Next up on our countdown of the best tiara moments from Crown Princess Victoria’s 2010 royal wedding is … the diamonds and pearls worn by Infanta Cristina of Spain!

This was one of Infanta Cristina’s last major tiara appearances, thanks to the scandal surrounding her husband, Inaki Urdangarin, and his corruption conviction.

It was also Cristina’s first and only public appearance in a major royal tiara: the diamond and pearl tiara that belonged to her great-grandmother, Queen Ena of Spain.

These days, it’s rare to see this particular tiara worn by a woman who is not a reigning queen, so this outing on Cristina was especially unusual. The tiara was made by Cartier in the 1920s; it was a renovation of one of Queen Ena’s wedding gifts. It was also originally able to be worn with Ena’s emeralds, which were later sold.

Cristina paired the diamond and pearl sparkler with a pair of diamond floral earrings.

Here’s a look at Cristina’s entire ensemble for the royal wedding; you’ll also spot some sparkle on her right wrist!

Our countdown of the best tiara moments at Crown Princess Victoria’s royal wedding continues with our ninth pick: the Mellerio Shell Tiara, worn by Queen Sofia of Spain!

This gorgeous and unusual Spanish royal tiara is designed to mimic a shell opening to reveal glistening pearls. It’s been in the family for generations, but it’s not worn as frequently today, so it was delightful to spot it on Sofia in Stockholm. A maritime-themed tiara was the perfect choice for the Swedish city on the water!

Sofia also amped up the diamond wattage with several other important royal jewels, including the diamond earrings and bracelets from the joyas de pasar collection.

She also suspended a pearl and diamond pendant from her single-stranded pearl necklace.
