The Duchess of Sussex’s pre-princess website The Tig may be no more, but her delightful tips and tricks dished out on the lifestyle blog are timeless.

We reveal the décor advice offered up to Meghan by interior design guru Jenn Schleich to help your home achieve the Markle Sparkle.

‘Layer area rugs’

The Tig recommends this technique to add depth and texture to a room. Layering a smaller, expensive rug over a larger budget-friendly one will help your dollar go further.

‘Add shapely table accents’

This tip may be more suited to the trends of 2016, with geometric shapes said to be “continuing to influence design trends” that year. But following Schleich’s advice by using a few carefully chosen items is still relevant when trying to liven up your coffee table.

‘Use black and white’

Using black and white furniture or objects is offered up as a way to “give a modern punch to a colourful space”, especially if you’re aiming to “create a room with rich texture”.

‘Pick your pillows’ 

Choosing the right accent cushions “can transform more than just your couch”. Meghan’s blog suggests bringing items from the room to the store when purchasing pillows to ensure the colours and patterns work together.

‘Grow a plant’

Greenery is said to be “an essential component in a living space”, and helps a room feel “lived in and more casual”.
