The Duchess of Sussex made an online appearance at the Girl Up Leadership Summit on Tuesday afternoon, as she gave an inspiring keynote speech on youth empowerment. Meghan, who marked her first official public speaking job since standing down as a working member of the royal family, chose to wear one of her favourite colours for the important engagement. The mother-of-one wore an Adam Lippes number, choosing the brand's 'Pinktucked silk crepe de chine' design for the occasion. What's more, the top was in the sale for just £148, although it is sold out in most retailers. She teamed her elegant blue outfit with natural, glowing makeup and wore her dark hair down in a sleek and shiny style.

In her moving speech, Meghan said: "Your generation is often referred to as digital natives, and you understand that our online world has the power to affirm and support as much as it does to harm. We are not meant to be breaking each other down; we are meant to be building each other up.
"So use your voice both on and offline to do just that – build each other up, support each other," she added.

"There will always be negative voices and sometimes those voices can appear to be outsized, and sometimes they can appear to be painfully loud. You can and will use your own voices to drown out the noise. Because that’s what it is - just noise. But your voices are those of truth. And hope. And your voices can and should be much louder."
