Queen Elizabeth II Dons Hat & Scarf Combo In Abu Dhabi (PHOTOS)

Queen Elizabeth II visited the Sheikh Zayed Mosque in Abu Dhabi on Wednesday wearing a hat-and-scarf combo.

While we've seen the Queen sport countless headpieces and the occasional babushka-style scarf, we're digging this configuration. It's modest, easy to assemble, great for inclement weather, vaguely beekeeper-esque...and it's probably only a matter of time before the Elizabeth Scarf Hat hits Urban Outfitters.

Check out pictures of the Queen's style statement:

Wow, she looks really pissed-off. Imagine that coming at you at night.

I love the British - except when the snottier ones open their mouths and sneer at people.

It looks a little thrown together.

Five minutes later she grabbed a plastic pumpkin and started getting diamond and ruby treats from the oil bazillionaires.

I think the proper term is gazillionaires, not that I'm nit-picking.

She's a Muslim!!!

Oh, my bad.

Most exciting she's ever looked!

Looks Medieval, Very Costumey.

Her Majesty can do things like this, and not have to worry about the British media saying "Is The Queen A Muslim?"

You make an excellent point! However, in America there are those that still might try to make such a point no matter how ridiculous it may be.

What a perfect outfit for a female pope.

Very fitting, as she is the Head of the Church of England and Defender of the Faith.

She's take the pope in the first round.

This is what one does if they respect the religion and laws of the country they visit. I commend her for a terrific display of mutual respect. Remember how the conservatives went nuts at the possibility of President Obama donning a particular type of hat to visit the Gold Temple in India, saying it proved he was a secret Muslim? What tripe! It is good to see leaders show respect and being examples of how that respect can become bridges to understanding. Bravo to the Queen!

Same adherence to protocol as when she visits the Vatican and meets the pope:

I think Jackie Kennedy wore something similar on her papal visit.

We have a long and proud tradition of giving free rein to the nutters and extremists among us. It is what makes us Americans, instead of Brits, or Canadians.

That outfit cries for a pectoral cross, but of course not in Abu Dhabi.

I love the Queen. She just does what she does, and to heck with you commoners.

The Queen of England is very dignified.

I thought it was a pretty Pope.
