She has opted for more muted tones of white and beige ever since she tied the knot with Prince Harry in May, as she adjusts to life as a member of the Royal family, but the Duchess of Sussex seems to have finally found her royal style as she injected a huge boost of colour into her wardrobe with this stunning summery frock.
Prince Harry’s new wife beamed with happiness as she stepped out alongside her husband to attend a youth Commonwealth event in London on Thursday.
The Duke and Duchess, who said ‘I do’ at St. George’s Chapel, Windsor, on May 19, were photographed hand-in-hand as they walked towards London’s Marlborough House, quietening recent debate about why the couple had stopped being so affectionate during official outings.
Meghan, who left behind her career as a Hollywood actress for life as a royal, looked incredible as she made the most of the British summertime in the bright mid-length Brandon Maxwell dress for the outdoor event.

The 36-year-old American kept her outfit simple yet classy, opting to wear no jewellery for the official engagement and pairing the sunshine-coloured frock with a pair of nude court shoes.
Meghan, who often wears her long dark locks hanging loose, wore her hair in a classic up-do, which was reminiscent of her wedding style, and kept her make up understated, showing off her natural beauty.

The official event marks the end of the Commonwealth Secretariat’s youth leadership workshop, which brings together newly-elected members of the Commonwealth Youth Council Executive and leaders of the Commonwealth Youth networks.
The workshop is intended to encourage youngsters, from nations such as Australia and Fiji, to think about their future and the roles they can play in society.
