We'd love to walk around in Meghan Markle's shoes for a day. The duch*ess of Sussex has impeccable style, from her signature preppy aesthetic to her elegant maternity looks. Ever since she stepped onto the scene, Meghan has brought sophisticated flair to her footwear choices, opting for classic silhouettes that have been embellished and updated.
Of course, the Meghan has her go-to shoes, which have carried her through many appearances and special events (such as her multiple pairs of Aquazzura pumps), not to mention the smaller brands that she favors, including Sarah Flint. And who could forget the duch*ess of Sussex's penchant for sustainable footwear, as made evident by choice to wear Rothy's and Veja sneakers?
From casual flats to sky-high pumps to a pair of signature sandals, read on to shop Meghan Markle's signature shoe wardrobe.
Manolo Blahnik BB Pumps
Meghan began sporting her classic pair of Manolo BB Pumps during her engagement, and has worn them multiple times since, including her appearance at Princess Eugenie's wedding, for which she matched them to her Givenchy coat dress, at the Invictus Games in the Hague in 2022, and on her trip to Nigeria with Prince Harry in 2024 when she wore it with a royal-approved trend: the ivory suit.
Veja Esplar Low Sneaker
Markle also has a penchant for sustainable footwear brands, as was made evident when she rocked the Veja Esplar Low sneakers while visiting Sydney in October 2018, sparking a surge in interest in the shoe.
Aquazurra So Nude Sandals
Meghan is nothing if not brand-loyal, and she's clearly a major fan of Aquazurra. On her 2024 trip to Nigeria with Prince Harry, she donned a neutral pair of the brand's strappy sandals to accent several of her gowns, including the ruffled red dress she wore to a Women in Leadership event she co-hosted.

Jimmy Choo Romy Pumps
This is one style that Meghan has in common with her sister-in-law the Princess of Wales. The duch*ess of Sussex wore an oxblood velvet version of the stiletto while on a visit to Northern Ireland during the spring of 2018, and Kate Middleton has worn the nude pump a number of times, including to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding.
Emme Parsons Cecilia Sandals
While she's often seen in heels, Meghan also has impeccable taste in flats. Case in point: these pared-back black sandals that she wore at a training session for Nigeria: Unconquered that she and Harry observed while visiting the country in 2024.
Aquazzura Mathilde Pumps
An avowed Aquazurra fan, Meghan wore a pair of Aquazzura nude suede pumps with a criss-cross front for her engagement announcement with Prince Harry in November of 2017. In her pre-royal life, the shoes even appeared on Meghan's now defunct personal Instagram in OOTD posts. She brought them back out for a return appearance in January 2019, while pregnant with her first child.

Rothy's The Point Flats
When Meghan sported Rothy's sustainable flats (which are made of recycled plastic) while on an official visit to Australia in October 2018, it started an all out craze for the shoe.
She sported a similar style, Rothy's The Merino Point, woven from a blend of the brand's signature recycled plastic fiber and merino wool, in Canada on Valentine's Day 2020.
Sarah Flint Grear Sandal
Sarah Flint shoes have been a go-to for duch*ess of Sussex since long before she became a member of the royal family. She picked the functional and feminine Grear wrap sandal to wear during an official visit to Australia in October 2018.
Castaner Carina Wedge Espadrilles
For a warm-weather heel, Meghan has turned to these wedge espadrilles on a number of occasions, like during her 2019 tour of South Africa. (Her sister-in-law Kate Middleton is a fan of the summery style as well.)

Adidas Ultraboost Sneakers
Back in 2019, Meghan showed she was ahead of the curve on the sporty sneakers trend, opting for this pair of black and white Adidas for her NYC baby shower ahead of the birth of Prince Archie. The brand has since updated the style to make them even more comfy.
Aquazzura Deneuve Bow-Embellished Suede Pumps
Another go-to pair for the duch*ess of Sussex is her Aquazurra Deneuve pumps, which she owns in multiple shades. She wore them with an Oscar de la Renta gown on day eight of her official visit to Australia in October 2018. She also chose the pumps for Charlie van Straubenzee's wedding in August 2018.
Sarah Flint Jay Pump
Another Sarah Flint favorite for Markle is the suede Jay pump with a tortoise-shell heel. The four-inch pump first appeared on the duch*ess at Anzac Day services in 2018, but she resurrected the shoe both for her official visit to Australia, and for the launch of the Together cookbook in September 2018.
