Zara Tindall looks so glam in waist-cinching dress and pearls

Zara Tindall looked beautiful in black when she joined her husband Mike Tindall at The 03 Champions Ball, hosted at London’s swanky Dorchester Hotel over the weekend.

The 43-year-old royal looked beautiful in a jacquard dress with a nipped-in waistline and elbow-length sleeves as she cosied up to her husband at the charity bash.

The garment's floor-length, ballgown style was given a casual twist thanks to a relaxed shirt collar neckline.

The mother-of-three pulled her blonde hair back into a low bun and accessorised with large pearl earrings. The statement accessories were complemented by a snakeskin print clutch bag.

Mike was also spotted looking dapper in his black tie get-up, cosying up to Zara as they showed their support for a good cause.

The annual Champions Ball includes a champagne reception, sit-down dinner and charity auction.

The glittering soirée was attended by a host of famous faces, including former Strictly dancer Kristina Rihanoff - who snapped a cheeky selfie with Zara - and actor James Nesbitt.

 Zara's understated style

The royal mum – who raises children Mia, 10, Lena, six, and Lucas, three, with husband Mike – typically favours understated outfits, so it's always a pleasure to see her dressed up.

More at home in jodhpurs and riding boots than in formal attire, Zara tends to opt for a statement dress or coat in a rich jewel tone or a simple black outfit teamed with one killer accessory.

Zara is more at home in off-duty clothing

This isn't the first time Zara has worn the gorgeous drop earrings. The equestrian daughter of Princess Anne donned the tiered jewels to attend the relaunch of Rebecca Vallance in Harrods a year ago.

She once again let the statement piece do the talking, teaming her jewellery with a black crystal-trimmed dress.

She does love a bold jewel hue, however

Another memorable pearl moment for Zara came at King Charles’ coronation, which saw her jazz up her bright blue outfit with a pair of 18K white gold Nieva earrings from Australian jeweller Calleija.

Meanwhile, at her late grandmother Queen Elizabeth II's lying in state, Zara paid tribute to the monarch's love of pearls with a beautiful pair of pearl earrings which perfectly offset her elegant netted headband.
