The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge brought along a surprise guest — Prince George! — to the Royal International Air Tattoo this morning. But before we get to the adorable prince, let’s have a look at the jewelry that his mother wore for the event.

We’ve had lots of excitement over new earrings with Kate this week, but today she went with a tried-and-true pair from her jewelry box: the Kiki McDonough Lauren earrings.

We also got a great look at some of Kate’s most important pieces: her sapphire and diamond engagement ring, her gold wedding ring, and her diamond eternity band.

And here’s an excellent close-up of her watch. Kate wears a Ballon Bleu timepiece by Cartier.

In some photos, you can also see a hint of a gold chain and clasp underneath the neckline of Kate’s dress.

And she wore one more accessory as well: a patterned headband (or “Alice band,” if you’re a Brit) to keep her hair out of her face.

And, okay, it’s Friday: here’s an adorable prince just for you!

7. In Paris, Princess Sirivannavari Nariratana of Thailand attended the Christian Dior Haute Couture Fall/Winter 2016 show on Monday; she wore a major pair of earrings for the event, and I think we can assume that they’re by Dior.

2. Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom has been in Scotland all week, and on Saturday, she wore her mother’s diamond palm leaf brooch for the opening of Scotland’s parliament in Edinburgh. (This almost got my top vote of the week, but it’s partially hidden by her lapel in all of the photos!)

1. The fun, glittering tassel earrings worn by Queen Maxima of the Netherlands this week ended up getting my top vote. These feature gemstone beads (probably garnets?) gathered by diamond “ribbons.” She wore them for a meeting with the Greek president at Noordeinde Palace on Monday.
