Meghan Markle’s style has never been a boring one, just like her look at Girls Inc. of Greater Santa Barbara on October 2.
The Duchess of Sussex stepped out dressed in a business casual ensemble, opting for a J.Crew chambray shirt with crisp white pants, embodying a look that balances professionalism with effortless style.
Her outfit perfectly complemented her mission for the day: to support the nonprofit organization in conjunction with #HalfTheStory, an advocacy group focused on responsible technology.

The program is set to kick off in central California, signifying a critical step in addressing the growing concerns around youth engagement with social media and its impact.

During the event, Larissa May, the founder of #HalfTheStory, shared insights with Vanity Fair about Meghan’s engagement with the students. “We did an activity where we talked through a bunch of scenarios, and Meghan talked about being one of the most bullied people in the world,” May recounted.
This candid conversation highlights the significance of using personal experiences to foster understanding and resilience among younger audiences, a core tenet of the program.

A close friend of the couple revealed to People that while Prince Harry will maintain a focus on his nonprofit endeavors, Meghan is steering her efforts towards an entrepreneurial and enterprise-driven path. This will include not only her philanthropic work but also ambitious new projects.
