The Queen of Spain attended a workshop with the 70 executives of the Instituto Cervantes (Cervantes Institute) from around the world.

The Institutio Cervantes is a Spanish governmental institution which promotes Spanish culture and language across the world. The organization was established in 1991 and is named after Miguel de Cervantes who the wrote the classic novel ‘Don Quixote'.

Letizia opted for a bold Rorschach-style printed dress from Hugo Boss for today's board of directors meeting at the headquarters of the Institute.

The belted sleeveless dress is a repeat and has been worn on a few occasions since 2012.

Queen Letizia teamed the dress with her cognac Mui Mui platform sandals which are also a throwback and first seen at a audience hearing in April 2014.

She color-coordinated the shoes with a new brown leather flap clutch bag. It is the Hugo Boss BOSS 'Luxury Staple C' clutch (£425).

Queen Letizia showcased a new pair of earrings from her ever-expanding collection.

I originally thought they were the Oscar de la Renta gold leaf clip earrings, but Spanish jeweler My Collect claimed she was wearing their 'Leaving Gold' earrings.

Hoy estamos felices felices! Y es que nuestros (y vuestros) queridos #leavinggold tienen una dueña con la que nunca nos habíamos atrevido ni siquiera a soñar. Es una emoción enorme para nosotras que se haya fijado en @my_collect y poder contarla entre nuestras clientas. GRACIAS Podéis ver en @woman_es el artículo que nos dedican! #felices #mycollect #pendientes #earrings #letizia #letiziaortiz #reinaletizia

The design is a knock-off of the Oscar de la Renta silhouette, but the obvious difference is their size. The My Collect pair measure about 4.5 cm in length (consistent with Letizia's earrings), whereas the Oscar de la Renta pair are over two times as long.

This is the first occasion we have seen Letizia sport a piece by the budget jewelry retailer. The leaf motif earrings retailed for €16.53 but have unfortunately sold out.

Natalia, I haven't been able to find any record of Letizia wearing this dress prior to June 2012. Do you have a photo?

She also wore this dress in July 2013 ( at the opening of International School of Music of the Prince of Asturias Foundation) and in September 2013

Thank you Mary Rose! I'm not sure how all this slipped my mind, especially since I posted the dress in a blog a few days ago. It seems I may need stronger coffee :)

You have good English. I am from Russia and my big dream is to learn English, it is necessary for my work. I like read about royal family especially Spain and Letizia. I checked to many sites about royal family and to communicate

This is a nice dress. I wonder why Letizia wears so much Hugo Boss? I know she does wear Spanish designers, but this brand seems to be her favourite!

I suspect she wore a lot of Hugo Boss during her career as a journalist. It's a brand she's used to wearing and as long as Hugo Boss continues their tradition of exceptional tailoring, then I think Letizia will continue to wear the brand :)

According to Uxia from "Diez minutos" the earrings are the "Leaving Gold" earrings from mycollect.es. They look like a copy of the Oscar de la Renta's gold leaf clip earrings though they are difficult to distinguish.

Edith, thanks for bringing this to my attention! In light of this information, I revisited the Oscar de la Renta earrings and now realized the size is too big to be Letizia's, The one's from My Collect are consistent with Letizia's earrings! Thanks again!

Ja, the Oscar de la Renta's gold leaf earrings are longer. They are beautiful. Would like to have them :)

It's an past-season dress which has been discontinued, so eBay may be your best option in locating this dress. Good luck!
