England's football game against Germany last night was very much a family affair for the Cambridges, as Prince William, Duchess Catherine and their son Prince George descended on Wembley stadium to support the Three Lions.

As you know, they won the game, and many are crediting their 'mascot' George for the historic win, however Kate may have had something to do with it as well.

You see, she wore a white t-shirt and a red blazer, the colours of the England flag, and of course those of the national football team.

If you love her look, you'll be pleased to hear that it's new season Zara. The textured red blazer with gold buttons is even currently reduced by 30% in the Zara sale. It is sold out online, but that doesn't mean you won't be able to find it in store.

Of course, superstitions aside, we all know the victory was all down to the players, but it's nice to think Kate chose her outfit especially, in honour of her team.

Penny grew up in France and studied languages and law at the Sorbonne Nouvelle University in Paris before moving to the UK for her MA in multimedia journalism at Bournemouth University. She moved to the UK permanently and has never looked back (though she does go back regularly to stock up on cheese and wine).

Although she's always loved fashion - she used to create scrapbooks of her favourite trends and looks, including Sienna Miller and Kate Moss' boho phase - her first job was at MoneySavingExpert.com, sourcing the best deals for everything from restaurants to designer sales.

However she quit after two years to follow her true passion, fashion journalism, and after many years of internships and freelance stints at magazines including Red, Cosmopolitan, Stylist and Good Housekeeping, landed her dream job as the Digital Fashion Editor at Marie Claire UK.

Her favourite part of the job is discovering new brands and meeting designers, and travelling the world to attend events and fashion shows. Seeing her first Chanel runway IRL at Paris Fashion Week was a true pinch-me moment.
