With the joyous occasion of his christening, you would expect all eyes to be on the three-month-old Prince Louis, third and youngest child of Prince William and his wife Kate Middleton, who is fifth in line to succeed the British throne.
Yet, our eyes were also enraptured by the stunning earrings that his mother, the Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton, wore for the christening. The earrings matched perfectly with an understated cream Alexander McQueen dress and a Jane Taylor hat, creating an ensemble that exuded class and style befitting of the royal duchess.
With a hefty price tag of £4,360 (about S$7,805), the earrings are expensive as they look. Made by British luxury jeweller Cassandra Goad, each earring is made with seven pearls set with 0.3 carat diamonds and 18 carat yellow gold. The inspiration of this phenomenal earrings comes from the most unlikely place – clusters of young flower stalks of the cauliflower in the market.
