This year’s royal brides seem to already be sharing closets — or at least swapping style advice!
Princess Eugenietook a cue fromMeghan Markle’s royal lookbook while attending an event to mark the late Nelson Mandela’s 100th birthday in London on Wednesday night. The 28-year-old stunned in a green Osman dress (the same one she recently wore to Trooping the Color) with an asymmetrical cut and some very familiar strappy heels.
Turns out, the beige pointed-toe shoes areAquazzura’s Matilde crisscross suede 105mm pumps, the same ones Meghan chose for herengagement photocallalongsidePrince Harryin the Sunken Gardens of Kensington Palace.
The Duchess of Sussex is a longtime fan of Aquazzura, evenchosing the brand to wear at her royal wedding— Meghan chose a satin pair of the brand’s pumps complete with blue soles (possibly her something blue!) for hersecond wedding lookat the Frogmore House on the Windsor Estate. She paired the satin heels with a stunning white Stella McCartney gown andan aquamarine emerald-cut ring that belonged to the late Princess Diana.
