This shade of blue is absolutely beautiful. I do love the lace detail on the hat and coat sleeves. So exquisite!!!

Yes, could be shamrocks and I think some other flowers too. The white detailing is very beautifully made....one wonders if Angela Kelly has been secretly snipping bits of lace off Catherine's wedding dress...."oh, Ma'am, I've sourced some wonderful lace for the wedgwood blue outfit - found yards of it in fact...."

We've had the Duchess effect - now it's the Queen effect! Her Majesty's love of Launer handbags sees sales more than DOUBLE

It is no longer only the Duchess of Cambridge who can cause a frenzied sales boom whenever she appears in public wearing a new dress, carrying a new umbrella or walking a new dog. Kate's grandmother-in-law is now giving the younger royal a run for her money in the fashion department. Queen Elizabeth's beloved handbag designer, Launer London, has seen yet another enormous spike in sales of their elegant, box-shaped bags, after their most loyal patron was photographed carrying several different models during her Diamond Jubilee weekend.

She looks wonderful in this color. She's been wearing so many pretty, bright colors and looks so good in them.

Lovely chartreuse green and gold embroidery, further enhanced by that gorgeous brooch. The fabric of the coat is very nice, too. HM sure looks spiffy these days!

Yet another very lovely colour on HM and I have a thing for the hat. The Queen looked really good today, haven't got a finger to put on it.

The department stores mentioned in the articles only carry the low-end handbags. HM's bags often cost around BPS5,000. Hope all these ladies aren't blowing the food budgets for their families!!

Today's outfit just doesn't do it for me. I think it's the shade of green which reminds me of the colour of a highlighter pen I had at school.

Bad memories of school, EIIR, or that you had to use that highlighter a lot?

No particular bad memories, Baroness, just not a colour I particularly like. One of my friends at school had a tendency to highlight almost everything on her page in a bright green, which seemed a bit counter-productive to me, but HM's outfit brought it to mind.
My school uniform was green, which has rather put me off green in all its shades I must admit  .

Her Majesty looks absolutely lovely in this shade of lime green. I do love the gold lace trim on the collar and hat. Very unusual and it really compliments the outfit.
