You Don't Need Binoculars to Zoom In on Meghan Markle's Go-To Heels — They're Obvious
Ever since we laid eyes on the strappy heels Meghan Markle wore to announce her engagement to Prince Harry, it was obvious she has good taste in shoes. We've been keeping tabs on Meghan's footwear ever since, including those now-iconic pairs of bow slingbacks she owns and the custom pumps she styled with her Stella McCartney reception dress for her wedding.
These pumps all have one thing in common: they're by Aquazzura. It's safe to say that Meghan puts her trust in the Italian luxury label most often, but there are three more brands she's worn on repeat since taking on royal duties — at least, when she's looking for a height boost from a sharp stiletto or pin-thin bootie. Ahead, find the four designers Meghan keeps on rotation when it comes to her heels, and scoop up some of your own.
