DISCLAIMER: The following Kate Middleton photo is 100% authentic. We do not believe in pathetic photoshopping attempts at publicity.

The gorgeous The Duchess of Cambridge kicked off a series of Summer Olympic-themed royal events yesterday by donning an electric-blue crepe dress by Stella McCartney, who’s been named the designer of the official British uniforms for the upcoming worldwide event.

The outfit was adorned by a necklace that sources confirm to People is from Middleton’s “personal collection.” It’s comprised of a large gold ring forming a pendant, with four other rings along the chain – and we hear it’s valued at $78,000.

That figure, of course, is nothing compared to what some photographer reportedly earned from snapping this Kate Middleton bikini picture.

What do you think of the necklace?
