It's finally time for us to buy Kate Middleton's exact earrings we've admired for years

Catherine, Princess of Wales during a visit to Carrickfergus on October 06, 2022.

The Princess of Wales’s exact earrings have been on our wish-list for so long and it’s finally time to buy them as they’re in the sale.

We make it our mission each year to find the best Black Friday jewellery deals so we can pick up some precious pieces as a special gift for a loved-one… or a treat for ourselves. So imagine our delight when we discovered a pair of the Princess of Wales’s beautiful hoop earrings in the sale - for less than £80! So much of the magnificent jewellery that Kate wears to formal occasions is jewel-encrusted and worn by generations of royals, but her everyday picks are far more low-key and Missoma is one of her go-to brands.

Given she champions the best British clothing brands, it’s no surprise that she loves this British jewellery company too and Kate’s Mini Pyramid Charm Hoops are a favourite. Usually priced at £98, they’re now £78.40 for Black Friday and we’ve officially added them to our basket.

These gorgeous earrings are made from 18ct gold plated vermeil on sterling silver, with the charm made from 18ct gold plated brass. The drop detail is a rhodochrosite stone in a soft rose-pink colour that is so subtle and easy to wear. Rhodochrosite is known as a symbol of love and we - like the Princess of Wales - are certainly in love with their versatility and understated glamour.

Kate’s Missoma earrings are easy to wear day-to-day as they’re small and they add a touch of shimmer but not the full-on sparkle that her diamond earrings would bring. The drops are suspended from minimal hoops with a pyramid design and if these handcrafted earrings weren’t already fabulous enough you can also detach the charms to wear them just as hoops.

A pair of these earrings is something that will last you for many years and you’d get so much wear out of, styled with your winter capsule wardrobe staples. The discount has made them even more tempting and they’d make a lovely present as well as a treat for yourself. The Princess of Wales has worn hers on multiple occasions and in certain lights they look almost white (the Mini Pyramid hoops do also come in a rainbow moonstone white version).

She was seen wearing them last November when she visited Sebby’s Corner - an organisation that was formed in 2021 and which provides services to support vulnerable families across London and the Home Counties. On this occasion Kate wore a chocolate brown ribbed roll neck jumper tucked into a matching suede midi skirt, with brown knee high boots and a chestnut-toned belted coat.

The soft pink and gold earrings finished off her outfit perfectly and echoed its warm tones. However, this colourway also works with cooler toned outfits - as Kate proved when she wore her Missoma Mini Pyramid Charm Hoops with a baby blue longline coat and blouse in Northern Ireland back in October 2022.

If you’re feeling especially inspired by Her Royal Highness’ earring choices then these aren’t the only Missoma earrings she owns. Kate has also worn the Zenyu Chandelier earrings before and these are down from £139 to £97.30. Like the other hoops, they can be worn with or without the charm and the future Queen stepped out in these when she attended the 2021 Royal Variety Performance and wore them with her iconic green sequin Jenny Packham dress.
