Leave her alone. People are going to pick to poor girl apart now. As we seem as a "runner up" to the other one. She's a decent person with good intentions, let her be and let's stop criticising her for her choices.

I think that some people are determined to dislike her whatever she does. I am not a fan of the Royal family but I liked her in Suits and I always thought that she was an interesting person so I am not going to choose to dislike her now.
I think that she has done things which are more creditworthy than wearing something that lots of people wear but hopefully she will wear British designers or manufacturers and boost the economy a bit.
I agree about not understanding people who copy what someone has very publically been seen wearing and I would be a little irritated if I had bought it the day before but it's their choice.

Do we really want to know from where the royal family obtain their garments? Then as it appears a 'must have one of those' as far as so many of the public are concerned.

I agree with Trisher , how can anyone see the jumper worn under a coat.

When I was a child my mum bought me a beautiful blue coat, with a scalloped hemline. A few days later Princess Ann was pictured wearing the same coat. To say my mum was happy is an understatement!

She's Harry's fiance, soon to be his wife. Whatever you think of the R.F why do you you always have to be derogatory Paddyann?

I don’t think she decided to wear M n S. I’m sure that given a choice she never would. Let’s not fall once again for all the hype that surrounded Diana. Markle was obviously told she has to wear British and less expensive clothes. She has simply taken on a different role.

How can they tell which jumper she is wearing? The photo shows she has her jumper tucked into a flashy belt, so is it really M&S? And who else would wear it like that? Bit of good PR work there.

That'll be it glammanana.grin The royal family are copying us in their choice of 'dual heritage' DiL with Dutch and Ulster heritage, as all those apply to our family. Never been so on trend in my life.

Nonnie Maybe she is the copycat and loved your sense of style.

Nonnie Sat 13-Jan-18 16:31:29

I have stopped using a handbag because it looks like one she had which sold out straight away! No problem with her at all just don't want to look like a copycat!

paddyann Sat 13-Jan-18 16:27:42

as I've never bought anything because I've seen it on a celebrity than it doesn't affect me .I dont understand the mindset that thinks because Harry's latest squeeze wears it, s its worth buying.Sheeple ..methinks

Well done to her on finding the one decent piece of clothing in M&S! Maybe they could consult her on new designs!

glammanana Sat 13-Jan-18 16:06:59

She has certainly had the desired effect Maw as the jumper is sold out across all the stores,the same thing happened with the coat from the Canadian Designer they have been flooded with requests for it,if she helps the fashion industry well done her I say.

Lots of “o’s” in boosting! blush

After the outcry about Meghan Markle’s eye wateringly expensive engagement picture dress, her white dressing gown coat and her hat on Boxing Say, is nobody prepared to give her credit for booosting a British manufacturer and opting for a high street piece?
