Our first glimpse of the princess, en route to ceremony in the Rolls, unleashed a flurry of approving murmurs (one or two of us may have squealed)—there was so much to be excited about: Sleeves, a tiara, hair half-up/half-down...And as we got a closer look, a flicker of diamonds caught our eye. We were sure we'd seen these earrings before...not this exact pair (as it happens, they were a gift to Kate from her parents and are by London Jeweler Robinson Pelham), but a similar style we remembered trying at our most recent Brides Local Magazines cover shoot. They're by the L.A.-based designer Simon G., who always finds beautiful, interesting ways to showcase diamonds. Like Kate's earrings, these delicate danglers would perfectly complement any regal wedding gown.— Amy Elliott
