Thank you for your photo !
I do think that Queen Elizabeth II is wearing Princess Marie-Louise pearl and diamond honeycomb bracelet.

Several reasons :
- the diamonds are smaller than in QM's City of London necklace (please compare) ;
- The spaces are wider (PM's bracelet) ;
- 296 connecting "rose" diamonds (QMs necklace) ;
Thanks to a short article by our fellow poster The Royal Watcher, I remarked that the Queen wore a very unusual jewelled Garter insignia (instead of the full Star) while attending a film premiere at the Dominion Theatre in London on 20th October 1969.
I don't think we have ever seen this badge, which looks like the centre of a regular diamond star:
It appears that ladies wore Family orders and Stars, which-even in 1969-was quite exceptionnal.
I hope someone knows more about it...
