All eyes on are mom-to-be Meghan Markle (and her style) as she and Prince Harry travel through Australia on their royal tour. Yesterday, the Duchess of Sussex donned a gray plaid blazer from her close friend Serena Williams' namesake clothing line.
Meghan wore the aptly titled "Boss Oversized Blazer" while arriving in Dubbo, paired with black skinny pants, a white button-up top, and black booties.

After seeing photos of the Duchess rocking a piece from her brand, Williams took to Instagram to express her gratitude to her royal friend.
"The face you make when you and Duchess of Sussex Meghan have matching @serena blazers 😍#BeSeenBeHeard," the tennis champion wrote on Instagram. She posted photos of both Meghan and herself in the blazer, and Serena looked especially happy in her shot.
Since Meghan donned the blazer, it sold out online. Photos of her wearing the look were even featured on the welcome page of the website and the brand's Instagram account.
"Duchess Meghan in our Boss Blazer. A collection fit for Royalty. Click the bio link to shop our royal collection and be the ROYAL that YOU are. #BeSeenBeHeard #NationalBossDay," one caption read.
Although the blazer is no longer available to shop online, other items from the "royal" collection still are — including the "Royal Duchess" hoodie and tee.

Williams also showed an outpouring of support when Markle's charity cookbook was released in September. "I used to call you Meghan (and I still do) but dear Duchess of Sussex your first project “Together” a cookbook bringing women of all cultures together. I could not be more excited about it and proud of you," she wrote on Instagram.
Williams and husband Alexis Ohanian were also guests at the Royal Wedding in May.
