Meghan Markle Stomps Out in Nude Heels & Breaks a Royal Style Rule in NYC Ahead of Baby Shower

Meghan Markle made her return to the U.S. for a star-studded baby shower — and she’s continuing to show off her chic maternity style on the trip.

The Duchess of Sussex stepped out this afternoon for lunch in New York with “Suits” co-star Abigail Spencer clad in a sleek gray button-up coat paired with black skinny jeans.

While it is typically protocol for British royals to select clutches for handbags, Markle went against tradition with a nude tote bag that neatly matched her shoes.

The Northwestern University alumna completed her look with dark sunglasses and a pair of simple stud earrings.

The 37-year-old is expecting her first child with Prince Harry this spring. The pair were married last May in a celebrity-filled ceremony where the duchess wore a Givenchy gown.

Spencer, meanwhile, looked chic in a red floral-print maxi dress, which she wore underneath a black parka. With respect to shoes, the 37-year-old went with black Western boots that appeared to be suede.
