Meghan Markle opted for a decidedly casual look as she checked in at LAX Airport in Los Angeles for her flight to London on Monday evening – but still managed to sport some serious couture.
As the Duchess of Sussex prepared to board a long haul flight to London to reunite with Prince Harry ahead of the Invictus Games in Germany, the Duchess plumped for $773 Ulla Johnson sailor-style Polina wide-legged trousers with a matching navy V-neck jumper.
It was the accessories that stole the sartorial show in this particular ensemble however, with Meghan, 42, carrying a $2,650 Goyard tote bag, in which a designer scarf, believed to from Hermes, was draped.
On her wrist, Meghan sported a Cartier yellow gold Tank Francaise watch, worth a cool $26,000.
And perched on the Duchess’ head was a pair of oversized $500 ‘shiny black’ Triomphe Celine sunglasses, and, should the sun shine on the Invictus Games stadium in Düsseldorf, a stylish Janessa Leone ‘Michon’ Hat In Bleach hat, which retails at $267.

Flats were the order of the day, and the mother-of-two, who travelled with aides to the California airport donned a favoured pair of $770 Valentino mules in ivory.
Markle looked delighted as she jetted out of the US to join her husband – but despite landing in London today she will not be stopping in Britain for long, MailOnline can exclusively reveal.
The Duchess of Sussex boarded a plane from LAX to Heathrow last night accompanied by a single body guard spotted carrying some of her bags and clothing.
It is her first transatlantic journey since flying to London for the Queen’s funeral last September. The trip to Germany means she will be with Harry for his 39th birthday on Friday.

The mother-of-two has left Archie and Lilibet at home and was swept into LAX in a white luxury BMW yesterday evening, hours after she was spotted behind the wheel of her $140,000 black Range Rover grabbing a burger from In-N-Out close to the Sussexes’ $14.6m Montecito home.
After arriving at the airport at just before 6pm, she grinned as she got out of her limousine.
Meghan is due to land in London this morning but is unlikely to stop for long in the British capital, where she lived for three years with her husband before Megxit in January 2020.
She is likely to jump straight on to a BA flight to Dusseldorf this afternoon where her husband is attending every day of the Invictus Games, which ends on Saturday.
She will be whisked from the airport to the five star Hyatt Hotel where Harry is ensconced in the Presidential suite.

Her absence from the start of the event ‘helps’ him, it was claimed today.
Speaking on GB News broadcaster Eamonn Holmes said that Harry going solo shows the world his personality.
He said: ‘He knows what he’s talking about, he’s very credible and does it very well. And she’s [Meghan Markle] not there. All of which helps.’
