Meghan Markle’s Best Looks
Is it just us, or is Meghan Markle making the Royal Family a million times more glamorous? Not only has she swept into Harry’s life and lit it up, but she mesmerises us with her effortlessly elegant style. She has a quietly confident air and grace to her, despite her new role being a world apart from how she grew up.
Let’s have a closer look at how she does it!
The Coats
Meghan appreciates a classic Winter coat (as you can see above) and the way it can help a person to make a smart entrance. She often wears a wool coat with a large tie waist to highlight her slim shape or she’ll wear a coat with a high colour that’s sharp and tailored. Even on the day of her pregnancy announcement, at Princess Eugenie’s wedding to Jack Brooksbank, she sensibly opted to arrive in a coat in contrast to some guests who shivered in the heavy winds. If you want to be more like Meghan, you need to think about getting a smart coat.
The Trousers
Meghan really suits trousers as she has very slender legs that can sometimes appear too bony when she wears a skirt. Trousers help her look more chic and elegant, especially if she wears them with her hair tied back in a tight bun.
Her features are very tiny, so tying her hair back emphasises her petite nose and the twinkle of mischief in her eye. With her trousers on and her hair up, Meghan can act the part of Princess for hours, even if she feels on the inside like she doesn’t know what she’s doing.

The Pencil Skirts
Notice that when Meghan does get her legs out, she wears high-waisted midi skirts. She has a gorgeous bottom, one that Pippa Middleton would be jealous of, and the high-waisted skirts show off her curves. She’s a big fan of leather and her high waisted leather pencil skirts are to die for. Quite often she wears her hair loose when she’s in a skirt as it softens her overall look. Whether it’s in smooth, glossy waves or in a loose chignon, when Meghan wears a feminine skirt, her hair looks looser and it makes her appear more womanly. Harry’s a lucky man.
The Halterneck Dresses

Meghan has amazing arms, they’re super toned. On the occasions that call for her to wear a dress, she always shows her arms off. On her wedding day, the Stella McCartney dress that she wore to her evening reception cemented her position as a Princess.

Standing by Prince Harry’s side at the Invictus Games in Sydney, she wore a green halterneck dress. The green complemented her skin tone and the cut showed off her arms. Meghan knows her best features and dresses to show them off.

Pregnancy Style
There’s been no sense of Meghan dressing down now that she’s about to become a mum. Not many mums to be could pull off a £10,000 Oscar De La Renta Dress or wear killer stilletos like Meghan has been doing. In the early stages of pregnancy, her bump is tiny so she’s continuing to be herself for as long as possible. We admire that!

In terms of her hair, it’s certainly true that she’s glowing. In pregnancy, oestrogen levels increase during pregnancy, making what you have gorgeously thick, healthy and shiny.
The kick side is that she may well experience post partum hair loss three to six months after giving birth like most new mums. This is because your hormones revert to normal and the hair that was supposed to fall out, but didn’t, comes out all at once. The trick to dealing with that is to care for your scalp, because that’s where the hair grows. Massage is key. She could spend two to three minutes massaging her hair in the shower. Also, it would help to take vitamin and mineral supplements especially, hyaluronic acid and spirulina supplements to promote hydration and mineralisation, leading to thicker, healthier hair.
What we like about Meghan is that she doesn’t seem to let much bother her. She makes sure she looks immaculate and then she goes out with her man by her side and chats to the public. Then she goes out and does the same the next day. She has some style staples like her coats and her tapered trousers and she mixes it up with halternecks and pencil skirts.
