Meghan Markle looked so fabulous on her date night with Prince Harry that we're still thinking about it! The Duchess of Sussex was oh so chic in her signature neutrals for the early 2023 outing in Los Angeles, including a pair of black vegan leather trousers by her go-to contemporary designer Veronica Beard.

While Meghan's sexy Maera skinny vegan leather jeans quickly sold out on the Veronica Beard site, I tracked them down at other retailers - and even found them on sale!

I found the Veronica Beard look for full price at Shopbop, and at MyTheresa, they're 30% off but only available in a few sizes - so hurry!

Duchess Meghan's faux leather leggings: get the look for less

If you’re looking for Meghan's faux leather trousers at a lower price point, I've found a few options.

SPANX Leather-Like Ankle Skinny Pant

First up, we're big fans of Spanx tummy control jeans are so popular, and the shapewear brand does a pair of leggings that's so similar to Meghan's.

M&S Collection Leather Look High Waisted Leggings

There's also this fantastic version at Marks & Spencer, a leggings style with no pockets.

RIVER ISLAND Faux leather skinny trousers

Or, there’s a sexy ‘bum sculpt’ skinny look that’s so similar from River Island.

If you're wondering how to style faux leather trousers, it all depends on the style of the trousers themselves. A five-pocket style is just like a pair of jeans - wear it with a blouse, a knit top or a t-shirt or button-down with a blazer. Faux leather leggings with no pockets look great layered and under tighter knits, so there will be no bumps showing. You can also wear them with a menswear-style shirt or chunky knit for contrast.

She’s worn everything from leather jackets to dresses from her longtime favourite, including some that are still in stock, like the Roanoke Shirt Dress in the Netflix series Harry & Meghan and her gorgeous Beacon Dickey jacket.

She has her blue Veronica Beard shirt dress on repeat, wearing it on the Royal Tour in Tonga, and also for a visit to Cape Town.

And her classic nautical Veronica Beard ‘Adley’ trousers, which she rocked with a Burberry tartan coat and Strathberry bag for very first official trip to Scotland alongside Prince Harry.

Royal cousin Princess Eugenie also loves the Veronica Beard, and was spotted wearing a pretty floral dress by the label for a video chat about The Anti-Slavery Collective, an initiative that she co-founded with best friend Julia de Boinville in 2017.
