Kim Kardashian is channeling her inner royalty!
On Saturday, the reality star stepped out in Princess Diana‘s former vintage Garrard cross pendant known as the “Attallah Cross.” Kim bought the bold piece of jewelry last year when Sotheby’s auctioned it off. The company announced she spent $197,453 on the 5.25-carat bling. Instead of keeping it safe in her collection, Kimmy Kates is wearing it proudly!

The model made an appearance at the LACMA Art+Film Gala in Los Angeles this weekend, where she paired the necklace with a very revealing white gown from Gucci. She also modified the pendant — rocking it on a short pearl necklace so the cross would rest on her chest rather than having it hang low by her torso as Diana did in 1987 when she wore the piece to a charity event. The mother of four also sported a large pearl choker and other diamond necklaces. Check it out:
Stunning!
For comparison, here’s how Prince William and Harry‘s mother wore the piece back in the day:
Totally different styles but it looks great on them both!
