Its five strands of diamonds covered her decolletage and made the Queen's jewels look quite modest as they attended the Queen's banquet for the Commonwealth Heads of Government in Kampala, Uganda, on Friday.
But Camilla didn't deliberately set out to overshadow her mother-in-law - the Queen gave her permission to borrow it from the royal collection.
Camilla's favourite couturier, Anna Valentine, designed her a simple duck-egg blue dress and matching stole to set off the necklace, estimated to be worth tens of millions of dollars.
The Duchess added the Queen Mother's Boucheron tiara, a set of diamond earrings and the Queen Elizabeth II Family Order, given to female members of the royal family.

She looks like a horse in a blanket--a blanket that doesn't fit.
This girl has no idea about grace.

Looking at this photo I’ve finally come to realize that Charles must be out of his cotton-picking mind.

My 7 y/o saw Camilla's picture, so I showed her this one of Princess Diana, and she says, "Who would want to break up with a princess and marry THAT?!" Out of the mouth of babes...:-)
Charles was a FOOL. Period.

I guess they need to design a set of jewels for the Royal Whore. When the Royal males can’t kkep their wedding vows and unwrap their own family jewels for a romp in the hay, those diamonds could shine on the night stand.

She looks awful. Was the crown really necessary? That gold thing on the wall makes her makes her look like the Pope or something.
And what is that red thing tied around her arm/wrist?

For pete’s sake. She is a middle-aged woman with grown children and an unfortunate hair style. She has obviously avoided the plastic surgeon. If she had not avoided the plastic surgeon, she would be criticized for that. You will see just as bad, if not worse, in any Walmart, Macy’s, Neiman Marcus or grocery store today. If Charles is happy with her, why does anyone else care? There really is no accounting for taste. And if somebody offered me the chance to wear some of George III’s diamonds, I would take it, too. I take it all the men commenting here look like Antonio Banderas dressed by Giorgio Armani.

Oh I hardly think Camilla is any more of a Royal Whore than Diana was, no matter who was prettier.

To: bannie
While the diamonds are...well...BIG, I’m more interested in that little snippet of red yarn she’s wearing on her right wrist.
Has the Duchess gone Kabbalah?
