Meghan Markle has been spotted going smart-casual while attending a business summit in the Hamptons.
The 42-year-old was seen in attendance at the G9 Ventures Summer Summit hosted by power broker Amy Griffin.
The Duchess of Sussex wore a natural colored vest and pants by Revolve, which combined retail for around $870.
According to Page Six, Markle had flown into the millionaires enclave from Santa Barbara, California, by private jet with entrepreneur Jamie Kern Lima.
Sources told the outlet that she is there to pick up tips on her new lifestyle brand American Riviera Orchard.

Page Six reported that the annual event is held at the $13 million home of Griffin who shares the property with her husband, billionaire hedge fund manager John Griffin.
Other stars in attendance included Gwyneth Paltrow alongside Reese Witherspoon and actress Laura Dern.
Meghan’s brand soft launched earlier this year with an official Instagram page and website being set up.
She will no doubt be using the event to help her brand by soaking up tips for her new brand.
Surrounded by people like Griffin will aid her in doing just that, who according to Wall Street Journal is known for her use of ‘soft power.’
This includes making introductions, chasing down founders and offering mentorship.
She started angel investing in 2014 and launched G9 three years afterward, telling the WSJ: ‘There was a moment where I was sitting at a fundraiser thinking, ‘Wait, I can put money into something, see it grow, and use my skill set and help a founder?’.
‘And people had said to me, “Why aren’t you doing this full time? You already help people by buying their products and then sending it to everyone.”‘

G9 does not lead huge investment but does contribute smaller amounts, from tens of thousands of dollars to several million, according to the WSJ.
Markle shared the logo for her company in a 10-second story video while dressed in a black ball gown.
The clip then showed her wearing a simple white outfit while arranging flowers and cooking in the kitchen of her $14.7 million estate.
In April, Meghan sent 50 jars of her strawberry jam to influencers and celebrity friends across the United States.
Award-winning actress and comedy writer Mindy Kaling and actress Tracee Ellis Ross, daughter of Diana Ross, revealed on social media they had been gifted jars.
Each jar was labelled with the Californian American Riviera Orchard branding, and numbered out of 50. The jars are secured with a lid and muslin cloth.
Meghan’s brand will reportedly feature ‘edible oils and fats’, jellies, jams and spreads made of legumes, garlic, and sesame, as well as nut and fruit butters.
