Prince Harry and Meghan Markle attended a reception hosted by the Hon Malcolm Turnbull, Prime Minister of Australia and his wife Lucy, celebrating the forthcoming Invictus Games Sydney 2018.

The Invictus Games is the only international sporting event for wounded, injured and sick (WIS) servicemen and women, both serving and veteran. The Games use the power of sport to inspire recovery, support rehabilitation and generate a wider understanding and respect of all those who serve their country. Sydney is the fourth city to host the Invictus Games, after London in 2014, Orlando in 2016, and Toronto in 2017.


Harry and Meghan will travel to Sydney in October for the event. It is thought the trip will be combined with a tour of Australia, New Zealand and possibly Fiji, although it is in the early stages of planning. With the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting this week, the focus is very much on strengthening ties; this morning's reception seems a very fitting way to celebrate the games which has links all over the Commonwealth.

Below, an excellent video from the engagement. It's a great wrap up of the morning and there's a very sweet moment where Harry calls "Meg" over to meet Invictus competitors.


It's been a glorious week of sunshine in London; Meghan was perfectly attired for the gorgeous weather in the Self-Portrait Cold-Shoulder Floral-Print Midi Dress. It's wonderful to see a vibrant pop of colour in Meghan's wardrobe and a hint of what we can expect for her summer engagements.


The green, black and white cold-shoulder style dress is made from floral-print crepe, it's trimmed with plissé ruffles and latticed lace inserts. It features a sweetheart neckline and a fitted bodice.


It's available at Bergdorf Goodman, Harrods, Neiman Marcus, My Theresa and Nordstrom. I love the green print.


A closer look.


The dress also comes in a Polka Dot print as shown at Neiman Marcus.

Meghan brought back the Alexander McQueen jacket and Manolo Blahnik BB pumps she wore for the Endeavour Fund Awards in February. It's interesting to see the same pieces styled for two very different events.


The £1,245 McQueen Grain de poudre wool blazer is described as being "made from grain de poudre wool, this satin-lined blazer has sharp peaked lapels, structured shoulders and angular flap pockets that draw attention to the smallest part of your frame".


Meghan's Manolo BB pumps remain available at Nordstrom.


Perth Fashion identified Meghan's stylish new bag as the Roland Mouret Mini Classico patent leather cross-body bag. It's available in several colours at Roland Mouret.

Meghan's earrings are the Cartier Galanterie Earrings (with thanks to Anne and Laura).


It is very likely Meghan will join Harry for the Queen's Birthday Party at the Royal Albert Hall tonight. It begins at 8 pm and will be televised on BBC One.
