Hey there, friends! Let’s talk about Meghan Markle. Now that she's the Duchess of Sussex, we're all accustomed to seeing her in those elegant, calf-length dresses paired with chic fascinators. But guess what? When Prince Harry’s stunning wife touched down in New York City for a solo trip this week for her two-day baby shower, we started to see the 37-year-old Hollywood actress we once adored, shining through her high-fashion choices in the Big Apple.
Now, don't get me wrong—we absolutely adore royal Meghan. But there’s something undeniably special about spotting the seven-months-pregnant duchess strutting around in a pair of skinny jeans, a dazzling swing coat, and a pair of dark sunglasses. It feels like we've traveled back to 2016! If it weren’t for the royal protection officers and the swarm of photographers following her around NYC, Meghan might just blend in with the other stylish ladies making their mark in the City That Never Sleeps.

Meghan’s First Day in NYC: Black Coat and Maternity Jeans
On the first afternoon of her special two-day shower held at The Mark Hotel on Tuesday, February 19, Meghan stepped out in a striking black coat with cropped sleeves, paired with black Hatch Maternity skinny jeans, nude suede pumps, and an oversized Carolina Herrera Matryoshka Locked L Shoulder Bag. This particular purse would have been far too large for her to carry during an official royal outing, making her NYC style feel refreshingly casual and personal.

Meghan's NYC Adventure: Museums, Five-Star Dining, and Precious Moments
During her brief but exciting visit to the States this week, Meghan explored museums, dined in five-star restaurants, and soaked in the vibrant energy of the Big Apple. Beyond attending her much-publicized baby shower, hosted by her closest friends, the former Suits star also took some well-deserved private time to connect with the people who matter most to her.
"The trip is a lovely chance to catch up with friends and spend time in a city she loves," a source close to the royal told Harper’s Bazaar. "This will be the last time a lot of them will see Meg until after the baby is born, so it’s wonderful to share these precious moments."
