Meghan and Kate just stepped out in similar outfits

The Duchesses of Sussex and Cambridge were out on official business yesterday, and though they attended two completely separate events, it seems like they both got the style memo.

Meghan Markle attended the 91st Field of Remembrance at Westminster Abbey alongside Prince Harry, and chose sombre colours for the occasion. The Duchess wore a cosy oversized teddy navy coat by Sentaler, with a black belt.

She teamed with knee high boots by Tamara Mellon and a fascinator by Philip Treacey, which included a sober black veil.

Meanwhile, Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge attended the launch of the National Emergencies Trust at St Martin-in-the-Fields. Kate also picked a dark blue colour palette, wearing a belted midi dress by one of her favourite designers, Emilia Wickstead.

She paired the frock with patent pumps and a clutch bag, and also wore Princess Diana's sapphire earrings, which matched her iconic engagement ring are one of her favourite bits of jewellery.

Although the two royals haven't been seen together in a while, they are expected to reunite this weekend for Remembrance Sunday.

She moved to the UK permanently and has never looked back (though she does go back regularly to stock up on cheese and wine).

Although she's always loved fashion - she used to create scrapbooks of her favourite trends and looks, including Sienna Miller and Kate Moss' boho phase - her first job was at MoneySavingExpert.com, sourcing the best deals for everything from restaurants to designer sales.

However she quit after two years to follow her true passion, fashion journalism, and after many years of internships and freelance stints at magazines including Red, Cosmopolitan, Stylist and Good Housekeeping, landed her dream job as the Digital Fashion Editor at Marie Claire UK.

Her favourite part of the job is discovering new brands and meeting designers, and travelling the world to attend events and fashion shows. Seeing her first Chanel runway IRL at Paris Fashion Week was a true pinch-me moment.
