As the royal family gathers to celebrate the christening of Prince Louis in London today, Meghan Markle wore an olive green Ralph Lauren dress and matching hat by Stephen Jones for the occasion. This marks the second time the new royal, who typically sticks to neutral-hued ensembles, has worn color in the past week.

Meghan once again opted for a boatneck dress, which has become one of the royal's signature silhouettes in the past few months. Going for a full-on monochromatic moment, she added matching suede Manolo Blahnik pumps and a Stephen Jones hat.
Since her wedding to Prince Harry in May, it's been all eyes on Markle's blossoming royal style. For her first several engagements as an official member of the royal family, the Duchess of Sussex stuck to an all neutral color palette—opting for blush pinks, muted beige, and off white for all of her royal duties alongside Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Harry.

Last week, she first broke her neutral outfit streak when she wore a bright yellow boatneck dress by Brandon Maxwell to the ‘Your Commonwealth’ Youth Challenge Reception alongside Prince Harry.

Though the silhouette was classic, like many of Markle's outfits thus far, the bold and bright color stood out as a new look for the Duchess of Sussex.
