- In previously unseen footage, Meghan Markle wears one of her absolutely favorite items of clothing: her men's J. Crew utility jacket.
- Meghan has been photographed wearing the jacket for years and, better yet, you can snag a version for yourself.
- Meghan was last seen in Morocco wearing the jacket, just two months ago.
Military jackets have been around for a long time, but they've become a staple for throwing over a casual, layerable look (I have two myself, and I'm a huge fan). And Meghan Markle has fully embraced the trend for years with her favorite utilitarian men's J. Crew jacket. ITV just released some unseen footage of a trip that Meghan took in January 2017 to Mumbai and Delhi, and what do you know—there's her jacket again! I think it's a favorite look: the bigger, bulkier jacket with a streamlined look underneath.
Although the jacket looks to be sold out in olive, it's still available in moss and navy colors (and even more affordable with a J.Crew promo code). In the footage, Meghan also wears a casual pair of white and light gray Reebok fashion sneakers, $65. She was visiting with World Vision and focused her attention on gender equality and education for girls, two causes she particularly loves.
What I love about the look is that it's juuuuuust utilitarian and unisex enough without going overboard. What's also awesome for a (now) pregnant lady is that the drawstring waist means she can cinch up or let out the jacket as needed, and it still totally fits. Now that's a perfect jacket.
In case you haven't seen it, here's the never-before-seen footage, which very clearly shows Meghan's jacket overtop a simple black shirt and pants (perfect for painting and planting, which she does in the video):

Here's a look at Meghan's most recent use of the jacket, which she donned literally just two months ago in her quick trip to Morocco with Prince Harry:
See? She's loved it for ages!
