Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden donned a Barbiecore-coloured Zara suit for an outing at the Nordic Museum in Stockholm on February 7, 2024.
Taking a leaf out of Kate Middleton's book, the future queen combined high-end and low-end items, wearing a Vesna W Stockholm silk white blouse underneath the two-piece and added a YSL handbag over her shoulder.
The crown princess also wore black boots, by royal favourite Gianvito Rossi, to complete the look.
After holding a posy of flowers while sitting in the front row during official speeches, Victoria then made her way on stage to cut the ribbon and officially open the Nordic Life exhibition - the museum's largest ever, showing life in Sweden and the Nordics for 500 years.
Meghan Markle was spotted in a toffee-coloured suit as she moderated a panel following the LA screening of a new Netflix documentary, directed by friend and photographer Misan Harriman (centre).
The Duchess of Sussex added a high-neck knit in a similar tone underneath to complete the monochromatic look.
The top appears to be a Massimo Dutti 'Plain Silk-Wool Sweater' worn during Meghan's royal life - specifically on an engagement to Canada House, just hours before Megxit was announced in January 2020 - but there is some debate among fashion bloggers about it, with a few not convinced Meghan would recycle that particular knit.
The image, also featuring British actor David Oyelowo (left), was taken inside the tastemaker event at a private residence in Montecito on November 15, 2023.
However it only came to light when shared by the photographer on Instagram on December 13.

For a meeting with Apple CEO Tim Cook, Kate opted for a navy pinstripe suit with gold hardware.
However, it was another detail of her outfit that stole the show on this particular occasion: her beige turtleneck jumper.
A number of royal fans made the same joke about Kate paying homage to the late Apple CEO Steve Jobs, whose personal uniform famously included black turtlenecks.
"It looks a little silly [in my opinion] with this suit, but maybe that's why?" one pondered of the decision to pair the turtleneck and suit.
"The turtleneck shirt reminded me of Steve Jobs. Maybe it's a nod to Apple," another suggested.?
