The Duchess of Sussex showed us how to work one of the season's biggest trends this morning (Friday), during a royal engagement with Prince Harry.

The mum-of-one looked so autumnal in a statement berry-red outfit to attend a discussion on gender equality with The Queen's Commonwealth Trust and One Young World at Windsor Castle.

For the occasion, Meghan looked so on-trend in a berry-red leather BOSS pencil skirt. The royal teamed the stylish piece with a simple V-neck jumper and dark court heels.

Leather and faux leather skirts are everywhere right now and the perfect way to update your wardrobe for the new season. You can dress them up or down depending on the occasion.

We love a leather skirt paired with a crisp white shirt for work, teamed with a tucked in oversized t-shirt at the weekend or jazzed up with a lace blouse and strappy heels for a night out.

The good news is, if you love Meghan's skirt as much as us you can still get your hands on it. The £369 skirt is still available in most sizes on the Hugo Boss website.

But, if Meghan's statement skirt is a little out of your budget, don't worry! There are loads of similar pieces available to buy on the high street right now.

Meghan is always giving us style inspiration. Earlier this week, the Duchess attended the One Young World summit opening ceremony, stunning in a statement purple midi dress by Babaton for Aritzia.
