I hope your Labor Day weekend included joyful moments and opportunities for rest. I got a chance to binge watch most of Season 2 of Meghan Markle’s (Sussex) Netflix show With Love, Meghan. If you haven’t seen it, it’s a gorgeous lifestyle show filled with cooking and hosting tips, and inspiration for slow hobbies. Meghan’s style is a masterclass in elevated casual looks, and we covered fashion and jewelry finds from Season 1. Many of the items that she wore during the first season sold out quickly, so I was excited to see her season 2 looks. Season 2 features more of her elevated casual style, but with a transitional twist- more luxe knits and layered looks that are perfect for pre-fall or fall dressing. Here are five of my favorite looks from the new season, as well as similar pieces for less.
Meghan paired a striped button down from the Los Angeles based brand Co with The Stir Jeans by AYR and her Logan Hollowell tennis necklace. Later for a scene on the beach she added the Anine Bing Dylan coat and an Hermes scarf. She also wore the Anine Bing Luca Jacket in another scene.
This striped button down from Express is similar and currently on sale. The Madewell Stovepipe jeans are a classic wardrobe addition. The Wisteria tennis necklace by Avaria is also on sale and under $100.
The Quince Italian Wool Coat and Ann Taylor Paisley Silk Scarf are great layering options for a classic look.
Meghan elevated a simple jean and tee combo by pairing the Ayr Stir Jeans in white with a Bleusalt Perfect T, a CO Wrap Coat, a Chanel bag and Chanel flats.
This COS tshirt is another elevated option and can be paired with these J.Crew slim straight jeans for a monochrome look. This double breasted coat by Bernando is a similar shade of taupe and is currently on sale.
This Carolina Herrera shirtdress is no longer available, but it looked lovely paired with the Saint Laurent Tribute Sandals, simple stud earrings, and Meghan’s signature arm stack.
The Zara ZW Collection Striped Shirt Dress, The Tobie Shirt Dress by Exquise at Anthropologie, and the J.Crew Cerise Shirt Dress are all timeless options for less.
The deep purple hue of this Cashmere Knit Sweatshirt by Another Tomorrow complements the lighter lavender shade of the Anine Bing Carrie pants (no longer available). Mixing shades in the same color family looks modern and sophisticated. Meghan also wore the Natalie Marie Sun Studs for this look.
You can achieve a similar look with Naadam’s cashmere sweater, modern wide leg trousers by Ann Taylor, and these tiny diamond climber earrings.
The Heidi Merrick JJ Linen shirt looks vibrant and perfectly oversized, and it pairs effortlessly with the AYR Stir Jeans. The color of this shirt is no longer available but it is available in four other colors.
The Jo Shirt by Alex Mill comes in a similar bold hue that transitions well from summer to fall. The Gap 90s Slim Straight jeans are a classic option under $100.
Each look in season 2 highlights Meghan Markle’s unique blend of sophistication and comfort. If you’re looking for inspiration to channel relaxed elegance, it’s a must-watch. If you’ve seen the show we’d love to know your thoughts about it. And let me me know if there are any other outfits or jewelry items you’d like me to track down.
