Princess Kate's "Something Borrowed"

Kate Middleton chose the perfect accessory for her gorgeous Alexander McQueen gown. On loan from the Queen, she wore a stunning Cartier tiara that was originally made in 1936 for Queen Elizabeth (the Queen Mother). It was then given to her daughter, the current Queen on her 18th birthday.
Many thought Kate would wear Princess Diana's tiara, but I'm thrilled with this choice. The history alone is fabulous! But the smaller size & feminine curls at the top are the perfect compliment to her features.
