The latest debut to dazzle royal watchers is the Queen's stylish – and brand new – walking aid just in time for the special days ahead.

Her Majesty was seen opting out of her usual staghorn walking stick, as she stood on the balcony looking over the Mall alongside her cousin Prince Edward, Duke of Kent ahead of the Trooping the Colour.

In light of the royal's recent mobility issues, she has been often spotted paying tribute to her late husband Prince Phillip by using his own walking stick, which consists of dark wood with a marble handle.
