Meghan Markle shared a photo of herself running weekend errands, including a visit to a garden centre, wearing an all-black pair of aviator sunglasses. The Duchess has long favoured this cool shape, wearing Ray-Ban Aviators as well as styles from Linda Farrow and independent British brand Finlay & Co.
Affordable alternatives
For those on a budget, high street brands offer plenty of stylish aviator sunglasses. A lookalike of Meghan's all-black pair from Fossil costs only £34.50. A lightweight acetate style from H&M is available for just £9.99, featuring supportive moulded side panels for comfort without nose bridge pads.
Tips for choosing flattering frames
When shopping for aviators, consider where the top bar sits—ideally on or just below the brows, not covering them entirely. Frames should align with the sides of your face and not extend beyond; if lenses sit on your cheeks, the frames are too big or sit too low.
Timeless gold metal option
For a classic look, gold metal frames with dark lenses are universally flattering. Meghan has worn this combination in Linda Farrow Newman style (over £900). A similar pair from Next costs just £16, perfect for summer holidays.
