Ona Carbonell Ballestero (29) is the best swimmer in history: 23 world medals, 10 hours a day of training and 14 years under pressure.

His older brother received a doctorate in synthetic biology three years ago with a thesis in English.

Actually, I think Sun yang is.

Sun Yang is a man, they do not compete in the same league. In Spanish I would have said "nadadora", you do not have a different word for female and male as we have in castellano.

Another ensemble which I think looks better now than it did on the US State Visit. I think the styling of hair has improved and this has enhanced the Micheal Kors look along with the printed Carolina Herrera from last week. Even though this is an exact re-wear the chic ponytail completely refreshes the ensemble. This shade of pink is playful but stylish, the silver details add interest to the clean silhouette and it feels somewhat retro. The double dagger earrings compliment the metallic belt and rings around the buttons, there is balanced coordination. A brilliant repeat! The Queen has worn some wonderful colour this week, I would love to see it continue until they break for summer. The appearances have been so striking, a joy to follow! many thanks Elizabeth and Alessandra!

I got myself well and truly confused looking at the past outfits of both this and the CH and completely missed the obvious, that Letizia switched up the look this time with that neat ponytail. I agree with you it is key to refreshing the outfit.

Hi Bertie, I found it quite confusing too, two pink dresses with pink accessories. This is a fine example of how a relatively simple hair style can transform a look. Kudos to Letiza's team for this excellent repeat. I thought the styling exceptional here, I can't imagine better accessories with this Michael Kors dress. Enough time was also left between wears for this look to feel dramatic and fresh, but the new hair style was needed.

I love this dress! For some reason I like it more this time than when she wore it in the USA. With her hair in a ponytail, for me it changes the whole look and I love it. The buttons are adorable and I love the matching shoes.

I remember this dress from the visit to the White House last year. I love the colour and simplicity of the style. I used to have a problem with the buttons on the hips- too bulky. But If they removed them the dress might look plain and boring. That's where jewelry comes in handy. Melania Trump has the exact same dress in blue. I wonder if she noticed it..

I adore pink, so this is one of my all time favorite Letizia looks, and it is amazing to see how much better it looks this time around with a ponytail.
I assume since this is such a youthful color, a ponytail just "sits" well with it.

I was confused at first on seeing a pink rewear from the US trip as I thought we'd only just had one, but looking back of course that was the Herrera fit and flare and this is a classic MK sheath. We still reference the CH it seems since the Magrit accessories used here were also at that outing. I expect she's wise to keep accessories much the same as the first Kors outing, the silver highlighting on belt and buttons does most of the work, and the discreet dagger earrings continue the theme while keeping their ever-welcome modern edge.

A beautiful outfit from head to toe. The midi dress is stunning. In this instance I really love the matching pumps and clutch. Earrings are gorgeous. Like the hair pulled back, she oozes elegance and class in this ensemble.

Queen Letizia looks stunning in this outfit. This is a beautiful, well tailored dress from Michael Kors that Letizia wears as well as the couturier could have hoped. She wears the accessories with aplomb.
