ROYALS

Does THIS mean the Queen has changed her taste in clothes?

Her Majesty has stepped out in pale mint

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II has stepped out in a pastel dress for the second time in a week – leaving royal watchers wondering whether she’s gone off her usual vivid hues. 

“Looks like she’s gone for mint green on this occasion,’ fashion expert Donny Galella told New Idea.

“She wears a lot of brights normally.”

Indeed, the Queen is most often associated with wearing bright bold colours – but her recent outfit choices have displayed a penchant for softer shades. 

On Oct. 16 the Queen held an audience at Buckingham Palace. There she was photographed greeting members of the community wearing a dress in a pale mint.

Those who watched Princess Eugenie’s wedding to Jack Brooksbank on Oct. 12 will recall the Queen also wore a pastel colour to the happy occasion.

At that event, the Queen wore an egg-shell blue ensemble by designer Angela Kelly.

The pale colours chosen by the Queen on her recent outings are in stark contrast to the wedding of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry.

For that occasion, Queen Elizabeth memorable wore a lime green outfit.
