The Queen of Spain was in Santiago de Compostela today for the Red Cross & Red Crescent World Day ceremony.
Each year, on 8th May, 189 countries mark the anniversary of the birth of Henry Dunant, founder of the humanitarian organization.
The event serves to highlight the importance of the staff and volunteers of these two organizations, which save lives and assist vulnerable communities worldwide. The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent is the largest humanitarian network in the world.
Letizia looked smart and polished in her Hugo Boss tweed skirt suit which she first wore for the World Rare Disease Day ceremony in March. She later wore the jacket separately to a disability conference in April.
The set includes the BOSS 'Keili Jacket (£380 - sold out) and the matching BOSS 'Meili' Skirt (£169 - sold out). Both pieces are tailored from rich Italian tweed and feature sleek leather piping which gives the classic suit an edgier look.
Today she teamed it with a new short-sleeve top also from the German brand. It features a scoop neckline and shutter pleat front.
Letizia paired the look with Carolina Herrera accessories. She brought back her beloved black patent and suede pumps from the designer's Fall-Winter 2014 collection, and the black 'Astrud' clutch bag.
She finished the ensemble with her ruby and diamond dangle earrings whose provenance remain unknown.
Here's a look back at Letizia's previous looks for this annual event. What's your verdict on today's outfit?

That's so cool, but it's a shame you missed out on seeing her. Hopefully you will get another chance x

Hurrah! This is Letizia at her classic best. It is so much more appropriate and so much more flattering than the leather skirt and geometric top, in which we saw her last. The new blouse goes well with this suit. Hope she continues along this line.

Letizia can wear this suit as often as she likes as far as I'm concerned - it's just gorgeous. I love the leather piping and am happy that only a touch of frayed edging is used on the jacket. The frayed thing has become a cliché by now but used with discretion on the raised pockets like this gives it credibility, and I don't mind a bit that it mostly disappears under the arms. I think the blouse is very pretty but too much pleating against the tweed pattern. The previous blouse was better. Overall it's still classic, polished Letizia and a joy as always to see
