Queen Camilla (76) attended the Ascot horse race in a good mood on Saturday afternoon in an emerald green coat dress and matching hat. She paired the ensemble with black knee-high boots with block heels. She also paid tribute to the late queen with a detail on her outfit.

The piece of jewelry was given to the late Queen Elizabeth II (1926-2022) for her 90th birthday and, after her death, was passed on to her daughter-in-law, who was also a horse enthusiast. The unique piece was commissioned by the newspaper “Racing Post” from the Birmingham-based jeweler Alabaster

The Queen wore the Queen Mary’s Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara in one of her first public appearances after the funeral of her father George VI. (1895-1952) shortly after her accession to the throne.
