate Middleton is known for her royal title, her clothes do not always come with a royal price tag.
She has regularly been spotted wearing high-street brands such as Gap, H&M, & Other Stories and Zara, and has even been papped shopping at budget superstore, the Range.
