This Instagram Star Re-creates Meghan Markle’s Best Looks...in a Size 12

We’re pretty obsessed with PureWow Coterie member and The 12ish Style fashion blogger Katie Sturino’s #SupersizeTheLook Instagram series. Here, she recreates celebrity style on a body that’s larger than a size two. Her latest target? Future royal Meghan Markle, whose outfits range from regal to cool-girl. Here, five of our favorite looks. Swoon over them, then check out Katie’s appearance on the recent episode of Royally Obsessed, the podcast for all things Meghan, Harry, Wills and Kate.

These 4 Beloved Fashion Brands Just Launched Plus Sizes


Robe Coat + Black Trousers + Black Pumps

Still unsure about wearing black with navy? These stylish ladies prove it can be done, and make the case for belting coats at the waist and pairing with slim-cut trousers, for perfect proportionality.

Get the look: Soia & Kyo coat ($325); Loft trousers ($65); Sam Edelman pumps ($120)

Black Turtleneck + Camel Skirt + High Boots

Speaking of super-flattering combinations, a slim-fit black turtleneck tucked into a high-waist midi skirt is a total no-brainer when it comes to smoothing out your shape and defining your waist. Markle favors neutral colors and stays away from prints, both of which are easy ways to make your clothes look more expensive.

Get the look: J.Crew turtleneck ($15); Vanessa Bruno skirt ($380); Stuart Weitzman boots ($655)

White Coat + White Beret + Navy Dress

OK, so this outfit might be a tad much for day-to-day affairs, but for fancier outings, a coordinated coat-and-hat set is refined and, quite frankly, regal.

Get the look: Eileen Fisher coat ($368); Don beret ($186); Ann Taylor dress ($119)

Floral Dress + Blazer + Pumps

The best way to dress down a cocktail dress? Toss a blazer on top. You get more bang for your buck (since you're wearing it way more often than you would on its own) and the femininity of the dress is perfectly balanced by the androgyny of the jacket. 

Get the look: Self-Portrait Dress ($405); Wayf blazer ($75); Margaux pumps ($245)

Camel Coat + Chambray Shirt + Skinny Jeans

We’re not sure how Queen Elizabeth-approved this look will be post-wedding, but we’re in love with it, FWIW. Dress up your denim-on-denim ensemble with a gorgeous camel coat and black flats or pumps, for an off-duty look that’s elegant yet effortless. Kinda like Meghan and Katie, if we’re being honest.

Get the look: AYR coat ($595); Rebel Wilson x Angels shirt ($53); Levi's jeans ($98)
