The Duchess of Sussex might have celebrated her 40th birthday on Wednesday, but we're still not over the gorgeous at-home outfit that she wore to mark the occasion with actress Melissa McCarthy.

Meghan looked beautiful wrapped up in creamy cashmere and wearing some of her most treasured jewellery, including two new constellation necklaces that represented the star signs of her two children, Archie and Lili.

In fact, we've taken a closer look at the jewels she chose to wear in the tongue-in-cheek Instagram video, which saw the royal call on 40 of her friends to offer 40 minutes of mentorship to a woman in need.

In the video, you can also see that Meghan is sporting her diamond pinky ring, which is a custom Lorraine Schwartz design - created from a gift of diamonds that Meghan and Harry received from the Middle East. How special is that?

And if you're wondering about the rest of her outfit, it's thought that the Duchess got cosy in a cashmere set from Los Angeles-based brand CO - choosing a tank top ($395 / £285), cardigan ($795 / £573) and what looks like a pair of trousers in a stretch crepe fabric (£695 / £500).
