Queen Camilla has nailed the art of accessorising! Whether she's overseas undertaking a royal tour, or on home turf at a glittering state banquet, Her Majesty never fails to spruce up her looks with exquisite jewels.
The royals have access to the late Queen's private jewellery collection which is teeming with diamond tiaras, gleaming pearl earrings and sapphire sets. And in recent years, Camilla has worn a plethora of these precious items, much to the delight of royal fans.

They braved a downpour, with Charles looking smart in a double-breasted tan coat while Camilla wrapped up warm in a chocolate-hued coat and a faux fur-trimmed hat. The real star of the show, nonetheless, was her dazzling diamond brooch that took pride of place next to her collar.

It takes the form of a Georgian cross and reportedly features topaz and diamonds.
This isn't the first time Camilla has seemingly paid tribute to the late monarch by opting to wear sentimental jewels.

The matching clip brooches were gifted to Queen Elizabeth II by her parents when she was a teenager in the 1940s. She most notably wore them on a trip to North America in 1951, a royal appearance in Bracknell in 1991, and to the Epsom Derby in 1995.

When they are not being worn, the collection is stored in the Queen's Gallery at Buckingham Palace.
Her personal collection is separate from The British Crown Jewels which are housed in the Tower of London. It includes the likes of the Imperial State Crown and the St Edward's Crown which is used during a monarch's coronation ceremony.
