Meghan’s Effortless Style for a Lunch Date in Montecito

November 14, 2023 by Susan Courter 4 Comments

**Scroll for Updates 11/21

On November 10th, Meghan was spotted out to lunch with her friend, Kelly McKee Zajfen (co-founder of Alliance of Moms), in the picturesque town of Montecito, and as always, her fashion choices did not disappoint. Known for her impeccable style, Meghan effortlessly combined comfort and chic in a well-curated ensemble that caught the eye of fashion enthusiasts.

The Duchess also appeared to have done a bit of shopping as she was carrying a bag from Wendy Foster, a boutique in Montecito that carries a number of brands of which Meghan favors.

Meghan showcased a perfect blend of sophistication and laid-back elegance during her Montecito outing. Sporting a Cesta Collective tote (link below), the duchess demonstrated her support for sustainable and ethically crafted fashion. The tote, known for its timeless design and eco-friendly materials, complemented Meghan’s commitment to making mindful choices.

Her attire also included La Ligne shorts (link below), a brand recognized for its classic and comfortable designs. The choice of shorts highlighted Meghan’s ability to seamlessly integrate casual pieces into a polished look, showcasing her fashion versatility.

The Duchess elevated her ensemble with carefully selected accessories. Her Givenchy belt not only added a touch of glamour but also accentuated her waist, creating a flattering silhouette. Celine sunglasses shielded her eyes with style, proving that even a casual lunch outing is an opportunity to showcase high-end fashion.

UPDATE 11/15: Upon closer look at Meghan’s Celine sunglasses – we’ve updated the link and photos below. They are the Celine Triomphe CL 40222 F 01A Square Sunglasses (first worn just before leaving for Germany in September) Apologies for the confusion!

Her belt is the Givenchy ‘Double-G’ belt (past season). She first wore the belt in June 2018 while visiting Cheshire with the Queen.

Keeping comfort in mind, Meghan opted for her Aquazzura flats, a brand celebrated for its luxurious yet comfortable shoes. The flats provided the perfect finishing touch to her ensemble. She first wore the flats during the Invictus Games in September of this year.

Aquazzura ‘Love Affair’ flat in black suede, $795.

UPDATE 11/21: Meghan’s top is from Bleusalt. The brand confirmed with us today that she is wearing their Classic Crew in black, $132.

Meghan’s poppy pin appears to be a red enamel with a gold or crystal center adorned with a gold or crystal leaf. We’ve found a few brooches that are similar, however not an exact match. Note: The photo on the right show the style of the brooch.

Her other jewelry are her staples pieces — Cartier Tank watch, Cartier ‘Love’ bracelet, her Lorraine Schwartz emerald cut pink ring and small earrings which are difficult to see.

If you are looking for a more affordable pair of shorts to get Meghan’s look try these options — Target, $25 – link here / Madewell, $20 / Gap, $18 (Now $8.99)

    I really like the shorts with the sweater. It looks effortless and chic. I looked at the actual pics on another website, so that I could see what her clothes really looked like. Meghan knows how to put the best casual outfits together. Although I enjoy seeing what she wears to public events, it’s her off duty style that I really like to see.

      I wore a similar outfit while on vacation over the summer. I have a black J. Crew sweater that looks identical and wore it with camel color shorts. It’s a great look and easy to create! – Susan
