- Is Nicola Sturgeon after Angela Merkel's crown? SNP leader goes on colour parade!
Nicola Sturgeon has been described as many things during her time in politics - and this summer she's gunning for a new title.
The 44-year-old SNP minister is giving Angela Merkel a run for her money in the colourful clothing stakes.
Angela - the Chancellor of Germany - hit the big time, in terms of fashion, back in 2010 when a Dutch graphic designer made her outfits into a rainbow.
Renowned around the world for her tough-nut stance on the EU, it would seem there's a softer side to Angela our Nicola is trying to emulate.
The Scot has been pictured wearing almost every colour of the rainbow apart from YELLOW -- her own party's colour.
She frequently wears brightly coloured fitted dresses and jackets for public occasions and she famously donned traditional tartan jackets and tartan high heels for her party conferences.
But the leader of the Scottish National Party has never worn a mix of yellow and black to nail her party colours to the mast.
The pictures come as it's revealed Britains spend less than £50 prepping for their 'bikini bodies'.
It remains to be seen if Noortje van Eekelen, the designer who put together Angela's brightly-coloured montage, will be as interested in Scottish Nicola's array of clothing.
Speaking at the time of creating his masterpiece, van Eekelen explained: "In picking the criteria for different collections I intuitively tried to create a contrast, showing on the one hand the people responsible for the obscure financial manipulations that led us to the situation that we're in with the Euro.
"The other some of the more silly or spectacular aspects of how our politicians are trying to fix our currently broken system."
Nicola certainly enjoys a brightly coloured outfit - could the next be the yellow we're all so desperate to see her in?
We can but hope - but there's always Angela to rely on.
