Princess Anne was the epitome of autumnal style as she visited the Citizens Advice Bureau in Malvern, Worcestershire, to celebrate the staff’s years of service.

The Princess Royal, 73, looked effortlessly elegant in a sleek red and green midi skirt and blazer.

It is understood she unveiled a plaque for the honored staff, who then presented the delighted mum-of-two with a bouquet of flowers.

The daughter of Queen Elizabeth II grinned as she held her gift, which was tied with a decorative blue bow.

Under her jacket she wore a crimson turtleneck, which was decorated with a checked print.

The royal accessorized with simple black heels, leather gloves and a matching crossbody bag.

Anne styled her hair in her classic updo as she was greeted by staff for the engagement.

It’s not the first time the Princess Royal – who is known for recycling her chic looks – has worn this sophisticated ensemble.

Last year she donned the outfit as she attended the Braemar Highland Gathering in Scotland with her brother King Charles – where the Queen, who died just days later, was unable to attend for the first time in her 70-year reign.

Meanwhile, Anne paid a moving tribute to her mother earlier this week when she wore Queen Elizabeth II’s Admiral’s Cloak for Choral Evensong at London’s Temple Church.

Dressed in the stunningly elegant cape that the late monarch wore in several portraits – including a famous series of photographs by Cecil Beaton – the Princess Royal read a Bible passage from 1 Corinthians.

The queen, who died last September, can also be seen in an iconic portrait by Annie Leibovitz from 2007.

Anne seemed moved by the evening service in the Temple Church, which is a royal feature – meaning it falls under the direct jurisdiction of the monarch and not the province in which it lies.

Her voice sounded confident as she read the text, which began with the words, “Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, yet I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.”

“And though I have the gift of prophecy and understand all mysteries and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, yet I am nothing.”

A passage from 1 Corinthians was also read during the queen’s funeral.

It is believed that Anne’s sleek black cloak was prized by her mother, as she chose to wear it in more than one portrait.

It has gold buttons and intricate detailing on the collar closures, but is otherwise a simple yet regal design.

Anne wore a blue patterned dress under the coat and styled her hair in a classic, neat updo.

Cecil Beaton, who over the years became high society’s favorite photographer, depicted the Queen in a selection of images from 1968.

Photos from the year show the monarch smiling to the side, in her element as she dons the black cape.
