Meghan Markle Just Wore Her Most "Extra" Heels Yet for a Night Out

Understandably, Meghan Markle's wardrobe has gotten a lot more conservative since putting her Hollywood days behind her, but that doesn't mean she can't still have a little fun with what she wears. Markle just stepped out in London with Prince Harry for the 100 Days to Peace gala, which appears to be more cocktail attire than black-tie. Her look for the occasion was a far cry from the all-black suit she wore the previous day. Instead, Markle chose a cobalt blue midi dress by Jason Wu (which seems to be becoming a favorite designer of hers).
She paired the dress with a satin Dior clutch and perhaps her most "extra" shoes since becoming engaged to Harry: matching blue Aquazzura satin pumps with a jewel-embellished slingback strap. While the heels are on the subtle end of the "extra" spectrum, they're a far cry from the basic black and nude pumps she's been wearing as of late, looking more like something straight out of Carrie Bradshaw's closet. (Remember those blue wedding Manolo Blahniks?)
See Markle's latest look below and shop sparkly heels that are just the right amount of "extra."
