For today's stately welcome, the Princess of Wales chose a diplomatic touch, wearing a bespoke maroon coat by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen, a nod to the maroon featured in the Qatari flag.​

The maroon coat is beautiful, suits her well. The boots are gorgeous! love them! Her bag is divine! Love her pearl choker, and earrings, beautiful. The Princess also wore a beautiful pearl bracelet that was once Princess Diana's. I love this bracelet, it was wonderful to see her wear it again. Catherines up style hair looked good.
More importantly she looks well and happy. Its wonderful to see her.

Hey El, I think she is wearing a pearl bracelet in the photos which are from inside the palace where she is wearing the eponine coat.

Good eye.
Is it not included in the jewelery section, Elizabeth? Couldn't find it in the bracelet section.

I saw some jewelery pieces on this page. There are some royal necklaces, some pearl and other earrings and bracelets that Charles gifted to her aling with these pearl ones that can be added to the blog, El.
