A lucky little girl was plucked out of the crowd to become a princess for the day - and present a bouquet to the Queen.
Evie Hayden, four, from Kent, waited for an hour today to present her posy to the monarch on her last public engagement before Christmas, despite temperatures hovering just above freezing.
And she was rewarded by being plucked out of the crowd to meet the sovereign personally.
The Queen was seen smiling as she accepted the flowers after arriving at the Honourable Society of Lincoln's Inn in London on Thursday.
The royal, 92, put on a vibrant display in a coordinated fuchsia ensemble, smiling as she greeted members of the society of barristers.
Prince Andrew, 58, was seen arriving alongside his mother as they made their way along the red carpet to the large estate of historic buildings in central London, which houses the society.

Little Evie, who was accompanied by her mother, Michelle, 34, had missed nursery to travel up to London and executed her task beautifully.
But she said afterwards that all she could think about was how ‘freezing’ she was in her pretty pink coat and dress.
‘I was sooooo cold,’ she said, her teeth chattering.
‘We almost didn’t make it as there were missed trains and a bit of a fall- there’s mud on her tights - but what an incredible experience,’ Michelle, whose husband Steven works nearby, said.
The Queen, accompanied by her son, the Duke of York, was visiting The Honourable Society of Lincoln’s Inn in London to officially open its new £20 million Ashworth Centre, built underneath the historic institution.
The Inn, which holds the earliest records of any of the four Inns of Court dating from 1422, houses a number of barristers’ chambers and solicitors’ offices, mainly specialising in chancery.

The Queen, who last visited in 1951, arrived with her son who holds the honorary position of a ‘Royal Bencher’ at the Inn.
She was wearing a Stewart Parvin magenta coat and magenta fuchsia dress it’s a hat by Rachel Trevor Morgan. Her brooch was a ruby gold diamond spray.
The Queen was seen with her trademark handbag, a patent design by Launer, and has a range of bags by the brand.
The structured bags cost between £1,200 and £2,100, and the Queen is estimated to own around 200 Launer pieces in an understated black leather or patent.
Known for its iconic 'twisted rope' emblem, Launer (launer.com) was established in 1941 and awarded a Royal Warrant after supplying with Queen with leather good since 1968.
A top seller in Selfridges and Fortnum & Mason and a favourite among society ladies, the company recorded a sale increase of over 400 per cent in the past four years on its website.
Working her signature style, the Queen looked stylish in a deep pink coat embellished with gold buttons and adorned with a brooch
Coordinating the look, the royal teamed the look with a matching hat adorned with red feathers, and a dress that reached just below the knees
The Queen viewed the stunning new underground teaching facility for students and newly qualified barristers attached to the Inn.
‘It’s amazing,’ she told the Treasurer, The Right Honourable Lord Justice Patten, who was guiding her around.
After meeting people involved in the building’s construction, as well as students, scholars and staff from the Education department, the Queen unveiled an inscription to mark the official opening of the new facility.
The Royal Party then moved to the historic Great Hall to dedicate it after an extensive refurbishment.
On her way the Queen viewed a painting of Queen Victoria opening the Great Hall (or New Hall) as it was then known ) in 1845, as well as a modern portrait of her sister, Princess Margaret, herself a former Royal Bencher, painted by Bryan Organ in 1970, which she looked slightly bemused at.
The ensemble was completed with a pearl necklace and earrings, and acccessorised with globes and her favourite Lautner handbag

She also signed ‘The Golden Book, whose first royal signatures were King Charles II and the future King James II when they visited in 1672, as well as Queen Victoria and Prince Albert.
Built in 1845, the Great Hall is the physical and symbolic centrepiece of the Inn.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
