Princess Catherine of Wales, known for her elegant style and timeless fashion choices, recently paid a subtle tribute to her late grandmother-in-law, Queen Elizabeth II.<\/p>\n
As she joined Prince William for a date night at the Noel Coward Theatre, the Princess added a touch of glamour to her black eponine tweed dress with a pair of dazzling diamond chandelier earrings from Her Majesty’s Jewelry Collection.<\/p>\n
It is no secret that the British royal family has an affinity for sparkling jewelry, and Queen Elizabeth II was no exception.<\/p>\n
Throughout her reign, she amassed a remarkable collection of jewelry, which she often loaned out to other members of the royal family.<\/p>\n
In her later years, she frequently gifted pieces to her beloved granddaughter-in-law, Princess Catherine.<\/p>\n
The Princess of Wales has previously worn these show-stopping earrings to various black-tie events, including a reception in Paris and the Tusk Conservation Awards.<\/p>\n
The earrings, catching the light as Catherine made her way inside the theatre, elevated her otherwise pared-back look.<\/p>\n
With her tweed dress adorned with embellished buttons, silver Jimmy Choos, and a new matching clutch, the Princess effortlessly exuded elegance.<\/p>\n
This is not the first time that Princess Catherine has donned jewelry that once belonged to Queen Elizabeth.<\/p>\n
On Remembrance Sunday this year, she debuted a pair of diamond and pearl leaf earrings that were previously seen on the Queen during a visit to Nigeria in 2003.<\/p>\n
Experts speculate that these earrings may have been detachable pieces from a brooch with a similar design.<\/p>\n
Among the notable pieces from Queen Elizabeth’s collection is the festoon necklace commissioned by King George VI.<\/p>\n
Featuring 105 loose diamonds, the necklace holds sentimental value as it was inherited by the Queen from her father.<\/p>\n
The Princess of Wales paid tribute to her late Majesty by wearing this necklace for the official coronation photograph when King Charles III ascended the throne.<\/p>\n
Another iconic piece worn by Princess Catherine is Queen Elizabeth’s three-strand pearl necklace, which the monarch was famous for.<\/p>\n
The Princess donned this necklace during a Buckingham Palace lunch for the Governor’s General of the Commonwealth Nations prior to the Queen’s funeral.<\/p>\n
In 1947, the then-Princess Elizabeth received a jaw-dropping diamond necklace by Cartier from the Nizam of Hyderabad as a wedding gift.<\/p>\n
Adorned with a rose motif, this necklace holds sentimental value for the royal family.<\/p>\n
Princess Catherine first wore this statement piece at a gala for the National Portrait Gallery in 2014, and later at a Buckingham Palace reception for the Diplomatic Corps in 2019.<\/p>\n
Additionally, Princess Catherine has been seen wearing diamond and pearl earrings that were first photographed on Queen Elizabeth during her Silver Jubilee celebrations in 1977.<\/p>\n
The Princess sported these earrings on several occasions, including after the birth of Prince Louis in 2018 and while visiting Commonwealth troops ahead of the Queen’s funeral.<\/p>\n
The British royal family’s love for jewelry is well-known, and Princess Catherine continues to honor her late grandmother-in-law’s legacy by wearing these exquisite pieces.<\/p>\n
With each elegant choice, she pays homage to the rich history and tradition of the royal family.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
