Earlier this week she wore a priceless tiara loaned to her by the Queen.
Tonight, however, the Duchess of Cambridge was back to the High Street, using a £19.99 fake crystal necklace from clothing chain Zara to 'bling up' her couture cream designer dress.
The royal sported the eye-catching piece of costume jewellery at a royal film premiere in London to liven up her Roland Mouret gown, the second time she has worn the bespoke creation in public.

Although Kensington Palace was not in a position to confirm it, there was little doubt the Duchess was wearing the 'sparkly bead necklace' still listed on the Zara website tonight by fashion watchers including website Whatkatewore.com.
The sparkling accessory features three rows of glass beads set in zinc and linked together like chainmail.

Their four-month-old son, Prince George, remained home at Kensington Palace.
Kate braved the freezing temperatures with a thigh-high slit in her gown. Her hair was swept back in a sleek ponytail with volume at the crown to show off her dramatic neckline to best effect.
The evening was marked by the sad news of Mandela's death, which was announced as the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and the former South African president's daughter, Zindzi Mandela, sat down to watch the screening of Long Walk To Freedom, the movie based on his autobiography.
William and Kate were informed of his death discreetly by an aide shortly before the end of the film.
