Meghan Markle Just Proved This Is the One Item Everyone Needs for Spring

Today Meghan Markle and Prince Harry attended the UK team trials for the Inviticus Games. Meghan wore an Inviticus-branded polo shirt, but that's as far as she went with the sportswear theme. Instead of wearing a practical waterproof like Harry, Meghan looked polished in the one thing that has long been considered the ultimate spring must-have—a trench coat. Meghan wore a dark brown knee-length trench by the brand Babaton for Aritizia, worn with a pair of black bootcut jeans by her go-to denim brand Mother.

In September 2017 at the Invictus Games in Toronto, where the couple made their first public appearance together, Meghan wore a pair of blue Mother Denim jeans with rips at the knees. The day after Mother's website traffic increased by over 200%, and the brand experienced a stellar October, beating its own sales forecast by almost 20%.
