If there is one person&#8217;s shoe closet that I&#8217;d die to see, it&#8217;s the Duchess of Sussex&#8217;s. Be it boots, flats, sneakers, or heels, Meghan always has on an interesting pair of shoes that easily transforms a relatively simple ensemble into a striking &#8216;fit. It&#8217;s a simple way to jazz up what could become a boring outfit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To wrap it up, there is an alternative flair to Meghan&#8217;s dress sense that shows through the traditionally feminine and sometimes ancestral garb that other women in the BRF and wider royal sphere didn&#8217;t have until she came onto the scene. She is truly a trendsetter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Something I have always noticed and admired about Meghan&#8217;s style is the hint of edge and non-conformity it has to it.
