Meghan Markle oozed glamour as she laughed with her friends at a glitzy launch party in Los Angeles this week - without her husband Prince Harry.
The Duchess of Sussex, 43, has ventured out solo a few times in the last few months, most recently attending the glitzy launch party for her latest investment on Thursday night.
Meghan put on a glamorous display in a sleeveless £660 black top, featuring a sweetheart neckline, from New York brand Khaite, and wide-leg trousers as she supported her friend and A-lister hairdresser Kadi Lee in Venice, California.
Posing up a storm at the celeb-loved restaurant Gjelina, sensa138 the pals were celebrating the launch of Kadi's new Highbrow Hippie hair wellness range, which Meghan has invested in.
New photographs from the glamorous night out show Meghan dancing with her friends to a gospel choir performance in her strapless black ensemble.

The duchess smiled and clapped along to the music, grinning with her friends Kadi Lee and Myka Harris.
Adding a touch of glitz to her elegant ensemble, the Duchess, 43, who was pictured partying without her husband Prince Harry, opted for a gold set of earrings, a dainty matching necklace and several rings.
Sporting a glamorous makeup look, Meghan styled her hair into curls and completed her outfit with a pair of strappy heels.
The Duchess, who is also an investor in trendy oat latte brand Clevr Blends, as well as handbag label Cesta Collective, said about her latest investment: 'I am so proud to invest in [Kadi] as a friend and as a female founder.
She told InStyle: 'Kadi has a mastery of hair health, and her Highbrow Hippie collection is a perfect reflection of that.'
The hairdresser - whose salon is based in the bohemian LA neighbourhood of Venice - boasts several famous clients, such as Oscar-winning actress Julia Roberts, Brad Pitt and Sigourney Weaver.
Meghan was joined by friend and makeup artist, Daniel Martin, as well as celeb hairstylist Serge Normant, who famously styled the mother-of-two's hair for her wedding ceremony in 2018.

Serge is believed to have introduced Meghan to Kadi, who has often posted on social media about colouring the Duchess' hair.
The hairdresser and her friend Myka Harris founded their salon in 2019 following the success of their shared blog.
Their webpage - which also reveals the owners' star signs - reads: 'Highbrow Hippie was created to fill a void. Our goal is to expand the definition of a salon and return to its historical meaning - a gathering place to exchange thoughts and ideas.
'Creating a sense of community, self care and a way to drop out for a few hours and focus on yourself.
'Our intention is to refocus on self care, community and experience. What works best for our customers is always top of mind and we hope that people will leave feeling inspired, connected, grounded and maybe having learned something new - either about themselves or someone else.

'These small steps and attention to detail equal a huge amount of luxury in today's fast paced and overly connected world.'
Their new collection will include the Root Replenish Active Growth Serum ($88.00) and the Essential Wellbeing Complex supplement ($118.00) to start with.
While Kadi doesn't have her own Instagram, the stylist often shares posts from her salon, Highbrow Hippie's, account.

High Brow Hippie salon co-owner Kadi Lee revealed that she did Meghan's hair colour ahead of the Women of Vision awards in New York in May 2023
She previously worked at the Aveda Institute in New York as well as a stylist and often blogs about her life, including posts about 'aligning your period with the moon' and details on how she colours celebrity's hair.
As well as being a hair salon, Myka and Kadi's brand also promotes 'conscious living' and sells smokeless incense, California olive oil, Mason Pearson hairbrushes and magnesium food supplements.
In 2020, the pair also attended a BLM march and highlighted how they are the only black-owned business on their street.
They captioned the post: 'Where are the others?? If we were to take an educated guess, the lack of presence is due to the myriad of systemic roadblocks that begins with the lack of access to capital.
'Black women start businesses at 4 times the rate of others, and get the least funding - the most people in the room and yet the least amount of dollars. A dismal 0.34% of total venture capital spent to be exact. Make that make sense.'
