Far from wearing closed toed court shoes and pumps on the regular, pre-royal Meghan Markle was fond of modern shoe styles like strappy heels, lace-up stilettos and plenty of casual flats that would be the envy of many dedicated fashionistas. She loved vacationing in fedoras, stripes and plenty of slip-on sandals.
As Meghan is now officially a duchess, she will likely stick to formal footwear but there is no doubt she will infuse her personality into her fashion ensembles with an added dose of cool girl. Indeed, Meghan loves quirky cat ballet flats, ballet slippers with bows and plenty of ankle-tie flats. She also favors soft fabrics like suede, shearling and velvet.
Here are a few of Meghan Markle’s favorite summer shoes:

The duchess loves her Sarah Flint ballet flats so much that she wore them on her first outing with Prince Harry. Clad in a casual button down called the Husband shirt and wearing Looker ankle fray jeans from Mother Denim, the style savvy Suits actress opted for flats called the Natalie with a feminine bow detail. The popular handcrafted and leather lined heels in the shade Saddle Vachetta are the perfect wear-with-anything casual shoe style.
