The Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s recent four-day tour of Colombia, that concluded on August 18, has generated a lot of talk – it was billed by press as a ‘DIY royal tour’ before it even began.
But there’s no denying that the four-day whirlwind was well-spent, as the couple went about some important cultural and charitable endeavours while visiting the South American country. Meghan Markle went out to meet with organisation heads, politicians and schoolchildren, all while giving a masterclass in tonal, seasonal, and chic dressing.
The entire four days of ‘tourdrobe’ outfits were notable. Markle exhibited her usual sleek style – when visiting a traditional music school, she donned a patterned black top and flowing maxi skirt co-ord by Johanna Oritz, and accessorised with Ray-Ban aviators, tan Aquazzura sandals, a woven cross-body bag, and Cartier jewellery. Another look, when touring a historic village, saw Meghan dress in an all-white, monochromatic outfit – a knit sleeveless tank, with a linen maxi skirt, and black thong sandals. She topped it with a straw white hat by a local designer, Hannia Char.
But there was one look that was a particular standout. Namely, on the second day of the tour, when Markle accessorised her camel-coloured blazer and accompanying Chanel ballet flats with crystal butterfly earrings – that once belonged to Princess Diana.

This isn’t the first time we’ve seen Meghan wear her late mother-in-law’s jewels. At hers and Harry’s 2018 wedding reception, she was pictured wearing Diana’s large aquamarine ring. In their engagement interview, Harry discussed how Meghan’s engagement ring linked back to his mother.
‘The ring is yellow gold because that’s [Meghan’s] favourite. The main stone itself I sourced from Botswana and the little diamonds on the side are from my mother’s jewellery collection, to make sure she’s with us on this crazy journey together,’ he said.
