There's a Special Reason Meghan Markle Chose to Wear This Coat on Commonwealth Day

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle began Monday's Commonwealth Day celebrations with a visit to Canada House in London. As the president and vice president of the Queen's Commonwealth Trust, the day is special to the couple, and this year, their focus will be on celebrating Canadians living in the UK.

Meghan, who will soon pause her royal duties and go on maternity leave ahead of the birth of the couple's first child, arrived in London's Trafalgar Square wearing a gorgeous green coat with black beaded embellishment by Erdem. The color was a suitably festive choice, given that it's also St. Patrick's Day later in the week, but there was a deeper significance to this specific choice: though Erdem is a London-based label, designer Erdem Moralioglu was actually born in Montreal, Canada. The coat really did tell the story of Meghan's day.

The coat was adapted from a design shown at London Fashion Week in February, with slightly fewer embellishments and a more 1960s-inspired swing shape. The duchess teamed it with a pair of black Aquazzura pumps and a small black box clutch. Take a closer look for yourself ahead, and see the coat as it was shown on the runway, too.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans .

Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
