Meghan Markle Knows the 2 Pieces You Need to Dress Up Skinny Jeans
Raise your hand if you can't wait for the arrival of the newest royal baby. Yep, that's about everyone. While we can't wait to see the new addition to the family, we're quite content reveling in Meghan Markle's stellar maternity outfits. Her looks have been a mix of tried-and-true staples and some fun curveballs, and her newest outfit happens to fall into the former category.
Making a surprise appearance on stage at WE Day UK, which celebrates young leaders, Markle dressed up jeans with the two staples everyone should own: a navy blazer and pointy-toe pumps. The additions make her basic skinny jeans and tank top look polished and professional with no effort at all. While Markle's shoes are by celebrity-beloved brand Manolo Blahnik, we found worthy alternatives at a more affordable price point. Scroll down to see how Markle dressed up skinny jeans and shop the look.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 14 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2015, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Kate and Meghan stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible.
