Our tour of the Queen’s colorful evening gowns lands in 1976 today, when she and the Duke of Edinburgh made an important royal visit to the White House in Washington, D.C.

Get excited, everyone: it’s a surprise bonus post! What could be more worthy of an extra article on a Tuesday evening than the British royals and James Bond? Here’s a look at all the sparkle from tonight’s premiere of No Time to Die at the Royal Albert Hall in London.

Our rainbow-themed journey through the Queen’s wardrobe continues today with a sparkling orange evening gown—and the spectacular sapphires and diamonds she wore with it!

This week, we’ll be looking at some of her colorful gowns and the jewels accompanying them, beginning with this appearance in Prague in 1996.

Queen Mary is perhaps most associated with pearls and emeralds, but her royal jewelry collection also included numerous gorgeous pieces set with blue sapphires. Today, we’ve got a look at some of them, including some spectacular brooches, tiaras, and necklaces.
