Happy 35th Birthday to the Duchess of Cambridge! To mark Kate’s birthday, we’re spending all week counting down 35 of her best pieces of jewelry. The list includes some of my favorites from her own jewelry box as well as pieces she’s borrowed from the royal vaults. This evening, we’re kicking off the countdown with the first seven pieces…

29. The Cambridge-Cornwall Charm Bracelet: A sentimental piece from Kate’s jewelry box, this charm bracelet is thought to be Camilla’s wedding gift to her daughter-in-law. It features both of their cyphers. (See close-ups over here!)
