The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree – er, orchard.
We haven’t gotten enough of Meghan Markle’s new lifestyle brand American Riviera Orchard (it’s set to launch later this year), but we’re getting to see plenty of looks during her visit to Colombia. Two of them, a blazer outfit and a maxi dress moment, just included a $750 Cesta Collective crossbody bag, the handbag style that’s been appealing to everyone from Taylor Swift to Jennifer Aniston to Oprah.
Although she has previously carried a tote and a clutch from the brand, it’s no surprise that this time she opted for a hands-free model: this way she could socialize without all the hassle that a heavier model would entail.

Shoulder bags inspired by Meghan Markle
Kate Spade – Monica – Small Flap Crossbody Bag
One shopping tip we swear by? Head to outlet websites. That’s where you’ll find things like this Kate Spade Monica Mini Flap Crossbody. Although it costs $89, it’s actually worth a lot more because of its “soft” leather material. One shopper also said that “the quality is exquisite,” adding, “If you double up on the strap, you can turn it into a crossbody bag for nights out on the town.”
Urban Originals – Unity – Shoulder Bag
With scalloped edges, studs and floral embroidery, this crossbody bag from Nordstrom Rack is a real style charm. The shape is also a bit saddle-like, a silhouette Jennifer Garner just tried out, and it even matches Markle’s hues. And even though Labor Day is a week away, don’t be so quick to rid your closet of whites, creams and beiges—wearing white in the colder months is not off limits.
Sunwel – Vegan suede shoulder bag with fringes
Need more space but don’t want to deal with the disorganized mess of a large bag? Something like this $26 option offers a little more room than Kate Hudson’s roomier crossbody bag, but isn’t so big that its heavy contents will cause back or shoulder pain. Plus, it’s made from a beautiful faux suede that will add warm and cozy fall vibes to your wardrobe.
