Meghan Markle's First Public-Appearance Outfit

last updated 13 August 2019

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry made their first official public appearance today as an engaged couple for events surrounding World AIDS day, a cause that Harry is passionate about. Given the late-fall chill, the charming couple coordinated their looks with navy wool coats, which Meghan paired with the shoe trend that fashion girls can't shop wearing this season: slouch boots. She completed the outfit with a khaki maxi skirt and a burgundy top-handle handbag. It was the perfect polished winter look for the royal-bride-to-be.

Speaking of Markle's boots, we were happy to see that they actually won't break the bank. The brand is KG Kurt Geiger (which Kendall Jenner and Selena Gomez are also fans of), and they retail for $295. It already appears that Markle is following in Kate Middleton's footsteps by mixing more affordable pieces with her designer duds. As to be expected, the boots are quickly selling out in the black, but the gray slouch boots are still fully stocked.
