Meghan Markle Just Broke the #1 Color Rule
It was only two days ago that Meghan Markle made an appearance in a pair of shoes that defied royal fashion expectations (clue: animal print was involved), and judging by today's latest look, this trend is set to continue. Usually opting for muted hues, such as navy, beige, and black, today Meghan embraced some serious color-clashing with a getup that consisted of a red coat by Sentaler (Markle wore the same coat in camel for Christmas day), purple midi dress by Aritzia, which is unfortunately now sold out, and her much-loved Gabriela Hearst Nina bag.
Polished, tailored and timelessly stylish, this may have all the makings of a classic Meghan look, but the choice of extroverted color palette may be a sign of her much-copied royal style taking a new direction, and we are so here for it. Scroll down to see her full look and shop similar pieces.
