I like all the pieces of this outfit but not all together. I think the buttons of the jacket would look better buttoned up and worn with a skirt or pant. I don't like the red belt on the dress because it's too distracting worn with this jacket. A thin black belt would have been more subtle while still giving the dress some shape. The gorgeous claret red shoes and purse are the outfits saving grace.

I like the jacket, dress, belt, shoes and purse. The dress photographs as black not grey. Also, the jacket is red, whereas the other accessories are burgundy. So to me, this is a clash, although others might like the red because it is not matchy/matchy.

I think leather looks much better worn like this, styled and fitted, rather than as loose as the recent Hugo Boss skirt Letizia debuted. This Caroline Herrera example is clearly beautifully crafted. It's certainly one way to distract attention from the budget price Mango dress, the chasm in quality between the two is a bit too wide for me.

The Mohel Granatta belt doesn't appear to be the same shade of red as the jacket which jars a little. Otherwise I love the matching Magrit accessories. Overall a good working outfit, ticking all the present correct boxes for re-use of garments with budget items.

This CH leather jacket is gorgeous, I don't recall seeing it before, so its a bonus for me. The design, fit and cut is perfect. The grey knitted dress is fine and I don't have a issue with it combining the leather jacket. The shoes and clutch being a different shade I love.

Hi Tibi,
Thank you so much, this completely missed me, this is so interesting to look back and compare, see how it was worn, not once but twice. Regards.

The Queen looks smart in this outfit. To me, the open leather jacket creates a fluid profile. If the jacket was buttoned, the overall look would be stiffer due to the inflexible texture of the leather. The differing tones of the red jacket and crimson accessories are OK. I dislike the dress sleeves being longer than the jacket sleeves. My eyes are dragged to her wrists. The dress sleeves could be tacked up to 'fit' under the jacket sleeves, thus providing a more streamlined look.
