Meghan Markle's taste in fashion can be summed in two words: California cool. From her signature tonal color palette to her crisp white button downs and very many minimal wardrobe staples, the American royal has become synonymous with that effortless, laidback style often associated with the West Coast. So, it should come as no surprise that she favors a bunch of contemporary brands from California, such as Cuyana, Jenni Kayne, Frank & Eileen, and Bleusalt.

Being that rollout of her new California-based lifestyle brand, America Riviera Orchard, has officially begun, we took it upon ourselves to round up some of the West Coast-based fashion labels she's worn over the years. Here, shop 12 Meghan-worn pieces from her favorite California brands.
