Siblings often squabble over clothing, shoes and accessories. Many times they will raid each other’s closet or swap fashion favorites. Even royals have wardrobe wars with their nearest and dearest. And Princess Kate and her younger sister Pippa Middleton are no exception to familial fashion struggles. Both British beauties are inclined to wear the same dresses, carry the same bags and accessorize with the same baubles as their sister.
Known for coveting many of the same designer clothing brands like Whistles, Sandro, Hobbs and Zara, these two fashionistas have an equal affection for many of the same jewelry designers. Both ladies are often found in budget friendly Accessorize chandelier earrings and can’t resist an Asprey Pendant necklace (Pippa owns the jewelry maker’s Swirl Pendant necklace while Kate was gifted the Daisy Heritage diamond white gold floral necklace). Plus, they each own starry pieces from London based fine-jeweler Robinson Pelham and the exact same colorful citrine Eden flower earrings by Kiki McDonough.
Not to mention that both Middleton ladies are often clad in similar delicate chain necklaces from Tiffany & Co and can’t resist shiny siren earrings from Monica Vinader (Kate loves the brand’s gold and green bezel set drop earrings).
While we may never see Kate in a signet ring like her younger sibling Philippa or wearing an Argent of London peapod pearl necklace, Cartier Love bracelet or funky design from Johanna Simonds, we’re still likely to see these comely siblings overlap in their jewelry favorites.
Here are 4 Times Kate Middleton Wore the Same Jewelry as her Sister:
1. Tiffany and Co Elsa Peretti Necklace
Kate and Pippa both enjoy cooking, arts and fitness, so it’s no great surprise they also love the same jewelry designs. Both women have a Tiffany & Co Elsa Peretti Diamonds by the Yard necklace in their jewelry box.
2. Cartier Watches
Pippa Middleton’s Cartier Montre Balloon Bleu 36mm watch in rose gold costs around $18,100 while sister Kate has a timepiece worth just over $6,000. Still, the princess might have the last laugh in this sisterly showdown as her stainless steel wrist accessory has blue hands which perfectly coordinates with her stunning sapphire engagement ring.
3. Kiki McDonough Eden Blue Topaz Necklace
Both Middleton ladies love their candy colored gemstones from British fine jeweler Kiki McDonough. Even mother Carole Middleton owns the same ‘Eden’ 18 carat white gold necklace with a blue topaz pendant flower as her daughters.
4. Robinson Pelham
Not to be outdone by her sister who married a prince in 2011 at Westminster Abbey in front of an audience of politicians, royals and other VIPs, Pippa Middleton said ‘I do’ in her own bridal tiara. The ‘Celebrate’ author and socialite wore a Robinson Pelham Maidenhair Fern Tiara to wed James Matthews in 2017. And Kate and Pippa both donned diamond earrings from the jeweler for their nuptials (Kate’s were acorn themed while Pippa’s were floral). Plus, both women have appeared in Pelham’s Tsar Star earrings.
