Meghan Markle turned heads in a sequined skirt and sharp white shirt on Sunday as she arrived at a theatre in Cali, Colombia, to deliver a speech on the final day of the Sussexes 'quasi-royal' tour of the South American country.
The Duchess of Sussex, 43, looked radiant in a £1,634 patterned mdi skirt embellished with sequins by Miami-based designer Silvia Tcherassi and a sleeveless white shirt with silver buttons.
Meghan, who gave a speech at the Afro women and power forum taking place at Cali's Municipal Theatre, was accompanied by Prince Harry, 39, who chose a pale blue, linen shirt for the occasion.
The Duchess's hair was swept back into a glamorous updo, revealing a pair of gold statement earrings, while she kept her make-up natural.
She completed her outfit with a pair of pink suede pumps and Princess Diana 's £17,800 Gold Tank Française Watch, along with a £5,800 Cartier Love Yellow Gold Bracelet.

Meghan's look today marks a move away from the monochrome outfits she sported earlier on in the tour.
For her first look, Meghan chose one of her favourite designers, Johanna Ortiz, who is from Colombia, pairing the Deep Ocean silk crop top with the Hello Sailor silk maxi skirt. The two pieces together cost approximately £1,700.
As she visited the historic Afro-Caribbean village of San Basilio de Palenque, which was founded 300 years ago by freed slaves, she chose a chose a chic white linen skirt from Posse, the Emma design, costing approximately £200. She paired the wardrobe staple with a white crew neck tank top from Argent, costing £120.
For mother-of-two Meghan, who has previously been known to favour exclusive and pricey designers, this look favoured more modestly-priced key pieces - but it was her jewellery that upped the price tag of the outfit.
Keeping her favoured and most treasured jewellery pieces close, Meghan chose her Cartier Gold Tank Francaise Watch, which once belonged to Princess Diana and is valued at £17,800.
She paired it with her Cartier Justr Un Clou Necklace in Yellow Gold with Diamonds, costing £15,500, and added a final Cartier touch, the Love Yellow Gold Bracelet, which costs £5,800.
Elsewhere, the Duchess added sweet nods to her children, Archie and Lili, by donning her Ariel Gordon Imperial Disc Pendant necklace engraved with the children's names, costing £1,425.
As the couple kicked off the third day of their tour of the South American nation, they were greeted once again by Colombia's vice president Francia Marquez as they visited a school and took part in a bongo drum workshop.

For their second meeting of the day, they visited the village of San Basilio de Palenque, which has a fascinating history after being founded by freed African slaves almost 300 years ago. It is now described as a 'little corner of Africa' in the nation.
The stop was particularly significant for Meghan, as when she visited Nigeria in May she said she was '43 per cent Nigerian'.
