Absolutely gorgeous! I loved the look on the day of the Royal Wedding last year, and still love it today. Her Majesty wears that shade of yellow quite well.

What a beautiful powder blue on her; I love the hat and what I can see of her print dress. Is that her Iris brooch?

It's the Rhodesian Flame Lily Brooch.
The Queen looks beautiful.

With the number of the brooches the Queen has? Not a chance! 
Incidentally (and sorry for being off topic), the Queen wore the Brigade of Guards brooch for the Trooping the Colour.

Don't you know I count brooches instead of sheep to get to sleep? I'm usually out like a light by 100!

Even with a sore eye Her Majesty looked flawless! I love the shade of blue of the coat and the fabric looked beautiful. The hat was very elegant. And the dress underneath looked very pretty.

Another great look. The light blue is so becoming on Her Majesty. I love the hat and the brooch too. Thank you for identifying it (as well as the one from Trooping the Colour), Artemisia  .

I agree the Queen looks lovely in all her outfits lately but there is one thing that niggles me. She is always beautifully co-ordinated but so often teams her light summery coloured outfits with black shoes and a black bag, surely lighter accessories would look better? She nearly always wears light gloves so why the black shoes and bag?  I first noticed this on her visit to Australia last year where she wore a number of lovely outfits which (IMO) were slightly spoiled by the black accessories. She doesn't always have the black shoes and bag but most of the time she does (for example she had light shoes and bag with her lovely yellow outfit at William's wedding). Any thoughts

The Queen has her signature black shoes and black Launer handbag. They're here to stay.
Royal Ascot Day One: wearing Stewart Parvin, Rachel Trevor Morgan hat and the Aqaumarine Brooch.

I just love today's Ascot outfit (or at least, what I can see of it).
The colour of Her Majesty's suit is amazing, the hat is very pretty, and that brooch is in my Top 10 all-time favourites of the Queen.

Her Majesty looks stunning. I love the shade of blue, as well as the hat and brooch.

HM looks amazing (as usual), another quite brilliant colour on her and the Aquamarine Brooch is one of my favourites.

I must say that I always prefer Queen Elizabeth in the more sophisticated lines and sharper tailoring of Stewart Parvin's designs - the outfits made by Angela Kelly tend to be on the fussier side with a more shapeless silhouette and frequently make her appear rather stodgy.
Dislike the hat with it crochet layer all over though, not exactly elegant.
