Sorry Rachel. I paste the definition on the Cambridge Online Dictionary:

tiara
noun [C]
a piece of metal in the shape of half a circle decorated with jewels which is worn on the head by a woman, esp. a queen, etc., at very formal social occasions .


In Spanish, in addition to the above meanings, it also makes reference to the papal crown.
