If you haven’t heard already, Meghan Markle— or Meghan Sussex as she would like to be called— set up a ShopMy account this week to share a “curated collection of the things [she] loves.” Say what you might about the duchess, but she knows there’s value in the affiliate links and sharing pieces from her closet… and I’ll be the first to admit I’ve always loved her pieces!
Meghan’s style is refined, it’s elegant, it’s classic. It’s definitely dressier than I go for on my day-to-day (and dressier than I ever needed for work), but maybe that’s some of the fun, right? It draws us in because it can be so fantastical and out of reach to look at the same $5,000 cashmere coat that a duchess or princess owns… but that’s the joy of secondhand. We can start to find those same (or very similar) pieces at much better price-points without sacrificing any of the quality.
It used to be much more common for magazines and fashion publications to share a celebrity’s outfits speckled to the side with pieces at various price points that could achieve the same look for less. With the prevalence and expansion of secondhand shopping with sites like Poshmark, TheRealReal, and Mercari, I believe that it’s easier than ever before to do that for ourselves if we find the inspiration— and Meghan has been #OutfitInspo for a long time, from her early days on Suits to her launch of As Ever.
I talked about inspiration a few weeks ago when I felt down-and-out about my place in the fashion world— talking about clothing and wanting to share beautiful things even though I felt like I didn’t have the bonafides to grant me access to what I wanted to talk about and share… but I think that’s the joy of seeing our favorite celebrities wear something new, right? We think, “Oh man, I’d love to own that blouse…” but we have one in a similar cut but maybe a different pattern or fabric tucked away at the back of our closet.
I’ve compiled a great (if I do say so myself) list of pieces that are perfectly Meghan-esque to give us all a little laid-back, California cool in our wardrobe. Maybe we’ll even make some jam~
~As you may know, buying secondhand can be great when you find something, but it won’t last if you don’t snatch it up! At the time of publication all of these pieces were available, but things may sell out… so don’t let something get away from you if you have your eye on it!~
