The princess stepped out in a jewel-toned Akris gown, which was a stark contrast to the classic white Armani dress she wore just last month during their lavish royal wedding. Charlene kept her hair pulled back and makeup simple to complement the stunning custom-made Van Cleef & Arpels piece she wore around her neck.

It was reportedly designed to evoke memories of the ocean and is composed of 88 round diamonds, weighing in at over 44 total carats, with 10 pear-shaped diamonds and 359 sapphires!

Princess Charlene and Prince Albert made out today in South Africa, putting their newlywed love on display for the world less than a week after their Monaco royal wedding. Charlene and Albert got dressed up for a dinner party they're hosting tonight in Durban. Feeling less like a honeymoon and more like a state visit, the royal couple also met with Jacob Zuma, the president of Charlene's home country South Africa, and his wife for lunch yesterday.

After marrying with more than 2 billion people watching, Prince William and Kate Middleton made sure to take a very private honeymoon — and not a picture of their time in the Seychelles has leaked to the public. In fact, we haven't even seen the duke and duchess kiss since they did it twice on the Buckingham Palace balcony!

Of course, William is still second in line to the British throne, while Albert is a sitting monarch with more responsibilities. Royal duties or not, are you surprised Charlene and Albert are making public appearances so soon?
