Queen Consort Camilla looked elegant as ever as she joined her family for the Commonwealth Day service on 13 March. The royal looked beautiful in blue beside her husband King Charles as the couple were reunited with other senior royals, including the new Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh and Princess Anne at Westminster Abbey.

For the grand occasion, Queen Camilla wore an electric blue coat and matching dress by Fiona Clare Couture. The two-piece featured an A-line silhouette, a midi length, a tailored construction and a classic collar boasting a radiant shade of cobalt.

A spherical befeathered Philip Treacy hat showcasing an identical hue held her blonde hair in place, which had been blow-dried into a voluminous coif with an effortless side-parting.

Fans were quick to notice Queen Camilla's touching choice of jewellery. King Charles's wife wore the Russian Sapphire Cluster Brooch, a particular favourite of the late Queen Elizabeth II's. It features a beautiful, intricate gold filigree set between its dazzling sapphire collection and a cluster of diamonds. The brooch was also adored by the Queen Mother, who passed the piece on to her daughter.

The stunning piece was once part of another royal collection belonging to the Romanov empress, Marie Feodorovna, consort of Tsar Alexander III and mother of Tsar Nicholas II.
