We shouild not expect a great show because Kate cannot (or does not want to) wear jewelry like Diana did.

Eddie,
With regrads to historic jewels, I guess we have to wait and see if she goes to the next State Oerning of Parliment.

I always wonder what she would think about Kate and Chelsey.

I do not think you will see any changes unless the first Cambridge child is a girl.
If it is a girl then I think you will see the change in the laws of successioin.

I would like to know what Ashdean and GDElla think on the subject of appropriate tiaras for Kate? Do we think that she may well continue to wear the tiara that she wore for her wedding?
I do not see Kate as a jewelry person period.
I am sure she will wear her wedding tiara as it suits her but I do not think we can expect anything in the jewelry department like Diana as Kate's style to me appears to be minimalism.
There is nothing wrong with minimalism if it suits and minimalism suits her well.

I do know if it is the exact same thread (maybe it was merged) but all the pictures and our discussion from 2007 are present. It starts about page 25. I think the D&D of Windsor threads were some how merged.

I love a lot of her jewelry as I love the Art Deco look.
Alix, Thanks for posting the picture of the bracelet. It is my all time favorite Wallis piece.
The bracelet looks "not too over the top" becuase of the picture. It actually is HUGE! I have seen a copy on someone's wrist and can you can see it from a mile away.
It is a gorgeous bracelet.

I did some image searching on Google, but I can't find the sapphire and diamond bracelet. What did it look like?
It looks like a large and gaudy mens wrist watch and I found it!
It is on page 27 of the locked D&D of Windsor thread as are great pictures of the famous Duchess of Windsor Jewels.
These are pictures that Martyn thought were lost to cyber space.

Can someone please post the picture of Wallis' sapphire and diamond bracelet.
Tackiest thing in the world and I just love it.

A very wise reporter once said that when you respond to something a stupid person said in public you do the stupid little fellow a favor becuase you give him a chance to restate the original utterance and provide a respone just in case the the general public forgot the stupid comment in the first place.
The best thing to do is just ignore the stupid little fellow in the first place.
There are many stupid little fellows on this blog.

Somewhere there is a very old thread on the Jewels of the Duchess of Windsor. I cannot find it. If someone can find it, could you please bump it up.
There are many great pictures on that thread.

Japan talked about changing their succession laws ao a woman could sit on the throne and don't think the idea went anywhere.

That's really interesting Ashdean. I hadn't realised that it might have been possible to wear this jewel as a necklace, but perhaps this photo gives an idea that it might be possible?
Dudes,
I wear the stomacher as a necklace "Rachel Zoe" style...jeans, killer white T-Shirt, leather jacket and 6-inch YSL TirbToo hooker heels! LOL!
