Queen Camilla looked chic alongside her husband today for Commonwealth Day celebrations at Westminster Abbey. She opted for a royal blue coat dress.
Camilla’s brooch was the Russian Sapphire Cluster Brooch, previously worn by the late Queen Elizabeth II.
This was reportedly one of the numerous jewels that Queen Elizabeth II inherited from her grandmother, Queen Mary, in 1953.
But for years it was sported by the Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother, as one of her “favourite pieces”, according to The Court Jeweller.
Historically the brooch – which now belongs to the British Royal Family – was under the possession of a very influential Romanov empress.
To further accessorise, Camilla went for a fabulous hat in the same shade of blue and adorned with feather.
She wore chic black leather gloves and held a black clutch under one arm.
Her incredible sapphire brooch was certainly the statement jewel of the day, although Camilla also wore her signature Van Cleef & Arpels Alhambra bracelet to complement the blue theme.
Camilla also went for some lovely pearl earrings – clip-on of course because the Queen Consort famously revealed she will never get her ears pierced.
She went for opaque black tights in keeping with royal protocol, and a trusty pair of black suede kitten heels.
As for her hair, Camilla went for her signature style, buttery blonde locks in a flicked out style.
The Queen Consort finalised her fab look with a pop of pink lipstick, rouged cheeks, mascara and dark eyeliner.
Praising the royal’s latest look, @PearlChanJack tweeted: “Gorgeous! Love Queen Camilla’s ensemble.” @LunaB65353431 added: “Queen Camilla looks gorgeous in blue!”
