Time flies when you’re Meghan Markle. It’s hard to believe it’s been under two years since she and Prince Harry made their first public appearance as a couple in Toronto. Her whirlwind of a life has since seen an elaborate wedding that defied all expectations, a royal tour abroad, a highly publicized pregnancy, and the birth of her first child.
Through it all, the Duchess of Sussex has made headlines, time and time again, for her style – or shall we say breaking royal style rules? Today, in honor of her 38th birthday, Savoir Flair is taking a look back at what she wore for the most momentous occasions since meeting her prince – ripped jeans, top-to-toe monochrome, and lots and lots of Givenchy.
