Ah, Meghan. Our sustainable style queen. We’re updating this post with her latest looks as they happen – stay tuned for more from the royal couple and Archie’s 2019 tour of South Africa.
It’s hard enough packing for a holiday when you’re a normal person.
Seven black t-shirts should do it, right?
How about I pack these batik-print harem pants I’ve never worn in case I suddenly feel like it?
Where’s all my underwear?
We can only imagine how much the pressure intensifies when you’re Meghan Markle…on a royal tour with hubby and new baby in tow.
Last time we trailed Megs and Harry on holibobs (ok, their 2018 tour of Australia, New Zealand, Tonga and Fiji) we were a little distracted given the couple chose that trip to announce their pregnancy and full on Royal Bump Watch ensued.
But her excellent vacay capsule wardrobe came a close second in racking up column inches (and stacking up our shopping carts.) Indeed, no item of clothing sells out faster than a Markle-endorsed one.
And for the couple’s nine day tour of South Africa, Meghan is cleverly using the attention on her wardrobe to shine a light on ethical and fair trade fashion labels, and making sustainable style choices by upcycling her favourite pieces.
So without further ado… see the fashion plate’s latest looks below.
Day five
On day five of the tour, Meghan visited Victoria Yards in Johannesburg, which is a redeveloped site for artists and craftspeople.

Now we've got the two of them using their kid as a prop at a visit with Desmond Tutu. Cue the fawning articles about this being a great and progressive move in three, two, one...
