Heart-shaped earrings are £400 cheaper than Meghan Markle’s | Royal | News

Meghan Markle’s accessories have quietly stolen the spotlight during her four-day trip to Australia this week. The former royal, 44, was snapped wearing a pair of £585 earrings from Australian label Refine Studio – a statement style that instantly elevated her look.
The gold heart shape studs she wore on the first day of her trip down under are bold, eye-catching and undeniably elegant. They’re the kind of piece that does all the heavy lifting: simple enough for day-to-day wear, but impactful enough to pull an entire outfit together. However, they’re not the most affordable, especially given the hefty shipping and import taxes when buying an item from Australia.
So, naturally, we went on the hunt for a more accessible alternative, and this Monica Vinader pair is one of the closest matches we’ve found. While they’re not Meghan’s exact design, they tap into the same bold, statement feel that made her earrings stand out.
Crafted from 18k gold vermeil, these heart-shaped studs have a similar sculptural look, making them just as impactful. They are slightly smaller than Meghan’s earrings, but we love their sleek, flat finish.
And there’s another reason they’re worth considering. Monica Vinader is already a firm favourite among the royals. Both the Duchess of Sussex and the Princess of Wales have been spotted in the brand’s pieces over the years, giving this alternative a subtle royal stamp of approval.
