Meghan looked gorgeous in a Givenchy pencil skirt and blouse

Meghan attended the UN Nelson Mandela Day 2022 commemoration in NYC, giving her Suits wardrobe a renaissance in a silhouette-enhancing pencil skirt from Givenchy. Elevating her designer ensemble, she slipped into Manolo Blahnik heels, adding Cartier jewellery and Vanessa Tugendhaft earrings.

Exactly four years ago during an engagement in Ireland in 2018, the Duchess wore the same outfit in emerald green. Everything from her slick low ponytail down to her choice to rock pointed-toe heels was the same - proving the right look can easily be recycled.

Duchess of Cornwall

Duchess Camilla looked beautiful in blue during her visit to Cornwall

The Duchess of Cornwall looked beautiful in blue to mark a poignant visit to Cornwall with Prince Charles this week. The royals headed to the South West of England to celebrate 70 years since Charles became the Prince of Wales. 

Adorned with pretty florals, Duchess Camilla looked radiant in the summery number, armed with her favourite raffia beach bag by Heidi Klein.

Queen Letizia of Spain

Queen Letizia recycled a red wrap dress from Cherubina on Monday

Turning heads in a ravishing red dress by Seville-based designer, Cherubina, Queen Letizia looked absolutely stunning in a past-season buy, which she previously wore during the Spanish Armed Forces' Day festivities in 2019. 

Opting for an all-red look, Letizia accessorised her wrap dress with cherry stilettos and her favourite pair of ruby cabochon earrings by jeweller, Aldao 1911. 

A picture of elegance, the Spanish Queen could be seen sporting her signature bouncy blowdry, as well as her go-to makeup combo.

Princess Charlene of Monaco

Princess Charlene made a glamorous appearance at the 73rd Monaco Red Cross Ball Gala

Stepping out at the 73rd Monaco Red Cross Ball Gala on Monday night, the 44-year-old royal proved her penchant for style is unrivalled as she enchanted royal fans in a Cinderella-blue ensemble.

The wife of Prince Albert donned a stunning Prada dress adorned with delicate sequins and floral beading. The floor-length gown was complete with a scooped neckline, cropped sleeves, silhouette-enhancing A-line skirt and fitted bodice.
