Yahoo Finance The Duchess of Cambridge's affordable Monica Vinader necklace is still in stock
Yesterday, the Duchess of Cambridge arrived in Copenhagen for an official public visit. This is Kate's first solo outing of 2022 and her first trip abroad since 2019, marking two years since the pandemic first hit the UK.
The duchess is researching Denmark's innovative children's' development methods to promote her work with the Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood. Announcing the trip on the Kensington Royals' official Twitter page earlier in the month, she wrote:
"Looking forward to learning from experts, parents & practitioners about Denmark’s approach to early childhood later this month. Denmark is a beacon of best practice in its approach to the early years, with a culture which prioritises the best start in life."
Kate kept her look strictly smart/casual for her visit to the University of Copenhagen's to Center for Early Intervention and Family Studies; which is fitting, since she was seen sliding down a helter skelter at the clinic's Lego PlayLab (a project to encourage playful learning approaches during teacher training).
The duchess wore a Balmain-inspired blazer from Zara, cut from red tweed and finished with nautical gilt buttons. She underpinned this high-street jacket with a pie-crust trim blouse, which looked beautiful with a pearl pendant nestled between. And she accessorised with Aspinal's celebrity-approved Mayfair bag.
Kate's blazer isn't the only affordable piece she wore yesterday: the necklace in question costs just £120 from Monica Vinader.

This pretty piece is is strung from a recycled gold-vermeil chain and drops to a detachable cultured pearl – so you can play with the components to create several looks in one.
Monica Vinader has upped its eco credentials recently, switching to 100 per cent recycled metals, offseting emmisions to become totally carbon neutral and introducing its lifetime repair service to encourage re-use. So despite its affordable price point, Kate's Nura necklace is a true investment.
This isn't the first time the Duchess of Cambridge has championed British brand Monica Vinader. She's worn the brand's Siren earrings several times since she first invested back in 2016 – a sure sign these pieces are made to last.

Monica Vinader's sustainable collection with Mother of Pearl is selling extremely well since it launched last week, so we doubt Kate's necklace will hang around for long. Add it to basket while you still can.
