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.
