I really liked the way she was able to add a few edgier touches to an otherwise “royal” look. The turned up collar and the earrings were very Meghan. However, I think she needs to find some nude hose in a slightly darker color (especially as she’ll probably wear them so much in her new life.) And the coat only looked nice when left open because it was in bad need of tailoring. It was too big around the waist and even bagged a bit around the upper back. Very nice choices overall though, and I’m sure she’ll perfect this more conservative look in time.

All the pieces of the outfit are gorgeous but Meghan needs to take a leaf out of Kate's book and get some tailoring done to ensure they fit her properly. Otherwise this was a proper outfit for the event and she looked the part

I want Meghan's entire bag collection! When she has an official outing the first thing I look forward to seeing is her handbag :) They are always so chic and complement her outfit perfectly. PS. I'm so happy I found this blog. I love the way it's so easy to get all the outfit details and find products. Keep up the great work!

She looked lovely in cream but as everyone mentioned the coat was too big and it did not flatter her figure. It was too baggy around the back and waist. Hitting her too low on her waist line. I would love to see her hair up as well. Loved her shoes and bag as ell as hat! They are a darling couple!

I love Meghan's neat take on the beret. I imagine she's feeling her way with the formality of some aspects of her new role but I'm sure she'll find herself a good tailor before long. I love her style and I'm so pleased she wears trousers often. Thank you for another great blog!

Love Meghan's consistent gorgeousness and perfection. The flowing contrasting navy under cream! So beautiful! Prince Harry is the luckiest man in the world. But why include that terrifying pic of the Queen and Camilla? Fortunately poor Charles is serenely oblivious.

That photo was so unfortunate, just not flattering in any way. I would guess that Kate's closet is far more seasoned than Meghan's, with time I'm sure she'll correct the fit issue.

I don't think her clothes need tailoring, as everyone seems to be pointing out. She isn't a curvy woman. She has an almost box shaped torso. This is just the way these coats look on her.

I read some negative critiques of her hat, which I think was lovely and in fact quite similar to the gat she wore to Christmas services. I look forward to her becoming more comfortable wearing different style hats. She obviously has her own style and shouldn't be constantly compared to Kate. Both women are beautiful in their own right. This is a big cultural difference for Ms. Markle in addition to becoming a working royal.

I like Meghan, I just cant get away with the fact that she does not wear stockings/tights/pantyhose when she is out 'dressed', there is noting nicer than seeing a nice finished leg and not flesh, also her shoes are too big she needs a half insole to help her foot fill the shoe, sorry just an observation
