I love that she is wearing Tamara Mellon shoes!! I was only eye balling those shoes yesterday! It’s very expensive if you’re not rich! Tamara Mellon is super pro equal pay for women and that’s why she is not with Jimmy Choo anymore- because they would not pay her what she’s worth or asked for. They told her she was already rich- for a woman!! Happy to see MM using her fashion choices to reflect her beliefs in feminism. She looked beautiful and every item is perfect. Very excited to follow her fashion choices here on in. She is a well informed fashion buyer.

Omg Lennie, I can't believe that anyone would tell any woman that she's rich enough!! Not doubting you but I'm just shocked that those words would actually come out of someone's mouth.

I agree, it's great to see Meghan select clothes and accessories that are in line with the causes she holds close to her heart.

I love, love this outfit!!! And I want every single piece! Especially the dress and purse, where does she keep all her wonderful clothes and accessories?

I happy that her and Harry have found a niche for themselves within the Firm. I could really see Meghan working on women's issues within the Commonwealth family. I think it's going to be very exciting watching them move forward with their roles and of course, with Meghan's great fashion sense!

Yup. Tamara talks about it quite openly. Staggering isn’t?!

I dislike the dress but LOVE everything else. I'm so glad Meghan is staying true to her sense of style and not morphing into a Kate Middleton clone. I know many people think Meghan doesn't dress "royal" enough but I actually love that about her. She reminds me of Queen Letizia in that way.

Love this look, I find that Meghan's fashion choices are always more 'risky' I guess for the royal family but I love them. This look was different and GREAT! Unlike the duchess of cambridge who generally like to play it safe Meghan is way more out there and I like it.
Just a side comment elizabeth, some of the photos are not showing up on my device saying image not found. I would really like to see them. Is ot possiable for you to fix it. Thanks so much.

I am so sorry but this just does not work for me at all. She is representing the Queen and the Commonwealth and she looks unprofessional. I hope she can stay true to her own personal style but this is a job and she is representing more than just herself. All the seperate pieces of the outfit are gorgeous, just not styled like this for this occasion. I actually own the Camilla and Marc blazer and I wear it to work constantly.

I agree Annie, I strongly disliked this outfit. It was like fabulous puzzle pieces that did not work together. She does need to up her royal/professional game and I don't think she needs to copy the Duchess of Cambridge to do that. There are several royals all over the world each with their own style but all royally appropriate. And is it just me or does she spend more money on her outfits than most?

Thanks Meresu and your right, we don't need another Duchess of Cambridge the one we have is pretty fantastic. Hope she can find her sartorial way.

Meghan's clothing spend is definitely much greater than Kate's was in the early royal years. I'm not sure who is paying for Meghan's clothes since she does represent the Crown when at these events.

Could the gold chain be the sweet nothing braclet from catbird?
