Meghan Markle has been in Nigeria for an official tour with Prince Harry, and her outfits have been filled with thoughtful fashion nods.

The tour began on May 10 with a visit to the Nigerian Defence headquarters in Abuja. Markle, 42, wore a white blazer, white flared trousers, and a plain tank top, creating a chic and elegant look.

Eagle-eyed fans were quick to notice that Meghan Markle was wearing the same blazer she wore during her first international tour as a working royal in 2018, right after she shared news of her pregnancy with Prince Archie.

During that tour, Markle paired the blazer with a dark Invictus Games shirt, black skinny jeans, sunglasses, and high heels.

The blazer in question is by Altuzarra, and it retails for $1,595.

During the tour, Markle also paid tribute to Archie in another way. She wore the same bright yellow Carolina Herrera dress at a reception in Lagos on Sunday, May 12, that she had worn on his first birthday in 2020.

Markle expressed her feelings of missing her children on Mother's Day during a speech at the Lagos State Governor's Office. She shares son Archie, 5, and daughter Lilibet, 2, with Harry, 39.

She acknowledged that it was Mother's Day in America and mentioned how she was missing her babies. Despite the distance from her children, she felt grateful to be in the motherland surrounded by family.

The couple's most recent visit to Nigeria ended on May 12, marking their first international tour since deciding to step back from royal duties in 2020. Similar to their previous tours, this trip was filled with various activities, each requiring a different outfit.

On Saturday, May 11, Meghan Markle paid tribute to Princess Diana by wearing her diamond cross necklace. The necklace was a gift from Harry. She wore it with a long strapless white dress, gold earrings, and matching gold bracelets.

Markle, who just found out she is 43 percent Nigerian, decided to pay tribute to her heritage by wearing a traditional Nigerian wrap skirt on Sunday, May 12. She received the skirt as a gift during her visit. Markle matched the stripey blue skirt with a white Carolina Herrera shirt and stylish gold heels.
