He commented: “Camilla is very much showing her personal taste with these earrings, which I have to say do look fabulous on her.”

For footwear, Queen Camilla wore a pair of brown suede wedge heels, which look very similar to Kate Middleton’s Monsoon “Fleur” espadrilles.

In addition, the Queen Consort wore a gold plate pendant with a ruby in the centre, which is also her birthstone for the month of July.
