Being the Queen of the United Kingdom, based in a city like London, Queen Elizabeth quite naturally has to deal with rain. A lot of rain. Therefore it’s not unusual to see her out and about on official duties, braving the drizzle under an umbrella with her gracious nature and a smile.

But have you ever noticed that her umbrella and outfits almost always match? Since 1993, the Queen has used her preferred style of umbrella, the classic birdcage design made by Fulton. Naturally, being who she is, Queen Elizabeth gets hers custom made in a variety of shades, so they blend in perfectly with her vast array of outfits and hats.

It’s the piece of fashion inspiration we never knew we needed, especially with winter approaching! Scroll down below to check out old Queenie’s rockin’ rain style for yourself, and let us know what you think in the comments!

    How did people not know that? She has the most curated wardrobe in the world and when she goes out, everything is perfect.

    did you know the Queen has weights sewn into the bottom of her outfits so a stray gust of wind wont embarass her (Kate took note). They also dont press right to the hems in order that outfits and hemlines can be altered when needed

    And I notice she always carries a basic black handbag, and wears sensible black shoes.

    I find it absolutely charming that her umbrellas always match her outfits.

    I think it is kind of sweet - her holding her own umbrella with a grip of steel - rather than allow some fawning Courtier to follow 2 steps behind trying to shelter her - you really need to hold your own umbrella to get maximum shelter

    It would be a bit awkward anyway, because the Queen is so petite.

    She is entitled to lots of umbrellas - must have a whole cupboard full

    She's the Queen, if she wants matching brollies then who's going to argue?
