Our February Flashbacks continue today with a look back at a bejeweled ensemble worn by Queen Letizia of Spain in February 2009, back when she was still the Princess of Asturias.

Purple may be the traditional color of royalty, but the Queen’s jewelry collection has relatively few pieces set with purple amethysts. One of the major exceptions is this diamond and amethyst brooch, part of an heirloom collection that dates to the days of Queen Victoria.

This week, we’re devoting our Sparkling Spotlight posts to bejeweled flashbacks to gorgeous gala appearances in Februarys past. We’re starting things off with a fabulous tiara moment from Queen Elizabeth II in February 1965.
