But the accessory that really topped off her look was her toothpick, which she had in her mouth while walking in, and then appearing to stash it on the side of her hat before enteringSt. George’s Chapel.

The Duchess of Sussex has famously turned to pants suits for royal engagement, a move which doesn’t exactly align withQueen Elizabeth‘s royal dressing protocol.
TheQueen, who never wears slacks, prefers women in the royal family to wear dresses or skirts — something whichMeghan has broke tradition on.
Asource previously told PEOPLEthat although Meghan has quickly adapted to many of the minutiae of royal dos and don’ts, she “has found certain rules in the royal household difficult to understand, like the fact that the Queen prefers women in dresses or skirts rather than trouser suits, and is often asking Harry why things have to be done in a certain way.”
“I think she finds it a little frustrating at times, but this is her new life, and she has to deal with it,” the source added.
So while Delevingne’s look might not have the Queen’s stamp of approval, the Internet certainly fell in love with her style statement.
Many remarked on social media that the standout fashion moment from Friday’s wedding was in fact the model’s bold outfit choice.
