It’s Ladies’ Day today at Royal Ascot, and the British royal women brought some major sparkle with them for the occasion.

The Queen wore a brooch from the collection of her late mother: the Centenary Rose Brooch.

The brooch, which is made of hand-painted rock crystal and set with 100 diamonds, was the Queen’s gift to mark her mother’s hundredth birthday in 2000. She inherited the brooch not quite two years later when the Queen Mother died.

The Princess Royal was lovely in her diamond and pearl earrings and a pearl necklace with a gorgeous diamond and aquamarine pendant.

Here’s another view of Anne’s jewels, including her spectacular pendant.

The Countess of Wessex was lovely in earrings with gem-set studs and drops.

She also wore a stack of bracelets and a gorgeous cocktail ring set with a blue stone, either an aquamarine or a blue topaz. (Sophie has a large collection of aquamarine/topaz jewels.)

Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie made their customary Ladies’ Day appearance, but neither wore any significant jewelry. How would you accessorize these outfits?

The Duchess of Gloucester was lovely in her diamond, emerald, and pearl jewels, including Princess Alice’s pearl and emerald necklaces. (More on those here!)

The Countess of Snowdon, daughter-in-law of the late Princess Margaret, was also in attendance at the races. Serena wore lovely pearls for the day.

It’s the second day of the Royal Ascot races, and we’ve got even more royal jewelry to enjoy! Here’s a look at the sparkle on display.

The Queen chose one of her favorite brooches, the Jardine Star, for the day, pairing it with a light blue ensemble. (You can learn more about the brooch here!)

The Duchess of Cornwall wore her favorite combination of pearls and diamonds for daytime, this time with her four-stranded pearl necklace with the large diamond clasp. Camilla wasn’t the only duchess present at the races; the Duchess of Gloucester, who was celebrating her birthday, wore pearls with a lovely purple pendant. (You can see a great photo of Birgitte by Mark Stewart here.)

The Princess Royal was lovely in pearls and her diamond and gold floral brooch.

The Countess of Wessex wore a pair of rather fun pendant earrings set with pale blue-green stones.

Princess Alexandra rode in the lead carriage beside her cousin during the procession. She wore her lovely emerald and diamond earrings, her diamond and emerald butterfly brooch, and her favorite pearl choker necklace with the geometric clasp.

Her sister-in-law, Princess Michael of Kent, wore colorful accessories with her neutral outfit.

Autumn Phillips was also in the carriage procession. She wore her classic pearl and diamond earrings.

It’s that time of year again, everyone: Royal Ascot has arrived! Here’s a look at the royal jewels we saw this morning on the racecourse for the first day of the races.

The Queen wore sunny yellow for the first day of the meet, and her brooch choice, Queen Mary’s Russian Brooch, picked up some of the blue hues in her dress and hat.

The geometric brooch, which features a large square-cut diamond and a sugarloaf cabochon sapphire, was Queen Mary’s wedding gift from Empress Marie Feodorovna of Russia (an aunt of Mary’s husband, King George V).

The Duchess of Cornwall was lovely in cream for the day, accessorizing with her pearl drop earrings and her four-stranded pearl necklace with the round diamond clasp. (They’re the same jewels she wore yesterday for Garter Day as well.)

The Duchess of Sussex made her Ascot debut on Tuesday, presenting the winner’s cup for the St. James Stakes with her new husband, the Duke of Sussex.

According to What Meghan Wore, Meghan wore the pave-set Petale gold and diamond earrings from Birks.

The Princess Royal was regal in gold, diamond, and pearls for the day, wearing the gold and diamond stalactite clip brooch from Andrew Grima, which was a wedding gift from her mother.

She paired the brooch with her modern gold and pearl earrings, which I believe are also by Grima. Even in the bright sun, Anne looked lovely and serene today, and rightly so: it was announced this morning that her daughter, Zara, had given birth to a healthy baby girl! No news on the name of the Queen’s newest great-grandchild yet.

No substantial jewelry from either Princess Beatrice or Princess Eugenie today, though Eugenie was wearing her engagement ring. How would you have accessorized these ensembles?

The Countess of Wessex added a pop of color to her outfit with square-cut lemon quartz drops from Heavenly Necklaces, worn suspended from a pair of diamond stud earrings. I’m most interested, however, in her absolutely gorgeous diamond rose brooch, worn pinned just above her badge.

Princess Michael of Kent was also in the carriage procession today, wearing a station necklace set with baroque pearls and dark beads, as well as large gold earrings set with pearls, diamonds, and enamel.
