We’re only halfway through 2025, but it’s already been a significant year for Meghan Markle. She’s returned to her blogging roots (remember The Tig?) through jam-making and baking, all while maintaining her signature Montecito style. After rejoining Instagram, her homemade goods company, American Riviera Orchard, rebranded as As Ever, and her Netflix show With Love, Meghan offered a glimpse into her sunny California lifestyle of outdoor entertaining.

Since leaving Kensington Palace, Meghan has traded royal-inspired outfits for a more relaxed East Coast vibe, with breezy linen shirts and straight-leg jeans becoming wardrobe staples. As she turns 44, let’s look at the key pieces that define her Montecito style.

### The Perfect Shirt
A crisp cotton shirt is essential in Meghan’s effortless wardrobe. She often wears relaxed button-downs paired with jeans or tailored trousers. Favorites include Reformation’s classic white shirts and J.Crew’s poplin styles.

J.Crew Étienne oversized shirt – $128
Eileen relaxed button-up shirt – $258

### Breezy Linen
Meghan’s wardrobe is full of lightweight, elegant linen pieces, from J.Crew’s wide-leg trousers to elevated Loro Piana designs. These are ideal for garden strolls or jam-making—though white might not be the best choice when handling berries.

Reformation Olina pants – $188
Faithfull Lison open-back midi dress – $420

### Jeans, Jeans, Jeans
Whether skinny, flared, or straight-leg, Meghan loves classic blue denim. She pairs them with crisp shirts or cozy knits, favoring styles like Veronica Beard’s skinny flares and Frame’s Alix jeans.
