"Tatler" magazine did an interesting piece on Birgitte, the Duchess of Gloucester's jewelry collection, and how she wears it. ( She's the late Queen Elizabeth's cousin by marriage).
At 79, a lovely and gracious lady, who shows some dash in the way she wears these baubles.
Her Art Deco diamond clips on that velvet suit, love.
A front view of those clips and that jaw-breaker pearl necklace!
Here are the pearls casually layered with another necklace--
She clearly enjoys layering. Her unusual necklace below is a gold locket in the shape of a book, and the delicate pin above it mimics another necklace. The pin on her lapel is a gold basket, in honor of an event she did with the ancient order of London basket makers ( or something like that!).
More layered gold, and a favorite charm pin--
The charm pin centered on shirt collar, gives her that gamine, 'forever-schoolgirl' look, cute!
Of course, she has access to the heavy hitter Gloucester jewels, like these yummy emeralds--
Mmmm-- look at those cabochon emerald drops! I like the way she pairs emeralds with blue outfits--
The Honeysuckle Tiara, which came down through Queen Mary, is a stunner.
Love her in the pink topazes-- glowing!
She always seems to have had a flair-- like back when she sported this dragonfly brooch on her hat.
Accompanied by steely gray pearls and a delicate floral spray--
Even the diamond ring that the Duke designed for her had a vaguely floral design, in the form of a rosette--
Speaking of the Duke, here they are casually marking their 50th wedding anniversary. She's still smartly layering her gold necklaces, and I love her contemporary watch:
That looks like a luscious ruby brooch pinned to this hat on a somber Remembrance Day--
Yet another solemn remembrance...
Elegant, lovely.

Lovely taste in jewelry and it makes her outfits look interesting. I prefer her white pearl necklace and l love the book necklace compared to the heavy hitter jewels.

Pearls are my favorite and I love that beautiful pearl necklace in the first few pictures. I wish princess Catherine would wear princess Diana's gorgeous pearl and sapphire and diamond choker necklace but it wouldn't surprise me if she doesn't until William is king.

Lovely lady and I like that she is a little "flashy" and not intimidated to be different with good taste. You go girl!

She looks lovely and wears her jewels so well. Opulent without being ostentatious.
