Meghan Markle appears to be like effortlessly stylish on Colombia go to
Meghan Markle showed off her effortlessly chic style as she and Prince Harry visited a school in the Santa Fe area of Bogota on Friday.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are currently on a ‘quasi-royal’ tour of Colombia, visiting a school with at least 16 armored police vehicles, as well as armed officers and soldiers in tow.
Meghan looked sophisticated in black high-waisted cigarettes pants, which she paired with a white button-up business shirt tucked in, leaving one button at the top undone.
She finished off the professional look with a designer dark camel colored blazer with large lapels and matching buttons, which she had cuffed lightly at the wrist.
The blazer, from Loro Piana, is a favorite of Meghan’s, retailing at $3,750 for the linen and wool blend piece.

The Duchess also looked to be wearing classic beige and black colored Chanel sling-back ballet flats, which retail for $1,100, and pulled her dark hair back into a sleek bun with a part down the middle.
She also carried a small beige handbag over her shoulder, with some simple gold jewelry on her wrist.
The Duchess, 43, added a special touch to her elegant look, donning her mother-in-law Princess Diana’s diamond butterfly earrings.
Meghan was previously seen wearing the blazer when she and Harry visited Nigeria in May for a photo with Derrick Cobinnah, President of Ghana Jamaica Chamber of Commerce and co-founder of Forces Help Ghana.
Prince Harry, 39, and Meghan’s security in Colombia also includes an officer armed with a Kevlar shield to stop any potential shooter taking aim at the couple.
At each event the couple have attended the man – part of the local security detail – has been seen jumping out of a vehicle ahead of the couple holding the folding shield.
The visit to the school, which is overlooked by rundown apartment blocks and several rundown favelas which cling to the nearby hillsides, comes despite Harry’s raising concerns over his security arrangements when visiting the UK.
After being greeted by the school’s headmaster Serafin Ordoñez, the Duke and Duchess, along with the country’s Vice President Francia Marquez, took part in a brief tour.
It saw the couple observe an art session, visit a kindergarten class and get their hands dirty by helping the young students plant trees in the school’s garden.

Later in the day the couple will have a private lunch with vice president Francia Marquez before meeting with members of Colombia’s Invictus Games squad, who are gearing up for the 2025 games in Whistler, Canada.
After being greeted by the school’s headmaster Serafin Ordóñez, the Duke and Duchess along with the Vice President participated in a brief tour of the school including participating in an art session, visiting a kindergarten class, and also joining in on planting trees on the school’s property.
Meghan helped a five-year-old pupil called Manuela plant a walnut tree while Harry helped out with a guayacan tree – a plant native to South America.
The entire school prepared special moments for the Duke and Duchess’s arrival, including performances all throughout the grounds where students wore traditional Colombian dress and performed songs along with live music.
Pupils also presented presents for Harry and Meghan’s children Archie, five, and Lilibet, three, including Colombian style ponchos, as well as personal letters and drawings.
