Royal jewels...

Did you happen to see the photos of the fabulous Kate Middleton attending an event in London the other night? For those of you who were around when Princess Diana made her first public appearances, the dress Kate wore struck me as almost identical to a velvet dress Diana wore with Princess Grace of Monaco and Prince Charles in 1981.  But, the jewelry Kate wore was simply stunning - a diamond and ruby necklace with shooting stars, matching earrings AND a bracelet.  All apparently a gift from a 'family friend.'  Wow, I wish I had those kinds of friends, don't you??

Here come the jewels...

You can see them here a bit better...
