Kate Middleton wears Princess Diana's earrings

Prince William has already given Catherine his mother's sapphire engagement ring and now the Duchess of Cambridge has been gifted with more jewelry that was once owned by the late Princess Diana.

Catherine was given a matching pair of sapphire and diamond earrings that were a favourite of Diana's. However the Duchess has put her own spin on the jewelry: she turned the studs into more modern-looking drop earrings.

It seems as if they are now Catherine's favorite pieces of jewelry as she has been spotted wearing them several times. The 29-year-old first wore them while attending Wimbledon and she also had them on during her and William's North American tour.

Princess Diana was seen wearing the earrings many times during the '80s and '90s.
