        Queen Elizabeth II has long been turning heads with her bright neon-colored wardrobe. While she has always had an impeccable sense of style throughout her years in Buckingham Palace, there’s more to her colorful attire and purses than meets the eye. Instead of sporting plain old boring beige, the Queen wears vivid clothing that will ensure her unmistakable visibility at public events, especially important given her small stature. Her daughter-in-law Sophie, Countess of Wessex, explained in the documentary The Queen at 90, “She needs to stand out for people to be able to say, ‘I saw the Queen.’” It gives a new meaning to her famous remark, “I have to be seen to be believed.” Her bold neon green outfit on her 90th birthday in 2016 drew more attention than usual because of its striking similarity to green screens used in filmmaking, and the internet had a field day.

        Queen Elizabeth II is also never seen without her signature Launer purse. With a collection of over 200 of them, the Queen uses her handbags to send secret coded messages to her staff. Depending on where it is placed, the bag can help her get out of conversations with whomever she’s talking to. If she switches her bag from her left arm to her right arm, it means she would like to wrap things up within five minutes. If her bag is placed on the table during dinner, it means the event should end shortly. And if her bag is placed on the floor, it means she needs to escape from an uncomfortable situation immediately. The contents of the Queen’s bag, however, are not that different from what women usually carry: reading glasses, mints, a mirror, lipstick, and sometimes a camera.
