Meghan Markle's Impressive Coat Collection Is All the Fall Outfit Inspiration We Need

Published on 9/13/2019 at 9:05 AM

Meghan Markle might be the Duchess of Sussex, but she's also the queen of coats. Whether a peacoat, an overcoat, or a casual belted trench, she has a pretty impressive collection. A well-tailored coat is Meghan's go-to fashion item for the Fall and Winter months. We'll definitely be following suit and investing in some chic outerwear.

A structured coat like Meghan's easily elevates any outfit by adding a smart, polished finish. But it's not only her love of simple, sophisticated coats that's inspiring our Fall wardrobe. It's also her choice of colors that makes her look so effortlessly stylish. Meghan often wears the same recurring palette of black, white, and beige with splashes of green and navy. She'll often pair her fabulous coats with either a casual shirtdress or a sensible blouse and pencil skirt, always accessorized with pointed-toe pumps (sometimes in a fun animal print) and a very cute bag (like Rejina Pyo's Olivia bag).

For Meghan's evening looks, she either goes for tonal dressing (by matching her dress to her coat and hat) or chooses an elegant dress with sheer sleeves. Whenever she steps out for an appearance, she always looks quite minimal and put-together, and we can't get enough of it. If you, like us, are looking for some Fall outfit inspiration that's fit for a royal, then keep reading for 19 of Meghan's best ever looks for the chilly months.
