Classic yet modern, with simple, clean lines and a minimalist neutral palette. We could be talking about Meghan Markle's wardrobe but it’s also an apt description of her and Prince Harry’s home decor.
The royal couple has given us several peeks into their Montecito home, revealing more in their new bombshell Netflix documentary, Harry & Meghan, which premiered on Thursday.
We may not know for sure that Meghan is the mind behind the decor, but the house definitely has many of the same tasteful touches that were seen inside her former laid-back but sophisticated Toronto home.
And don’t think you need a royal budget to recreate the Duchess's homeware style - you can shop lookalike pieces for a lot less on Amazon. We’ve hunted for bargain homeware and furnishings that would look perfect inside the family’s beautiful Santa Barbara mansion and its gorgeous garden.

The key to copying Meghan and Harry’s abode? Keeping things fresh, airy and natural with linen, wood and glass accents, clean stripes, stylish coffee table books and a sense of calm… along with a bit of bohemian spirit (think macrame and aura-soothing crystals).
Meghan has previously given us peeks inside her home during her virtual engagements and meetings
Of course, make sure to pay attention to ALL the senses with scented candles and diffusers. Meghan’s favourites are by Diptyque, particularly the Baies scent. And of course, monochrome palettes feature highly, from striped decorative cushions to wall art. The result? A home fit for a Duchess!

Meghan Markle's garden style
While pregnant with baby Lilibeth, Meghan made a public appearance in the garden of her California home
The Duchess released her first children’s book, a heartfelt tale of father-child relationships, entitled The Bench, so she and Harry have one of their own in a rustic wood design. We love the bohemian decorative crochet pillows.

Meghan Markle's timeless home staples
Before meeting Harry, Meghan shared photos of her home in Toronto
It appears that Meghan is the main architect of the decor in her and Harry’s home as it has the same vibe as the Duchess’ former Toronto apartment.
Above is a photo Meghan shared on Instagram while living in Canada. It features a rustic table, a glass vase and a silver Tom Dixon ‘Royalty’ diffuser. Plus her must-haves, which we've also spotted in her California abode: coffee table books, black and white art and a Diptyque candle.
