Happy Birthday Lizzie! (We can call you that, right?) For 85 years today, the Queen Mum has been a reigning style icon. So what are Her Majesty’s style staples?

Suits in every shade possible⎯and we do mean every shade. Think aqua, bright green, royal blue, purple, bright yellow, camel, magenta, burgundy, and every shade and variant of the rainbow.

Elizabeth loves pearls. Lanvin has provided us with a twist on the classic. ($1,255, net-a-porter.com) The best part of being a royal? All the fun hats and headpieces you have an excuse to wear, like this veiled headband by Maison Michel. ($630, brownsfashion.com)

So what did the Queen do to celebrate? Elizabeth was reported to have been meeting and greeting with Kate‘s parents at the palace just yesterday⎯squashing rumours that they wouldn’t be meeting prior to the nuptials.
