Meghan Markle's style picks for her recent tour of Colombia have generated a wave of praise from the fashion press and fans, as the duchess debuted a number of chic new outfits.
Meghan and Prince Harry visited the Colombian cities of Bogotá, Cartagena and Cali at the invitation of the country's Vice President, Francia Márquez, from August 15 to 18, taking in a number of philanthropic engagements centered around Colombian culture and heritage, as well as online safety.
For each engagement on the couple's unofficial royal tour, Meghan created a stylish impact in outfits paying tribute to Colombian culture and designers.
Here, Newsweek takes a look at how Meghan styled her Colombian tour, look by look.
Day One—Conservative Chic
For her arrival in Colombia's capital city of Bogotá on August 15, Meghan opted for a striking coordinating two-piece look designed by American fashion brand Veronica Beard.
Worn for an official meeting with the vice president and her partner, the halterneck twist on a classic blazer updated a conservative suit silhouette into a look worthy of a modern-day royal.
Day One—Colombian Culture
Meghan changed her outfit for a visit to a showcase of Colombian culture and heritage later the same day, opting for a dress by one of her favorite designers, the Colombian-born, Johanna Ortiz.
Meghan has worn a number of Ortiz's designs in recent years, with her showcase look featuring a burgundy and gold print with strapped shoulders, keyhole bodice cutout and split skirt.
Day One—Classic Combination
Later that same day, Meghan and Harry attended the Summit on a Responsible Digital Future at the Universidad EAN. For the event, Meghan opted for a classic combination of a crepe blouse and wide-legged pant look which she has worn in a number of variations in recent years.
The design worn for the digital-future summit was based in warm-tone shades of rust brown.
Day Two—Paired-Down Style
Meghan began the second day of her Colombian tour with a visit to the Colegio La Giralda in the town of Santa Fe, Bogotá, where they met with students highlighting the importance of socio-emotional well-being in education.
For the occasion, Meghan opted for a paired-down look featuring a pair of black pants with a plain white blouse, layered with a double-breasted blazer in a brown linen-weave textile by Loro Piana.
DayTwo—Seeing Spots
The duke and duchess also met with members of Colombia's Invictus Games community during their second day in the country. Currently, Colombia is the only South American nation to send a regular delegation to the games founded by Harry to benefit the global veterans community.
For the event, Meghan wore a white blouse with a spotted print skirt designed by Colombian designer, Juan De Dios.
Day Three—Patterned Co-Ord
For Meghan's arrival in the city of Cartagena on the third day of her Colombian visit with Harry, she again wore an outfit designed by Johanna Ortiz.
The black strapped coordinating ensemble of a top and skirt featured a print depicting twisted and knotted rope.
Day Three—Monochrome Meghan
For the couple's visit to the town of San Basilio de Palenque, Meghan wore a white monochrome look with a knit blouse and mid-length skirt, accessorized with a wide-brimmed hat and aviator sunglasses.
Day Four—Stylish Separates
The fourth and final day of Harry and Meghan's visit to Colombia saw the couple attend events in the city of Cali.
Meghan participated in a special panel discussion titled Afro-Descendant Women and Power: Voice of Equity for which she wore a sleeveless white blouse with a printed skirt by designer, Silvia Tcherassi.
Day Four—Punchy Pattern
The couple's final engagement of their tour saw them attend the Petronio Music Festival in Cali with Vice President Francia Márquez.
For the event celebrating Colombian music culture, Meghan opted for a bold patterned dress made by Colombian fashion designer, Andrés Otalora.
