Kate looked as chic as ever in a delightful tonal outfit as she and Prince William visited Clitheroe Community Hospital in North Lancashire on Thursday. Dressing to perfection, she chose to recycle her limited edition cashmere wool camel coat from Massimo Dutti, which she layered over an elegant camel-coloured roll neck - and did you notice her pretty earrings?

The pastel pink accessories are another affordable buy from Missoma London, one of the royal's favourite jewellery brands – and in fact, the beautiful gemstone that adorns the drop earrings bears a special significance.

The Missoma website reads: "Our Rhodochrosite Pyramid Hoops feature a heart-based healing crystal that radiates love, compassion and all-around good vibes, suspended from a textured gold vermeil hoop."

Rhodochrosite is also known as the 'Stone of the compassionate heart', reflecting healing from heartbreak or loss.

Since Kate and many other royals often carefully choose the clothing and accessories they wear to reflect a certain message, we wouldn't be surprised if the Duchess had opted to wear these special earrings to promote positivity and love following the coronavirus crisis in the UK.
