Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, has always been in the limelight for her impeccable style and fashion choices. Recently, she was spotted at Los Angeles International Airport, boarding a flight to London to join her husband, Prince Harry, for the Invictus Games. What caught the attention of many was not just her presence, but the ensemble she donned — a blend of high-end luxury items amounting to a staggering $40,000.
The Duchess's outfit was a masterclass in combining luxury with comfort for travel. She sported a pair of wide-leg, sailor-style Ulla Johnson Polina pants, priced at $590. Complementing the pants were her pointy-toed white Valentino Roman Stud flats, which, although originally retailed for $770, are now sold out.
But it wasn't just the clothing that made a statement. Meghan's accessories added significant value to her overall look. She wore Celine Triomphe sunglasses, priced at $510, and a Janessa Leone Michon hat that costs $267. One of the standout pieces was her Goyard Bellechasse Biaude PM tote, retailing for over $2,000. Peeking out of this logo-covered tote was Markle’s Hermès Brides de Gala scarf, which carries a price tag of $1,225.
However, the most opulent elements of her attire were the pieces adorning her wrist. Meghan stacked a yellow gold Cartier Love bracelet, worth $7,350, alongside her cherished Tank Française watch, priced at $26,000. This particular watch holds sentimental value, as it's believed to have been inherited from Princess Diana. Additionally, the Duchess owns a second two-tone Tank Française engraved with her initials, which she has expressed intentions of passing down to her daughter, Lilibet, in the future.
Amidst the luxury, there was a touch of accessibility in Meghan's ensemble. The navy V-neck sweater she wore came from J.Crew, one of her favored affordable retailers. A similar shrunken cashmere style from the brand retails for a modest $138. This choice underscores that while Meghan has a penchant for high-end fashion, she doesn't shy away from incorporating wallet-friendly staples into her wardrobe.
As Meghan Markle continues to be a global fashion icon, this recent appearance serves as a testament to her ability to seamlessly blend luxury with everyday wear. As she joins Prince Harry for the Invictus Games, fans and fashion enthusiasts alike will be keenly watching for more of her style statements.
