She looks amazing omg.

All time best for me. 😍😍😍

Meghan looks excellent, love that look. Harry’s suit looks incredibly cheap.

DevonUkelele · 25/10/2019 11:19

It's true, it is a mystery to me @itswinetime ... how does one nail the pencil skirt while not nailing the belted dress? 🤔

Don't get me started on men, and how they can do with shabby suits while a woman might put in much effort. I know it's wrong, I know it's unfair.

All I can offer as a flip side is that these men of royal rank and privilege (which used to matter so much) run the risk of being outshone by their wives - we only have to see what is starting to happen when they do something and their wives aren't available - and the press don't care. Even today, Harry is there as an add-on to Meg's gig.

Side add-on to it all. Meg seems to have her duchess cross down pat 😉

No idea where this is and what about.
Meghan and Harry engagement
However her outfit is stunning. Love her hair and the whole curvy, and men give really suits her.
She shouldn't lose any more weight. Megan's figure looks great.
I think we've said before on these threads; Meghan really suits that late 50s early 60s vintage look

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 25/10/2019 11:28

That was supposed to say Mad Men look.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 25/10/2019 11:31

Meghan is wearing the same Hugo Boss skirt as Letizia

Today's and last year's green leather skirt and Silk blouse combo are my favourite Meghan looks.

She looks great! My only quibble is that I might've chosen a slightly darker shade of red for the skirt. Is it basically the red version of her green HB skirt? Those shoes are gorgeous too.

Seeing that green blouse again tempts me to treat myself as it's my birthday next week. The skirt might have to be pleather though!

Love Meghan's outfit!

Encyclo · 25/10/2019 11:48

Speaking of Royal rumours from years gone by, didn't Princess Anne and Tim Lawrence separate at one point? I'm sure I remember it.

StartupRepair · 25/10/2019 11:52

I'm not strong on trends etc but to my old-fashioned eye Meghan's top and skirt colours don't quite go together.

latedecember1963 · 25/10/2019 11:52

Meghan looks fabulous. 😍

bohemia14 · 25/10/2019 11:58

I love Meghan's outfit but I think the top is too low cut for work. It seems unprofessional. It's gorgeous though, but in my view more suited for going out for a gossipy lunch or something.

paradyning · 25/10/2019 12:03

Megs looks incredible! Love that look. If only my pp body could wear it!

Balloondog · 25/10/2019 12:10

Anyone know where Meghan's beautiful berry top/sweater is from? I've been searching for one just like it.

Horsemad · 25/10/2019 12:15

Wow! Yes Meghan, you've nailed it today, stunning!

I love the whole outfit, she looks so trim and stylish.

itswinetime · 25/10/2019 12:18

Is it this jumper??

far fetched this is not official I just think they look similar.

BertrandRussell · 25/10/2019 12:22

I think the jumper’s too low- but I suppose it depends what rhe engagement is. I love the skirt- but don’t like the jumper and shoes with it. Better with a shirt, I think. Like rhe green one.

BlingLoving · 25/10/2019 12:40

She looks great but I think the colours aren't quite right - the shades don't quite work for me.

It's true, it is a mystery to me @itswinetime ... how does one nail the pencil skirt while not nailing the belted dress? 🤔

I think it's because most of the belted dresses have more flowing skirts/ looser looks overall. I go back to the dress she wore when out with the queen shortly after marriage - it was fitted and the belt on that looked great. (the train trip?)

AppleKatie · 25/10/2019 12:42

I think they both look fabulous. But I agree about the skirt colour, with all the money in the world it could be a slightly better shade couldn’t it?

But I do accept that’s me being picky. It’s lovely to see how amazing her figure is in properly fitted clothes.

beanaseireann · 25/10/2019 12:43

I prefer the blouse with the skirt - the green blouse and green leather skirt.
The top is a bit "busty barmaid" or Mad Men curvy.
Leti wore it more "sexy secretary"

But Meghan looks great- so pretty.

itswinetime · 25/10/2019 12:46

Yes I think you might be right @BlingLoving I thought it was the belts that didn't work the. I saw her in the purple dress and something was still missing in the fit.

Thinking back her stronger looks (for me) are always more tailored so I guess I need to stop hating the belt!

SenecaFalls · 25/10/2019 12:46

Mad Men look is the perfect description. She looks fantastic. That berry color must be the "it" shade for the season because it is all over the shops now. It really is a shade that most people can wear and for me, living in a warm climate, it can signal fall autumn if done in lighter fabrics and still be comfortable.

thisenglishlife · 25/10/2019 12:49

Yes, she does have the Duchess cross down @DevonUkelele

I think she looks good overall and I like the hairdo - a new one for her.

I agree that the skirt is too light. I love the top. The skirt comes a bit high up and makes the whole look a bit busty.

It's a no from me .The colours are toonearly matching ,the skirt looks too tight and the neckline is too low .And the heels are too high . It's too much alltogether - low neck ,tight skirt ,high heels .
