Meghan Markle was pictured wearing King Charles's bracelet and Princess Diana's Cartier watch in Santa Barbara.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex moved to Montecito in the Santa Barbara area after stepping down as working royals nearly four years ago.
Meghan, 42, wore New Balance trainers and Krewe sunglasses for a casual outing in her local area.
She also donned a diamond tennis bracelet that was reportedly a gift from her father-in-law, King Charles.

The duchess debuted the bracelet in May 2018 when she arrived at the Cliveden House Hotel the night before her royal wedding to Prince Harry.
This sparked speculation that it was a wedding present from then-Prince Charles to his new daughter-in-law.
Charles later walked Meghan down the aisle during the nuptials.
The 42-year-old wore the accessory for the second time just days after her wedding.

Meghan stepped out alongside King Charles and Queen Camilla for her first engagement as a member of the Royal Family, where she was photographed wearing the same bracelet.
The bracelet made a third appearance in Fiji during Meghan and Harry's first major royal tour in 2018.
Another accessory that the Duchess of Sussex wore for her outing in Santa Barbara was Princess Diana's Cartier watch.
Diana was seen many times wearing her gold Cartier watch, including on a visit to London's Shri Swaminarayan Mandir Hindu Temple in 1997.
