The psychological reason Meghan Markle has been wearing so much pink lately

Another reason to blush

It’s been really interesting watching Meghan Markle’s style evolution since she married into the royal family, moving away from her laid back California vibe for a more polished, sophisticated look befitting a Duchess. We love both looks and think she looks fantastic, however it turns out that there’s a lot of thought that goes into Meghan’s new wardrobe from meaningful Princess Diana tributes, royal protocol and now even the exact colours she wears.

A colour expert broke down why Meghan’s previously minimal colour palette has started to expand for the Mail Online - more specifically, in the pale pink direction.

Expert Karen Haller explained, ‘She's sub-consciously communicating through colour that she's clearly in love. Soft pinks communicate the nurturing, compassionate, caring side of love. I’m not at all surprised she is feeling this way given the body language between her and Prince Harry - and she is reflecting this in picking the softer pinks.’

Given that the actress has only really started wearing pink following the Royal Wedding, it seems like the couple are very much loved up. In fact, she’s worn pink a couple of times since the ceremony and we’ve been 150% here for every single look.

She wore a blush pink double-breasted Prada suit at a recent Young Leaders Awards event, which gave us major First Lady vibes (even if people nitpicked about the fact she crossed her legs at the ceremony). Her off the shoulder pale pink Carolina Herrera dress at Trooping the Colour was also a vision, matched perfectly to the shade of her hat. If Meghan does one thing well, it’s nailing monochromatic looks with style and sophistication.

Although Meghan has been opting for pink recently, at Trooping the Colour royal experts speculated about why many of the women in the family instead chose to go with a pale blue. They indicated that it might be down to the fact that they wanted to show their unity as a royal family, but also read into the fact that the colour is associated with loyalty, trust and wisdom.

Odds on Meghan wearing another pink dress at her next function? We can’t wait to see what she pulls out next.
