Meghan Markle has officially touched down in Melbourne to kick off her non-royal tour of Australia with Prince Harry, and she’s already inspiring fashion wishlists

Despite only being a few days into the trip, Meghan has been delivering look after impeccable look, wearing gorgeous dresses, skirts and sets by various Australian designers.

But behind every carefully chosen outfit is  a price tag that puts most of the pieces firmly out of reach for the average admirer. 

But here’s the thing: the look itself is absolutely achievable. Whether it’s the lines of her tailoring, the femininity of her dresses, or the elegance of her style, Meghan’s Australian tour aesthetic is less about the exact labels and more about the principles behind them. 

And high street and online retailers have been delivering on those principles for a fraction of the cost.
