I think for an elderly gentleman of quite short stature and almost 73 years of age, the Irish President looks very smart indeed.

It's quite unusual to see HM being taller than someone!

Here's a lovely gallery
Many pictures of HM, from her childhood right up to her 88th birthday. I vaguely remember thinking she was dowdy at one point (probably when I was a teenager), but wowsers! she looks very stylish at every stage in these pictures.
Her hat in picture 13 is somewhat reminiscent of Princess Beatrice's famous wedding hat!

One more gallery of the Fashion Queen
The Queen's most iconic looks as she celebrates her 88th birthday | Mail Online
I noticed that one of the white suits she wears (visiting the DoE in hospital) has the 'unfinished' trim that Catherine has on several of her suits. And be sure to check out the sheepish smirk on Charles' face during his investment as PoW.

I love the Queen, but this is how to NOT do scallops. And I can't decide if the brooch saves it or makes it worse.

Oh, I didn't see that. But I still like the skirt, and the color.

Oh dear. This is definitely not one of HM's better looks. Even the beautiful brooch cannot save this.

I like the colour (HM always manages to pull off blues and turquoises IMO) but that's about it. Like others here, I'm not the biggest fan of the scallop detailing.

Of course, she is gorgeous and quite spectacular.
But the Queen's dressers need to up their game. It makes my skin crawl to see an elegant lady, wearing strapped shoes when the closing strap curls out!

Such a small, insignificant thing to say about HM. She always looks impeccable when in full formal regalia.

Her Majesty looks every bit the Queen that she in full regalia.

I absolutely loved Her Majesty's outfit from when she unveiled the plaque in honour of the 20th anniversary of the opening of the Eurotunnel. So effortlessly beautiful.

New and fresh-looking. Black gloves and bag are a bit dark, but that's HM's look. :)

I'm liking this look. It's nice to see something different on her. She looks lovely.

 Oh yes, she does indeed look very special today. I really love the entire outfit on her and that hat, I want that hat! And being Queen for as long as she has been and as graced with a long life, she is entitled to wear whatever she wants and she always looks like a Queen to me!

All of her clothes for this trip have been very pretty, and the spring green today was very eye-catching. Leaf green? Not sure how to describe the color.
