Meghan Markle on tour in Australia: What the Duchess of Sussex wore Day 4

MEGHAN Markle donned a $2,000 dress to politely watch some contemporary dance at a girls’ school in Sydney.

USUALLY when someone puts a lei around your neck, you are two Mai Tais in on holiday and you just giggle your way through it.

But it happened to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle this morning and they were stone cold sober.

They’re actually handling it quite well.

Because she handled one so well, someone decided to put another 15 on her to really hammer the point home.

The Duchess and Duke of Sussex are embarking on day four of their Australian tour, after traipsing around Melbourne yesterday picking up rubbish and handballing footballs.

Their first official duty today is something called “Fluoro Friday” — an initiative from One Wave, the surfing community’s mental health and wellbeing awareness group.

Meghan clearly didn’t get the fluoro memo and stepped out onto the sand in a striped dress in neutral tones by Australian designer Martin Grant — the same chap who made the beige trench coat that she has worn most days of the tour so far.

The dress retails for $1615 and you guessed it! Websites are stating that it’s no longer available.

The Moda Operandi website states the Martin Grant dress is no longer available.

The pair ditched their shoes to sit with a group who shared their experiences with mental health issue. There was also some surfing and yoga going on.

‘Look, surfing and yoga!’

The shoes Meghan (briefly) wore today were the Castañer “carina” canvas wedge espadrilles ($135).

Wedges on stairs. Thank goodness she has that iron-grip on Harry.

That moment when you’re so thrilled you sprung for a pedi.

The carina canvas wedge espadrilles are sold on the net-a-porter website.

At lunchtime Meghan and Harry went to Macarthur Girls’ High School to politely watch some contemporary dance.

Everyone has their best contemporary dance watching face on.

The Duchess had a costume change from her beach outfit and opted for the eyewateringly expensive Roksanda ‘Athena’ dress ($2,080).

Meghan went full high school chic with her hair, sporting the half up-do and strands at the front.

This is exactly what it looked like when the mean girls were talking about you at school.

The Roksanda dress is available on net-a-porter.

She got those guns from doing yoga at 4.30am this morning. True story.
