North West Gifts Mom Kim Kardashian an Unusual Diamond Necklace for Her 44th Birthday
Kim Kardashian is taking a page out of Princess Diana‘s book.
The Kardashians star had her own princess moment on Nov. 2, rocking a vintage Garrard cross pendant once worn by the late royal to the LACMA Art+Film Gala in Los Angeles.
But unlike Diana—who famously paired necklace with a Victorian-style velvet gown designed by Catherine Walker during a 1987 charity event—Kim put her own sexy spin on the bauble by wearing it with a plunging white gown from Gucci.
Instead of having the pendant on a long chain, the 44-year-old made it into a shorter piece that sat on her bare chest. She completed the look with a large pearl choker, as well as short diamond necklaces.
Kim bought the pendant, which features square-cut amethysts and circular-cut diamonds totaling at 5.25 carats, in 2023 at Sotheby’s auction. Per the fine arts company, she paid a whopping $197,453—more than double its pre-auction estimate—for the piece of jewelry.
