Apples don’t fall far from the tree — er, orchard.

We haven’t yet gotten our fill of Meghan Markle’s newlifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard (it’s set to launch later this year), but we are getting lots of looksduring her visit to Colombia. Two of which, a blazer-and -pants outfit and a maxi dress moment, just incorporated a$750 Cesta Collective crossbody bag, the purse style that’s roping in everyone fromTaylor SwifttoJennifer AnistontoOprah.

Though she’scarried a toteandhandheld clutchfrom the brand before, it’s no wonder she’d opt for a hands-free style this time around: This way, she could socialize without all the fuss that a heavier shoulder style would require.

If you want the same benefits for less, keep scrolling to shop these similar crossbody purses from Coach, Kate Spade, and more.
