Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton: The Battle of the Shoes
The fashion choices of the Duchesses of Cambridge and Sussex are always under scrutiny, and their latest appearance at the Commonwealth Day service on Monday was no exception.
However, this time the focus was not on their outfits but on their shoes.
According to the latest news, Meghan Markle has been accused of stealing Kate Middleton's most expensive shoes.
The rumor mill has gone into overdrive after pictures emerged on TV showing Meghan wearing a pair of navy suede heels that looked almost identical to Kate's.
The only difference was that Meghan's shoes had her trademark stiletto heel, while Kate's had a slightly thicker heel.
Kate appeared to be recycling her trusty pair of Mallory pumps by Rupert's Anderson, which she wore in February 2016 when she attended a church service to mark the 75th anniversary of the Royal Air Force cadets.
Trending:
The heels are a signature pump of the Rupert's Anderson collection and come in a range of colors and fabrics.
They feature a 100mm heel height and classic pointed toe.
On the other hand, Meghan wore the navy BB pumps by Manolo Blahnik, which retail online for £450.
The brand's signature style is named after French movie star Brigitte Bardot and features a pointed toe and a thin 100mm heel.
Meghan looked typically stylish for her outing at Westminster Abbey, which was her first official engagement with the Queen.
Apart from the shoe controversy, both Duchesses looked stunning in their outfits.
Meghan opted for a navy dress and a £895 white coat by Amanda Wakeley.
She wore her sleek and straight brunette locks under a dazzling white hat by Stephen Jones.
Kate, meanwhile, dressed her baby bump in a beautiful navy dress by Beulah London and a navy hat by Lock & Co.
This is not the first time that Kate and Meghan have shown a similar taste in fashion.
The American actress has previously stepped out in the same designers as her future sister-in-law, most notably Burberry, Ralph Lauren, Amanda Wakeley, and Mark St. Spencer.
However, not everyone is happy with Meghan and Harry's move to Windsor.
A pro-monarchy journalist has accused Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's biographer, Omid Scobie, of whipping up anger against Prince William and his wife Kate Middleton.
The author of Finding Freedom was criticized by Richard Eden after he wrote an article for UK.style.yahoo.com.
Scobie wrote, “Despite spending over $5.40 on turning Kensington Palace into a forever home, the Cambridges are leaving London this month for a new property in Windsor.
Was it all a waste of sovereign grant funding?”
