Meghan Markle looked the epitome of elegance in a draped one-shoulder caramel dress as she attended the Variety Power of Women Gala on Thursday – and we couldn't help but notice her affordable jewellery. 

The Duchess of Sussex has never been one to stray away from an inexpensive price tag, often styling her high-end pieces with reasonably priced jewellery. While her gorgeous Mejuri earrings and chunky gold ring look like they could match the cost of her $1,400 Proenza Schouler gown, her dazzling accessories retail at £98/$98.

The Duchess of Sussex nailed the quiet luxury trend with her drape dress

Meghan styled her designer dress with a pair of Aquazzura leather heels and a Proenza Schouler clutch bag, completing the timeless look with her Mejuri Chunky Huggie Hoops and statement Charlotte Bold Ring.

Meghan isn't the only one to give the brand a royal seal of approval either. Mejuri has become a popular brand with plenty of A-listers – and the Princess of Wales has her own pair of Mejuri gold earrings in her collection.

Meghan's go-to affordable jewellery

Meghan has been spotted in a range of reasonably priced jewellery pieces over the years, and Monica Vinader seems to be a firm favourite for the former Suits star, who has worn the brand's Linear Friendship Bracelet to several royal engagements

Missoma is also known to be one of Meghan's favourite jewellery brands, with countless pieces in her collection including the Mantra Open Heart Signet Ring and the Name Bar Necklace. 

Shop Meghan's Mejuri jewellery

HELLO!’s bling Queen and shopping expert, Leanne Bayley, is also a fan: “Mejuri has been on my radar for a while and I just think it’s the ultimate cool girl brand - it’s very popular in the States. Meghan makes these pieces look like they could have cost thousands, and that’s the beauty of quality affordable but well-made jewellery.

“I’m also not surprised by Meghan wearing this jewellery line because the CEO of Mujeri, Noura Sakkijha, is so inspiring. She founded Mejuri because she saw a jewellery industry that was built for men gifting women and not women celebrating themselves. On her website, she writes: ‘The truest expression of Mejuri is mutual uplift: all of us supporting each other, and you, our community, feeling empowered to invest in yourself and, in turn, the community around you.’

“I love that there’s a real mix of affordable pieces and luxury gems on site, and there's always something new. The website is easy to use and the holiday gift shop is so helpful as we all start to panic over what to buy our loved ones.”

    Amelia Scott Esme Stud Earrings

    Meet The Founder

    You might think that the founder is called Amelia Scott, but that's not the case. It's actually London-based jewellery designer Jane Hebden. 

    Previously Head of Creative at a well-known watch and jewellery brand, with the pieces she designed stocked in the likes of Selfridges and Harvey Nichols, Jane was awarded Retail Jewellers 30 Under 30 Rising Star Award in 2020, and several Watch Pro Awards for pieces she designed over the years. Uninspired by the minimalist brands on the market, Jane has now decided to use her 10 years of industry experience to start designing pieces that reflect her own personal style and the fun she loves to have with accessories and colour.

    Lockdown initiated the shift in her career, telling us: “I started to find my most ‘colourful self’ during and after lockdown - wearing colour really does improve my mood and I wanted to share the joy of colours with others, which was my main motivation to start the brand."

    The brand is set to become a go-to for wearable, unexpected palettes and sophisticated sparkle.

    Our choice? These Esme studs - so elegant! And the best bit? Amelia Scott is packaged in a beautiful branded velvet gift box. Get 15% off using the code THANKYOU15.

A lot of the pieces come in both 18ct gold or white gold plating and starts from £35 to £130. The brand spent a huge amount of time and investment developing their packaging, making sure all the boxes are 100% recyclable. Typically, jewellery brands use velvet, foam or plastic inserts to hold their pieces in place inside the box, and they've tried to avoid that. The inserts are made from recyclable paper wrapped card, and working with new factories who use FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certified paper and soy ink for packaging production. Maudella is one to watch!
