She's always perfectly in style, and Meghan Markle showed us once again how to make a trend your own when she rocked rich neutrals at a tastemakers panel in Montecito, California, last month. Her brown suit by Valentino, with a color-coordinating Reiss turtleneck, was monochrome dressing at its best. She's serving girlboss, but with a relaxed edge, since the jacket is generously cut and the pants have a wide leg. Since a Valentino suit probably isn't in the cards for us, we found similar, more affordable pieces, below.

Meghan Markle brown suit monochrome: Affordable brown women's pantsuit

The two-button jacket falls to mid-hip and the notched collar calls to mind the one that Meghan rocked.  In a  polyester/elastane fabric, the suit has a flattering medium weight, wide legs and a slightly padded shoulder. Perfect for a profesh look when worn together, the pieces also work great separately. The blazer classes up a pair of high-waist jeans, say, and the wide pants look sleek with a cropped sweater, blouse, or (really leaning in to the monochrome look) the Banana Republic Factory Timeless turtleneck ($40; $20).

We're Team Meghan when it comes to our fall palette, and suggest you too get down with the brown and more earth-toned separates below.
