Meghan’s Striped Shirt From Her Luminary Bakery Visit Is the Perfect Work Shirt — and So Popular, It’s Raising Money for Her Cause

Alright, guys, this one’s a heart warmer all around.

So last Friday, Meghan visited the second location of the London-based Luminary Bakery, the bakery Meghan featured in the September issue of British Vogue she guest-edited. The bakery is a special one, not only because they make beautiful desserts (check out the Sussex Instagram of a few of the beauties below!), but also because it welcomes women in vulnerable circumstances to learn the skills of how they make their gorgeous eats!

Earlier this week The Duchess of Sussex visited the women of @LuminaryBakery as they celebrated the opening of their new location. It was a special moment to acknowledge the spirit of Luminary and their remarkable business model that opens its arms to women from vulnerable circumstances (be it abuse, poverty, trafficking, marginalisation) and equips them with the job skills and confidence to succeed. Having sat down with @luminarybakery at their flagship location earlier this year and from that inspiring visit choosing to feature them as #ForcesForChange in the September issue of @britishvogue, Her Royal Highness was proud to be invited to attend the launch of their second bakery. This addition will enable the organisation to provide services, support and mentoring for four times the number of women. Luminary Bakery – a sustainable grassroots organisation in the heart of London – is a beautiful example of community and uplifting those during hardship for the greater good. If you find yourself in the area, please visit and support the women of @LuminaryBakery to enjoy their delicious baked goods and to see the impactful work they’re doing. Video © SussexRoyal

As noted, the new location will help them support four times the amount of women they currently are — pretty amazing, right?

Also amazing? Meghan’s crisp, classic, striped button-up, courtesy of the London-based brand With Nothing Underneath, a brand that’s dedicated to creating the perfect “boyfriend shirt.”

And it really is quite perfect — any woman could wear this to work at any job! Or just as easily sport it to brunch — and clearly, I’m not alone in thinking so, because the brand announced that it sold so many of Meghan’s top, they’re able to give back to Luminary Bakery’s cause.

“Absolutely honoured that The Duchess of Sussex has chosen to wear a WNU shirt for her visit to @luminarybakery,” the company wrote via their Instagram page. “The Duchess’ work for local communities, individuals and small British businesses makes a huge difference, and we couldn’t be more proud that Her Royal Highness is wearing our shirt to carry out this work.

And nothing’s chicer than being generous. ❤️

This one’s Meghan’s exact shirt, but if you want to see more options, you can check out the company’s complete collection here.
