Following the Honours rendered by a Battalion of the Royal Guard, His Majesty the King reviewed the troops in attendance. Afterwards, the Spanish royals greeted the civil and military authorities from the official platform, marking a solemn and dignified tribute to Spain’s Armed Forces.

For the occasion, Queen Letizia re-wore her blue Juan Vidal Soft Romantic Print Shirt Dress, notably customised with a shawl collar in place of the necktie detail featured on the ready-to-wear design.

I'm not sure what it is that I don't like this time, but the wear of this dress doesn't appeal to me, maybe the white accessories. The first wear of this dress was fine.

I like this dress and am happy that Letizia eliminated the floppy bow at the neckline. Although I am not a big fan of white shoes, these ones and the purse look just fine.

I was a bit taken aback by this dreary dress until it dawned on me how very lovely Princess Leonore looks in her uniform with her hair up. If ever there was a dress in which to fade into the background to allow s younger daughter to step into the spolight then this Juan Vidal shirtdress is undoubtedly it.

With tis dull blue background and fussy print, its floppy fabric makes sure the shawl collar, long bishop sleeves, and flippy skirt all fade into insignificance while keeping the Queen looking appropriate and official against her daughter's blue uniform. The white Furla handbag and Hugo Boss block heel sandals are very neat and smart, and the Gold & Roses Luzia Stars Earrings form a nice cluster of sparkle around her face.Nicely played by Letizia.
