Meghan Markle is only a few days in to her royal tour of Australia with husband Prince Harry, but she's already debuting new fashion and beauty looks left and right. Her latest bump took us totally by surprise—and no, we don't mean her baby bump. The Duchess wore her hair in a voluminous half-up hairstyle to go visit the Macarthur Girls High School in Sydney. This is a hairstyle more often seen on her sister-in-law Kate Middleton, but we love how Markle made the look her own.
Earlier that day, Markle also switched thing up by styling her hair in a ponytail for a visit to the beach. To keep the look polished and royal, she wrapped a strand of hair around her elastic (a genius idea to upgrade any ponytail—just secure it with an elastic and some hairspray). Later in the day, she took the ponytail out and instead pulled her hair back into a half-up style with her two face-framing tendrils perfectly curled to frame her face.

Oribe Maximista Thickening Spray
We love how her hair has tons of volume at the crown, but is styled in glossy, beachy waves that look soft. The hairstyle is both casual and elegant at the same time—a Markle signature. It's likely that the Duchess could be styling her own hair for each event on the royal tour. Before becoming a Duchess, she told Beauty Banter, "There are two lines I use religiously: Kérastase (masquintense & the oleo relax line) and Wella, which has a hair oil that I am obsessed with." Her hair stylist, Lydia F. Sellers, also told Refinery29 that Markle uses Oribe's volumizing spray.
