Queen Elizabeth II, who celebrates her diamond wedding anniversary this month, has been named one of the world’s most glamorous women by British Vogue magazine.
The December issue includes the 81-year-old monarch on its 50-name “Definitive List of Today’s Glamorous Women,” calling her “as glamorous in her brogues and headscarf in Balmoral as she is wearing the crown jewels.”
The queen favors conservative but often brightly colored ensembles for her public appearances, accessorized with sensible shoes and handbags.
Vogue noted that glamour “is about how you wear something, not about what you wear. You can’t buy glamour, and you can’t fake it.”
Also on the list: Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, Claudia Schiffer, Zadie Smith and Helen Mirren, who played the British monarch in the Oscar-winning film “The Queen.” (via Associated Press)

She is a very regal and glamorous woman so I’m not surprised to see her on the list. She has poved to people that you don’t have to go crazy with surgery, botox to look beautiful and elegant. Aging gracfully is the key.
She deserves to have a place on the list. She is beautiful and elegant, even at 81.
