The label, which retails everything from shoes to swimwear, jeans and dresses, was founded in 2010 by a small group of creatives in Paris, Stockholm and Los Angeles.

The only problem is that while it may be affordable, you can’t actually get it shipped to Australia.

Tying her hair in a ponytail, Meghan was quick to step off the plane and into an awaiting car as she arrived at Hervey Bay airport with her husband Prince Harry.

She paired the mid-legth dress with a pair of Sarah Flint sandals, which retail for AU$345. The simple brown sandals, which feature a 10mm flat soul, vanchetta upper and full leather soul. The designer has quickly become one of Meghan’s go to brands, having worn the label on multiple occassions.
