Fashion How Meghan Markle wears jewelry: 10 unexpected details

Meghan’s engagement ring is half the size of Duchess Catherine’s: 6.5 carats compared to 12. Kate got Princess Diana’s ring with the sapphires that the mother of Princes William and Harry loved so much, and Megan got a ring that the groom ordered especially for her. The center stone is from Botswana, where the couple visited early in their relationship, and the two side stones are from Princess Diana’s collection. However, due to belonging to the British royal family, both rings can be considered priceless.

Prince Harry told the media that he chose gold as the base for Meghan’s engagement ring because it is her favorite metal. She wears a lot of gold jewelery and gold plated accessories and a gold based ring matches them perfectly.

Meghan pairs a small wave earring ($600/pair) with an unusual three-star earring ($350/pair). It looks bohemian!

And yes, the same bohemian rings and bracelets graced Meghan’s hands during the Commonwealth Heads of Government meeting. Such non-trivial additions do not interfere with shaking hands with politicians.

Megan didn’t “put on her best all at once”, choosing a luxury Cartier bracelet with diamonds for the wedding ceremony and leaving the earrings on the shoulder for the evening dress. And she was right.

Here, Meghan wears Birks earrings, a brand like Tiffany but from Canada. She appeared at the engagement with the prince in earrings of the same brand. The trendy model with two diamonds connected behind the earlobe, worth approximately $7,000, was to meet the entire royal family.

Not all habits of royals can be replicated by ordinary people. But not with Meghan Markle. She wears thin rings on almost all her fingers. While visiting Scotland, $44 and $60 copies were examined on her fingers. And it goes well with the neutral manicure prescribed by members of aristocratic families.

The earrings that Kate Middleton wore at her wedding were given to her by her parents. The pair from Cartier that Meghan chose for the wedding, however, do not carry the same sentimental connotation. By the way, the star already wore it – a month before the ceremony.

Meghan has obviously thought through her first secular exit as Prince Harry’s wife. She complemented the impeccable bright ensemble with a hat with earrings in the form of rosebuds worth about 2.5 thousand euros.

There is an almost hundred-year-old custom in the royal family. Brides wear rings made of very rare Welsh gold. The trend was started by the Queen Mother, Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, in 1923. Since then, her daughter, Queen Elizabeth, Princesses Anne and Margaret, Princess Diana and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, have bought such rings. Now the Duchess of Sussex has a cute family heirloom.
