With autumn settling in with its crisp breeze and golden hues, Meghan Markle once again proved that no season goes unmarked in her style calendar. The Duchess of Sussex, known for her refined yet relatable fashion sense, recently stepped out in an ensemble that perfectly captured the elegance of fall dressing. Trading summer’s breezy silhouettes for a sleek, dark monochrome look, Markle embodied understated sophistication with a modern edge.

Her latest outing not only reaffirmed her fashion influence but also showcased her knack for effortlessly blending luxury with minimalism. And yes, her look came with a hefty $3.5K price tag.

At a cozy gathering at Godmothers Bookstore in California on October 23, Meghan Markle reunited with her college friend and author Courtney Adamo to support her latest book, The Family Home. The Duchess donned a monochrome look from Cuyana for the event, pairing a $148 brown silk tank with $368 wool wide-leg pants, complemented by Emme Parsons black Loop sandals priced at $615 and an Aquazzura Bow Tie clutch in Espresso for $2,334, according to What Meghan Wore. The look in total look goes over $3.5K in worth with her accessories factored in, but the staples in her outfit clock close to this figure itself. 

During the event, Markle, in addition to impressing with her fashion per What Meghan Wore, also made an impact with her words, opening up about her approach to family life and friendship and revealing her warm, down-to-earth side. She shared how she likes to welcome guests barefoot, with something cozy simmering on the stove, making everyone feel at ease. The Duchess also reflected on the value of genuine laughter and letting children experience boredom to spark creativity, giving an up-close glimpse into her grounded lifestyle alongside Prince Harry and their two kids. Meanwhile, Markle’s public appearance comes amid her preparation for something significant.
