All eyes are on Princess Eugenie at the moment amid pregnancy watch – with the daughter of Sarah Fergusson and Prince Andrew even drawing attention as she left an office building on London. But this time attention has fallen on her striking white-rimmed sunglasses, which have even drawn style comparisons to the late Princess Diana.
The buzz comes amid an exciting time for the Princess, who has been busy promoting her anti-slavery work - watch the video below.
With the princess looking pretty in a black floral dress, strapped heels and monogrammed handbag, it was the glasses that everyone wants to talk about.
Belonging to the Mr. Boho range, the block, round lenses feature a dramatic white trim, and recall a strong 1990s vibe. But the look is also being compared to one first sported by Diana.

‘Back in 1993, the late royal stepped out in polka dots to watch the Men’s Singles at Wimbledon and she accessorized with a pair of round-framed shades, similar in shape to Eugenie’s statement-making piece,’ gushed Hello magazine.

The fashion attention is a nice break for Eugenie, with British tabloids convinced she’s about to share some happy family news. Bookies are also convinced, slashing the odds of announcement to 1:4. 'It looks like the Royals are getting broody,' Alex Apati of Ladbrokes told The Sun.
'With Meghan’s first on the way and Kate’s odds of baby number four continuing to tumble, we’ve once again cut odds on Eugenie announcing a pregnancy.'
