​King Felipe and Queen Letizia bade formal goodbyes to Queen Elizabeth and the Duke of Edinburgh at Buckingham Palace this morning.

This was a poignant moment - it's probably the final time we will see Prince Philip on State Visit duties as he is set to retire in the Fall.

For the occasion, the Spanish queen channelled an elegant 1940's style in a satin midi skirt and white surplice neck blouse (currently unidentified).

Embed from Getty Images

Letizia made a sartorial nod to the host nation by stepping out in a skirt by British-born fashion retailer, Topshop. She wore the brand's Pleat Front Prom Skirt (£80) in a chic champagne colourway. The full skirt sits high on the waist with pretty front pleated panels and comes in a midi length. The skirt has sold out at Topshop but is currently available in very limited sizes at Selfridges.

Letizia offset the soft pink hue with merlot accents. On her feet she wore the LODI burgundy suede ankle strap pumps which she recently debuted at the Madrid Book Fair in May.

She carried a fun straw clutch by Spanish brand Suma Cruz who posted a photo of the bag on their Instagram page. It is reportedly a handmade piece especially for the queen.

Following the fond farewells at Buckingham Palace, The King and Queen of Spain continued their final day agenda of the State Visit. They headed to the Francis Crick Institute - a biomedical research centre in London,  where they were greeted by Prince Andrew for a tour of the state-of-the-art facilities.

Their Majesties then headed out of London to Oxford - their final stop of the State Visit. Their tour of Oxford University started with a visit to the Weston Library where the original Spanish manuscripts of the Codex Mendoza, and the first edition of Don Quixote are preserved.

Following lunch at the Divinity School, the final engagement of the State Visit was a reception at Exeter College for Spanish citizens studying and working at the University.

Day 2 of the State Visit to the UK started on a somber note for Queen Letizia. She joined her husband, King Felipe and Prince Harry for a wreath laying on the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Westminster Abbey.

Their Majesties signed the visitors book after touring the Abbey including a stop at the grave of Eleanor of Castile - one of the many medieval royals from Spain.

Then it was off to the Spanish Ambassador's residence for a reception with Spanish expats.

Queen Letizia stepped out today in a familiar look.

It is one she has worn on four previous occasions:

2 Jun 2015 - Velazquez exhibition in Paris, France
Picture
18 Sep 2015 - visit to St Augustine, Florida

The outfit consists of the Carolina Herrera Flower Fil Coupe Party Skirt and a navy silk blouse.

She made some subtle changes to the ensemble today, swapping out her usual navy suede Carolina Herrera cross strap sandals for a patent leather version by Magrit. The silhouette of the shoe is based on the Spanish manufacturer's 'Marina' model (shown below), a style Letizia owns in a couple different colourways.

She carried a midnight blue satin pleated clutch bag which she debuted back in 2009 at the Prince of Asturias Awards ceremony.

Charles and Camilla then accompanied them to the Horse Guards Parade for the official welcome by Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II and the Duke of Edinburgh.

All the traditional elements of a State Visit played out including an inspection of the Guard of Honour by King Felipe and Prince Phillip, and a carriage procession along the Mall to Buckingham Palace.

Queen Letizia was a ray of sunshine as she kicked off the tour in a yellow ensemble by her designer of choice, Felipe Varela.
Embed from Getty Images

The bespoke set consisted of a lemon hued dress with guipure lace hem and a lighter shade summer tweed coat with the same trim. ​
Embed from Getty Images

The appliqué also defined the back waist.

As British protocol dedicates for such stately occasions, Queen Letizia wore a hat and gloves in a matching tone. This is the first occasion Her Majesty has worn a chapeau since becoming Queen consort in June 2014. The bespoke headpiece is by María Nieto.
Embed from Getty Images

On her feet she wore her beige Prada beige glossed Saffiano leather pointy-toe pumps and  carried a new yellow leather flap clutch bag by Magrit.

On her feet she wore the nude Prada pumps from earlier and carried a red leather bag by Spanish footwear and accessories company, Menbur. It is the 'Malva' clutch (€174.95).

I initially thought it was new but it came to my attention that Letizia first sported the bag during the recent visit to the Canary Islands. It was unidentified at the time because we never got to see the logo motif on the front.

She completed the look with the ruby and diamond dove 'Saudi' earrings on loan from Queen Sofia, which Letizia first wore during the Japanese State visit.

Her Majesty wore the Fleur de Lys tiara - the most prominent diadem that the Spanish royal family possesses. It is affectionately named the "La Buena," or "The Good One" by the royal family.  This was Letizia's second time wearing the piece.

The tiara is one of the joyas de pasar, a collection of jewels designated by Queen Ena in her will for the select use of Spanish queens. The large diamond earrings and the weighty diamond bracelet that Letizia also wore tonight are part of that group as well.

She was decorated with the Order of Carlos III, whilst King Felipe proudly wore his new Order of the Garter, bestowed upon by Queen Elizabeth today.

Rounding off the outfit was her Magrit 'Mary' red satin clutch bag which we first saw a few weeks ago.
Picture
As many of you know, I also run the blog Kate's Closet, so this evening was a real treat for me, bringing together the two royal ladies I passionately follow! The Duchess of Cambridge looked lovely in a dusty pink lace Marchesa gown with the Queen Mary’s Lover’s Knot Tiara, Diana's Collingwood Pearl and Diamond earrings, and the Ruby and Diamond Floral Bandeau Necklace on loan from Queen Elizabeth. You'll find a detailed account of her outfit on the Kate's Closet blog.

Well that's a wrap for today. I haven't slept in over 30 hours so I'm off to get some rest before we do it all again tomorrow. Cheers!
