Meghan Markle Loved the Midi Skirt in Colombia—A Perfect Fall Denim Swap

Anyone else still thinking about Meghan Markle’s sartorial excellence during her whirlwind tour of Colombia with Prince Harry this past week? I certainly am. When I consider the range of attire she showcased—elevating beloved brands like Veronica Beard to highlighting Colombian designers such as Johanna Ortiz—there’s one style choice I’m most intrigued by: the way she paired multiple midi skirts, like the Emma Pencil Skirt from Posse ($250), instead of the more predictable choice of wearing jeans.

Think of it this way: Meghan wore not one, not two, not three, but a whopping four different midi skirts during this four-day trip to meet with Colombia’s Vice President Francia Márquez and, alongside Harry, promote their recent efforts to create digital safeguards online for kids. She dazzled in a sequined number by Colombian designer Silvia Tcherassi, complemented by a sleeveless cotton shirt from Mango ($46). Another notable look included a green chintz patterned midi skirt from Colombian designer Juan de Dios, paired with a Giuliva Heritage ‘Husband’ button-down shirt ($988). Two additional midi styles, the aforementioned design from Posse and another from Juan de Dios, were also worn and equally stunning.

What stood out for me was how Meghan’s tops—from a basic T-shirt to a shell from Argent ($145)—could just as easily have been paired with jeans. But by choosing midi skirts instead, she added something extra to her outfits, not to mention a sense of professionalism and polish perfect for the fall season.

So, how can you mirror her style? Start by selecting a classic neutral shirt from your closet. Then, the fun part—finding a chic midi to pair with it. Here are a range of fall-ready options to try:

Meghan paired this exact midi skirt from Posse with a white shell from Argent—both are still in stock. It’s priced at $250 and offers a sleek, timeless look suitable for various occasions.

Although not the same as Meghan’s Silvia Tcherassi number, a similar sequin skirt from Sézane ($175) can deliver the same eye-catching appeal.

For a piece reminiscent of Meghan’s Juan de Dios midi, consider a visually intriguing skirt from Veronica Beard. Priced at $398, it promises to be a lovely addition to your fall wardrobe.

Going back to Meghan and her captivating midi skirts, perhaps the secret of her success lies in the rule of thirds. However, it might also be about making such a simple yet effective style upgrade. Yes, denim is still a perfect match for a crisp white top like a button-down, but adding a new silhouette like a midi skirt is, quite frankly, interesting. It’s a top addition I’ll be making to my closet this season.
