Although she's spent a fair amount of time in the UK, the States has always been Meghan Markle's stomping ground. The Duchess of Sussex is a California girl through and through, yet that didn't stop her from hopping across to the East Coast for the hottest events in town.

For the scintillating occasion, the actress dressed up in a black crop top with scalloped bandage-style detailing, short sleeves, a round neckline and a lettuce hem, that was paired with a knee-length pencil skirt and strappy heels.
