Royal style: the Queen of Spain reigns in the fashion games

[QueenOfTheAndals]

Previous thread, usual rules.

The RCMP uniform is great, but beaten I think by the Italian Carabinieri with its sweeping cloak and wonderful hat (lucerna) with scarlet plume.

Those intricate up-does are lovely, especially when wearing a hat. I’m never keen on masses of floaty hair with a hat stuck on top, an old fashioned view I know!

The Italian police uniform designed by Armani, the caribinieri by Valentino.

We've not seen Leti for a little while but she's popped up today in this green trouser suit. I like the satin shell top a lot; she looks so glam and sleek. Not sure if the jacket is a tiny bit on the big/long side?

Agree @motherofpearl
A great outfit, paired with glossy hair and lips. Kate needs to wear a trouser suit (not wide fit or skinny leg trousers, rather Pakistan trouser width).
Both the jacket and trousers are too long (and she's 5'7" and in high heels!)

CPV must be furious that Letizia got to that green trouser suit first!

That's a very 90s looking jacket on Leti, I used to wear jackets like that when I was that thin started teaching

On consideration, are the Swiss Guard police or sort of army? I can't imagine what it would be like to constantly have a protection person. They'd need loads of clothes to fit in with different activities too.

I think Leti’s trousers are fab and a great length. That is the length I wear my trousers. Is that bad??

The Swiss Guard are a military unit.

I am not a fan of the green trousersuit -but I am not a fan of coloured trouser suits generally.

Leti looks fab, even though I'm not keen on the jacket I always think she looks really stylish. That is the kind of sleek hair Kate should go for - not mega different to what she has now but a bit straighter and shorter.

Megan can carry off any updo can't she? She has such a lovely face. Most people can't get away with having all their hair pulled back but she still looks beautiful.

Poor Mary I looks like Denis Waterman!

Meghan is extremely pretty. My fave up do of hers is the wedding evening party - she looked perfect that night!

I wonder with Meghan if her natural sense of style got a bit diluted by the protocols etc as to me she never looked as good as she did just before the wedding really.

I know I say not to compare the two and am now going to do so . . . But I think Meghan genuinely enjoys fashion and clothes in a way that Kate just doesn't. I mean Kate has model proportions but so often just looks meh. Meghan when left to her own devices looks fab but once in the RF just seemed to lose her own sense of style.

Maybe they both need to get divorced in order to get the really good fashion [I don't mean that really]

Another Leti look:
Dress is Maje. I'm not always a fan of satin but I think she pulls it off.

It's a very Kate style dress and Kate style hair, Leti is replikating for us!

It is a very Kate look! I like that satin dress on her.

Leti’s trouser suit is Hugo Boss. Might I remind you that CPV only wears bloody Rodebjer 😉 @QueenOfTheAndals

Poor Mary I looks like Denis Waterman! she does too @StCharlotte!

Agree Meg's messy buns are gorgeous. She really suits them. Less so the 'sock bun' in the bottom right pic.

Not sure we'll see old Megsie if the blinds are correct. They're saying she won't show. We shall await to see. I'd love her to repeat the pencil skirt, pump and waterfall jacket combo from her last trip. That's my favourite look in her ever.

I wish Kate would wear a pony tail like this. Yesterday's looked like a bad film wig.

Isn't that a croydon facelift?

Kensington surely??

Well if it's good enough for CPV!

It is a bit tight at the front I grant you, but I think the "placement" is nicer.

I borrowed a book about fashion and there was a photo of a poster from erm can’t remember and am not home atm but Stockholm fashion week or something years ago and a young CPV was on it. Looking very different and fashun.

I like this kind of ponytail on Kate, I can't stand those low ones that are all pouffey on the top.
