Fresh from her bright and beautiful appearance with Prince Harry in Birkenhead earlier in the week [1], Meghan Markle [2] stepped out solo on Wednesday as she made a visit to animal welfare charity Mayhew, one of the charities she has recently been made patron of [3]. It's the first of two royal engagements for Meghan today; later, she will join Prince Harry for a visit to the Royal Albert Hall, where they will attend the premiere of Cirque du Soleil's "Totem," in support of Harry's charity Sentebale [4].

For her first outing of the day, Meghan teamed high end with a bargain buy, wearing a classic Armani coat over a knit dress from H&M's maternity range, Mama. It makes sense that the duchess is looking to more affordable brands when it comes to her pregnancy purchases: after all, with the royal baby due in just a few months [6], she won't need this dress for long. Slingback pumps and a Stella McCartney bag finished the neutral-hued look. Keep reading to see it for yourself and to shop that dress.
