Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton Pay Tribute to Queen Elizabeth With Sparkling Jewelry

Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton's jewelry paid tribute to Queen Elizabeth II at the late monarch's London service on Wednesday, Sept. 14. Markle and Middleton joined Prince Harry and Prince William at Westminster Hall for the queen's funeral service following a procession of the queen's coffin from Buckingham Palace. As a tribute to Elizabeth, Markle and Middleton each accessorized their all-black ensembles with jewelry that has special ties to the queen.

Markle opted for a bespoke Givenchy black capelet sleeve coat, matching sheer tights, Paul Andrew pumps, a black veiled fascinator hat, black leather gloves, and a Loewe Postal bag. She also accessorized with her gold Cartier Love bracelet, her diamond wedding-ring stack, and a pair of pearl-and-diamond drop earrings originally gifted to her by Queen Elizabeth II during their first solo outing together in June 2018. The memorable trip took place less than one month after Markle married Prince Harry on May 19, 2018. Rarely seen without her pearls, the queen gave Markle a set similar to her own but smaller, and Markle immediately put them on to accessorize her cream Givenchy dress for the occasion. Four years later, Markle's decision to wear the earrings to the London service stands as a sartorial nod to their time together.

Middleton, meanwhile, delivered her own tribute to the queen in the form of a diamond-and-pearl leaf brooch, most famously worn by the queen over a yellow polka-dot dress in Seoul on April 21, 1999. The rarely seen accessory was a meaningful choice for Middleton, who was also spotted wearing the jewelry at the Passchendaele Commemorations in Belgium on July 31, 2017. At both events, Middleton wore a pair of pearl drop earrings previously owned by Princess Diana, making her outfit accoutrements a significant nod to both royals.

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 . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. 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...
