Meghan Markle embarked on a trip to Bogotá, Colombia just a few days ago. Joined by her husband and Duke of Sussex Prince Harry, the pair arrived in the country’s capitol on Aug. 15, greeted by Colombia’s Vice President Francia Márquez.
For her romp in Bogotá, the Duchess donned a pair of Manolo Blahnik BB 90mm satin pumps in black. Retailing for $725 via Bergdorf Goodman, the designer silhouette features striking pointed toes that transition into satin black uppers and 3.50-inch stiletto heels.
Leather outsoles finish off the simple set, giving the footwear a clean and sophisticated finish. If black isn’t your thing, the satin style also comes in a light cream colorway. Clearly, the royal is a fan of the silhouette, given she wore the same style in a polka-dotted print back in 2019 during her visit to Morrocco.

Black pumps are a dime a dozen. The classic silhouette is beloved by many, and for good reason. Boasting longevity and endless versatility, black pumps have been around for decades, remixed and updated with pointed toes and varying heel heights to bring the silhouette into the 21st century. Gianvito Rossi, Sam Edelman, Michael Kors and Christian Louboutin are just a few brands that carry the classic style. Leather or suede, block heel or stiletto, the black pump is here to stay.
Markle matched her black pumps with a deep navy blue set from Veronica Beard which included a sleeveless collared vest fixed with gold buckle closures accompanied by matching tailored trousers. On the accessories front, the Duchess toted a cream-colored Liana Poro bag with gold hardware.
One of Markle’s go-to shoe styles is pointed-toe pumps, which she wears in neutral and tonal hues from Jimmy Choo, Manolo Blahnik, Aquazzura and more top labels. When off-duty, her streamlined, versatile style also incorporates Valentino flats, Nike sneakers and Hunter boots.
