What to expect? Markle’s best hairstyles include loose curls, sleek ponytails and elegant up-dos. Oh, and possibly an accessory or two (royals love their hats!).

French Twist

In a departure from her signature messy bun and glossy blowout, Markle took a whirl at the classic French twist updo adorned with tropical flowers while visiting the University of the South Pacific in Fiji on Wednesday, October 24. But, naturally, she gave the look some California-girl vibes by leaving some tendrils out in the front.

Pony Up

While it’s not the first time in history the mom to be sported a ponytail in public, it is one of the first times she’s worn the classic style since becoming a royal (she opted for a more low-key version underneath her hat at Prince Louis’ christening in July). The Duchess rocked a center part and secured her strands at the nape of her neck (shout out for dressing up the look by wrapping a piece of hair around the elastic!), while visiting Dubbo, Australia, on Wednesday, October 17.
