Princess Charlene is the queen of the royal hair switch-up and her latest outing marks a new hair era.

The Zimbabwean-born Monogasque royal, 46, was seen arriving at the Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten ahead of the opening of the new Monaco World at Miniatur Wunderland in Hamburg on Thursday.

Charlene wore a cream felt longline coat with a black scarf tied around her neck and draped down her front. She added a subtle touch of glam with her impressive diamond earrings and was seen signing autographs with a rule-breaking pillar box red manicure.

Her makeup was characteristically glam with a cool-toned sparkly eyeshadow look with a black liquid liner drawn across the lashline to emphasise her natural lashes. She also wore a peach-toned pink lipstick in a matte finish.

The star of the show was the Princess' transformed hair. Having been spotted last week at the Sainte Devote rugby tournament at Stade Louis II with a sweeping side fringe and her pixie cut worn tidily tucked behind her ears, the royal was seen debuting a full fringe and the lengths appeared longer in how they had been styled with a middle part.
