Today marks the Queen's 91st birthday. And yes, this is just the first celebration, as she will celebrate her second official birthday on June 10.

Queen Elizabeth II has become something of a fashion icon, with her signature style defined by bold primary colours and pearl necklaces, always teamed with the classic black court heel.

We all know that she isn't afraid to inject some rainbow brights into wardrobe (think fuschias, emerald greens and the occasional saffron), yet Her Majesty always looks so elegantly poised and every inch of the model of royal decorum.

To mark this joyous occasion we have rounded up Her Royal Highness' most stylish ensembles throughout the ages - trust us, when we say there were a lot to choose from...

Happy Birthday Queen Elizabeth II...
