Let’s catch up a little bit with a royal jewelry moment from the Spanish royal family, shall we? The Borbóns were in Lloret de Mar on July 10 for the annual Princess of Girona Awards, and there were some lovely accessories on display at the awards ceremony.

King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia of Spain were joined by their daughters, the Princess of Asturias and Infanta Sofia, for the Princess of Girona Awards on July 10. The Prince/Princess of Girona title is one traditionally held by the heir to the Spanish throne, dating from the days when it was the title for the heir to the Crown of Aragon.
Infanta Leonor has held the Girona princely title for the last decade, and she helped to present the prizes during this year’s awards ceremony. Winners were honored for their work in several fields, including arts and literature, business, social work, scientific research, and international efforts.

For the awards ceremony, both the Queen and the Princess wore significant earrings with their ensembles. Queen Letizia went for both a dress and jewelry from Carolina Herrera. These are the brand’s Falling Jasmine Earrings, which have been in Letizia’s jewelry box for some time.

For me, though, the real stars of the show were the dazzling earrings worn by Princess Leonor with her navy blue Self Portrait dress.

The long earrings feature diamonds and pear-shaped gemstone drops with a vibrant shade of royal blue. The stones are reportedly sapphires.

The earrings were previously worn by Queen Letizia. Here, she pairs them with a navy blue dress for a concert celebrating the 40th anniversary of the Spanish Constitution in 2018. Some have speculated that the earrings may have also been previously worn by Queen Sofia.

Here’s another look at the earrings on Leonor. Like so many young women, she also has a second piercing with a tiny diamond stud.
