It’s been quite the whirlwind week for Meghan Markle, hasn’t it? Let’s break it down. On Wednesday, April 18, she stepped into her role as a future royal by attending her first official Commonwealth event. The very next evening, she hosted a reception dedicated to Women’s Empowerment, followed by yet another morning reception on Saturday, April 21. This one marked the start of preparations for this year’s Invictus Games in Sydney. And to cap it all off? A special concert celebrating Queen Elizabeth’s 92nd birthday at the iconic Royal Albert Hall that same night. Phew, talk about multitasking!

Now, let’s be honest. Meghan hasn’t skipped a beat when it comes to making fashion statements at these events. From rocking an Altuzarra striped dress to pulling off a classic “Jackie O” little black dress, she’s been absolutely killing it. And her outfit for the Queen’s birthday bash? Oh, it didn’t disappoint. In fact, it sent a subtle yet meaningful message to Her Majesty.

Her Royal Fashion Moment

When Meghan met up with Queen Elizabeth for the second time during this busy week, she chose a look that was nothing short of regal. She wore a navy blue cape dress by Stella McCartney, paired with a striking zodiac clutch by Naeem Khan. Now, here’s where it gets interesting. If you take a closer look at that gold acrylic clutch, priced at $1,490, you’ll notice it’s a nod to her astrological sign. Born on August 4, Meghan is a Leo, and the clutch features Swarovski crystals arranged to represent the Leo constellation. How’s that for a personal touch?

The Cape Dress Legacy

Let’s talk about that cape dress for a moment. It’s a piece that’s been adored by royals everywhere. Queen Letizia of Spain has rocked this style not once, but twice—first in a bold red version with asymmetric sleeves and a longer hem, and later in a shorter khaki green style. Queen Mathilde of Belgium has also been spotted wearing a similar design. Clearly, the cape dress is a timeless choice for royalty.

A Night Out With the Royals

Meghan and her fiancé, Prince Harry, made their entrance at the Royal Albert Hall alongside Prince William, who seemed to be tagging along as a third wheel for once. His wife, Kate Middleton, stayed behind to prepare for the arrival of their third child, who was born on Monday, April 23. It’s always fascinating to see how these royal events unfold, isn’t it?
