MI5 Visit and Church at Windsor
The Queen visited MI5, Britain's domestic security agency, at Thames House in London.
I'll never call this brooch a personal favorite, but it's a really nice pick here. Just a touch of ruby but not enough to clash a bright red with the darker coat. And it's one we didn't see at all last year.
Three Strand Pearl Necklace
February 23: The Queen attended church at the Royal Chapel of All Saints, Windsor Park.
This one looks pretty dark in photos, but it will be the first appearance for the year of the pink sapphire, just in a tricky shot.

Hard to tell as ever, but I'm going with the Kent Amethyst here.

The Queen missed church on Sunday because of "public safety concerns due to high winds" in the area, so her Sandringham break closes out with one appearance absent a brooch and one too bundled up to tell.

For Her Maj's first official public engagement of 2020, we've got texture, we've got color, we've got pattern - and we've even got the return of Queen Victoria's Bow Brooch! This brooch is usually a popular choice but has fallen off the radar recently, appearing just once in 2019.

Church in Norfolk
The Queen attended church at West Newton, Norfolk, near the Sandringham estate.
The Sapphire Jubilee Snowflake had three appearances last year and I don't know about you, but I could definitely do with more of it this year.
