In case you missed it, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle made their big UK return yesterday, attending the Endeavour Fund Awards, which Harry founded.
This marks the first time the royal couple have made a public appearance together since moving to Canada and renouncing their titles and official duties.
As is often custom for women of the royal family, Meghan chose to support a local designer, one which she has worn before: Victoria Beckham.
The Duchess of Sussex added a much needed pop of colour to an otherwise rainy and miserable evening, thanks to a turquoise blue tailored pencil dress.
She accessorised with her trusted Manolo Blahnik heels and a clutch bag by Stella McCartney.
Whether intentionally or not, Prince Harry matched his wife's outfit with a royal blue suit and light-coloured tie.

Penny grew up in France and studied languages and law at the Sorbonne Nouvelle University in Paris before moving to the UK for her MA in multimedia journalism at Bournemouth University. She moved to the UK permanently and has never looked back (though she does go back regularly to stock up on cheese and wine).
Although she's always loved fashion - she used to create scrapbooks of her favourite trends and looks, including Sienna Miller and Kate Moss' boho phase - her first job was at MoneySavingExpert.com, sourcing the best deals for everything from restaurants to designer sales.
However she quit after two years to follow her true passion, fashion journalism, and after many years of internships and freelance stints at magazines including Red, Cosmopolitan, Stylist and Good Housekeeping, landed her dream job as the Digital Fashion Editor at Marie Claire UK.
Her favourite part of the job is discovering new brands and meeting designers, and travelling the world to attend events and fashion shows. Seeing her first Chanel runway IRL at Paris Fashion Week was a true pinch-me moment.
