Meghan Markle has the coolest collection of sunglasses, and when she stepped out for her New York City baby shower back while pregnant with son Archie, one thing we noticed is she looked as glam as ever with her movie star shades.

The Duchess of Sussex's oversized sunglasses – the Air Heart style by Le Specs – keep selling out, but the good news is the sunnies, which are currently retailing for around a £55 ($60) retail price, are available again.

The acetate and gold-tone sunnies are in a timeless cat-eye silhouette that’s flattering for all face shapes. 

And as someone who owns a couple of pairs of Le Specs styles, I can see why Meghan loves them (and even Jennifer Lopez has a pair). They're so reasonably priced but look expensive, even up close!

Meghan Markle's Le Specs sunglasses collection

The Duchess of Sussex is such a fan of Le Specs that she actually has three pairs: the 'Air Heart's, as well as the 'Bandwagon' and 'Le Danzing' – the latter of which she wore in September 2023 to the Invictus Games in Germany.

    Fans say...

    “So nice I bought them twice. I love the look of these glasses, no annoying nose toggles to get stuck in your hair, the metal arms make them look classy, they can be dressed up or down either way they make a look! I love them so much, I lost them on a trip recent and nearly cried when I didn’t find them at Nordstrom again. When I found them straight from the website I nearly ordered two pairs!”

    Meghan wore these classic shades when she stepped out with husband Prince Harry in Beverly Hills after making the move to California, and then again as she arrived for the 2023 Invictus Games in Germany, wearing it with a scarf by Hermès in high-low style.

    The Le Danzings are described by Le Specs as "a contemporary twist on the classic round".

    “This is my third pair in the Bandwagon style, I love them. The frames are a great shape and go with everything. Love the polarised ones for days out on the water. Very lightweight and durable sunnies.”

    The trendy round sunglasses that Meghan Markle wore to Wimbledon come in six colours and have a 4.9-star rating.

    Fans say...

    “My favorite sunglasses! I recently purchased these sunglasses in black and I’m very happy with the purchase. The frame is very chic and stylish. The sunglasses go with everything whether I wear jeans and a t-shirt or a fancy dress. These will be one of my frequent wears for sure!”

    If you want to look like a movie star, like Duchess Meghan did when she stepped out during her glamorous baby shower weekend in NYC, the Air Hearts – which come in nine different colours! – are the shades for you. The oversized cat eye sunnies, also loved by Olivia Palermo, give Audrey Hepburn vibes.

When Duchess Meghan has worn Le Specs 'Air Heart' sunglasses

Meghan was spotted wearing Le Specs 'Air Heart' sunglasses in February 2019 as she left Manhattan's The Mark Hotel during her glamorous baby shower weekend, teaming them with winter-ready black skinny maternity jeans by Hatch and a William Vintage Courrèges coat.

The royal was also spotted rocking the very same shades in December 2021, during a shopping trip in Montecito, California. Meghan teamed her sunnies with a smart brown wool coat by Massimo Dutti.

The Air Hearts, with their retro Hollywood vibe, have a cool celebrity following, with Olivia Palermo also a fan of the style.

These classic shades will look great with just about any outfit from blue jeans to a little black dress, or even nothing but a swimsuit!
