Earlier this week, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry stepped out for a rare public appearance in Los Angeles. As always, people were quick to take note of the Duchess of Sussex's fashion choices. Unlike usual, however, some eyebrows raised. Not because Meghan wasn't stylish (she was, in a super-cute J.Crew coat that's still in stock FWIW), but because she and Harry almost seemed to be dressed for completely different seasons. For reference, just in case you haven't seen the pics (which are available to view here, if you're interested), Harry was wearing a fairly thin, long-sleeved t-shirt for the outing, while Meghan's coat was verging on parka territory. The weather in the LA-area yesterday, if you're wondering, was pretty balmy, with a low of 57 degrees Fahrenheit and a high of 84 degrees.
There's nothing wrong, of course, with wanting to be cozy AF—especially jus days before Christmas—but the ~lewk~ definitely got us thinking about Meghan's previous bundled up outings and what the weather was like at the time. Here, in honor of Meghan's willful embrace of sweater weather season (regardless of the actual temperature on the thermometer), is a look back at some of her coziest, most bundled up looks of all time, along with what the weather was like when she was wearing them—because context is key.
