The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have arrived at the Sentebale charity fundraising polo match in Berkshire.

Hosted by Prince Harry, the sporting event is designed to help raise funds for children in Africa living with HIV and Aids.

The polo match is in partnership with Sentebale – a charity organisation the 33-year-old co-founded with Prince Seeiso back in November 2015.

The royal was inspired to set up the now-famous organisation after visiting Africa during his gap year in 2004.

A full breakdown of Meghan’s look:

For the Duchess of Sussex’s first appearance in support of her husband’s charity organisation, the former actress gave the nation a lesson in tackling the British heatwave.

With temperatures in Windsor today reaching 33C, Meghan played it cool in a navy, denim midi dress with a V-neckline and a loose-fitting skirt.

But don’t be fooled by the laid back silhouette, as the cap sleeve Carolina Herrera number from the 2019 Resort collection weighs in at a cool £2,357.

Meghan paired the dress with blush pink Aquazurra heels.

Eagle-eyed royal fans will also note that she has donned Aquazzura‘s £490 heels before (last time in black) to accessorise her Queen’s Young Leaders Awards Prada skirt suit.

To finish the daytime aesthetic, Meghan once again opted for her signature wispy low bun, a pair of topaz-hued earrings by Canadian jewellers, Birks and carried a £44 J Crew Fan Rattan clutch bag in her grasp.

But the question on everyone’s lips remains: did she borrow the accessory from Pippa Middleton who carried the must-have on one of her fashionable Wimbledon 2018 outings earlier this month?

In one final sartorial push, the royal newbie threw in a pair of Tom Ford sunnies for good measure – which can be yours for £358.17.

Prince Harry will play for the Sentebale St Regis team captained by the charity’s ambassador, Nacho Figueras, against the Royal Salute team which is captained by Malcolm Borwick.
