The Queen has just become the longest reigning UK monarch, so to celebrate her 63rd year on the throne, we take a look at the style lessons we’ve learned from Her Majesty herself
1. Block your outfit like Lizzie
Can anyone rock a bold block-coloured outfit quite like the Queen? From her favourite blues to yellows and pinks, the Queen always looks ever so chic in her bright outfits. By teaming her colourful dresses with a matching hat and overcoat she always makes a statement. And she always gets it right. Steal Her Majesty’s style and go bold from head to toe in a single hue.
2. Make pearls your crown jewels
Ditch your statement jewellery and take style cues from the Queen with a set of pearls. Pearls are a staple in the Queen’s everyday wardrobe and they complement her bold bright outfits without being overpowering. Opt for a triple strand pearl necklace for subtle daytime glam – you can’t go wrong!
3. Add interest with a brooch
If pearls are too safe for you then stay ahead of the game like the Queen and add interest to your outfit with a brooch. Pin your brooch onto your brightly coloured coat for a truly regal ensemble.
4. Forget the crown for headwear
Whether she’s at a wedding or spending a day at the races, the Queen is always seen sporting a showstopping hat. Make like the Queen and accessorise your outfits with a hat, or try a silk headscarf to pay homage to another one of her iconic looks. Not even the Great British weather can give our lady a bad hair day; Lizzie relies on her trusty silk scarves whenever the weather starts to do it worst.
5. Throw in a matching coat
A well-considered overcoat is everything. The Queen knows this all too well and she opts for a matching overcoat with (nearly) every outfit. There’s only one way to finish of a suitably regal outfit….
