Meghan has long been a fan of denim, often choosing to buy her staple wardrobe pieces from Mother Denim. Though her exact jeans usually have an endless waitlist, we're loving this similar style that deserve a place in any wardrobe as a style essential.
Speaking from the garden setting, the Duchess added: "I wrote this as a poem for my husband and our son Archie, and then turned it into a book so you can enjoy it too."
