The Queen’s preferred bag style has a longer handle to ease the process of handshaking — a tip Meghan has seemed to notice as well (her clutch on Thursday also featured a small strap).
Meghan is definitely a bag girl: She’s beenbusting out a new pursefor nearly every occasion. Her new sister-in-law,Kate Middleton, however, is known forher love of tiny clutches.

“She may have had a small camera in it, as she likes to take impromptu snaps,” Dampier previously told PEOPLE. “She will have perhaps had her glasses in there, or her sunglasses in there if she was going out in the garden.”
She’s also rumored to include a small mirror, lipstick, mints and a pen in her bag. And on Sundays, a £5 or £10 note for the church collection plate.
