Queen Elizabeth during a visit to the Royal Commonwealth Society in London on November 14, 2012 - a great strong colour, she looked wonderful again!

That color looks magnificent on Her Majesty. I love the collar of the coat and the hat.

This a bit disco-ish for Her Majesty. It reminds me of a dress Princess Diana had in the 80's.

I think HM looks great tonight. She's literally sparkling. I'm just glad it's not white, which has become her staple for eveningwear over the last few years.

I'm not sure about this dress. While it's definitely festive enough for an evening occasion, I think it doesn't really suit Her Majesty. It's a bit too flashy, and rather overwhelming. However, I do give her props for wearing heels.

In the 2nd picture she looks as delighted as if she'd never gotten a gazzilion bouquets in her life!

Love her outfit. Beautiful colour, great design of the coat with the soft collar. Love the broach and the pearls.

Maybe it is one of Diana's old ones.

Gosh, what a wonderful gown! I have a feeling this gown is made from some of the material found stored away in Buckingham Palace as the design look like it comes from the 60's.

Anyone else wonder if the full-on beading is harkening back to the heavy embroidery of her wedding gown? More modern, of course, but the colors and the intricacy seem suggestive to me, which I find very sweet.

The Queen looked great in the gown. Her and Diana used to wear very similar patterns back in the day but I'm not sure of this one. I have read that The Queen have lots of old fabrics and it's often re-applied to her new wardrobe.
