The entire family is gorgeous and so impeccably dressed! I love the easiness of Queen Letizia's coat and it's a great choice to bring attention to a local designer. I'm looking forward to the next couple of days. I'm wondering if we will see anything new from Letizia!?

Letizia is from Asturias, she was born in Oviedo, so everytime she goes there, her countenance changes.

This year the act is into the La Reconquista Hotel, without public, a very small act. Normally they are held at the Teatro Campoamor (Campoamor Theater)...

Thank you for adding details about the girls outfits. I was about to suggest that you could start a blog about them, they seem to have inherited their mother's taste in fashion and really something to see :)

The brand of the bag "Reliquiae" is from an Asturian designer too.

I didn't realize the brand was Asturian. Thanks for pointing that out :)

This ensemble works perfectly well, the all-black looks smart under the vibrant fuchsia hue. However, after some consideration, I'm not quite sure that the biker-inspired top works with the coat, bow pumps and butterfly earrings. The coat would look luxurious paired with a richly coloured top (perhaps in a lighter or darker shade of bright pink or a bold clashing colour) and elegant wide-leg trousers, similar to the runway styling. Regardless of my quibbles, the stud work adds some interest to an otherwise plain top, the earrings and bows are barely visible and the look is a departure from the classical feel of 2016.

Fuchsia is such a bright and beautiful colour against the all black. I have several boiled wool jackets and they are very warm, but not bulky. Letizia's coat is stylish and the pants are a good length. I am always pleased to see a flat shoe and not the very high heels that invite lower back and foot problems. I'm not keen on the biker look of the top. Unless one is an actual biker, why wear something so "tough" looking? Glad for the most part that the coat covers the top.

A delicious snappy outfit from Letizia here. The fun pink car coat from Marcos Luengo with its angled patch pockets, dropped shoulders, and broad fit, coupled with sleek slimline pants and the trendy Uterque nappa peplum top are all chic personified.

The black of the base outfit acts as perfect context for the merry pink atop. And flats finish all off perfectly, even if they now result in Letizia looking shorter than her younger daughter. Love the funky shaped Reliquiae clutch. Thank you so much for the girls' outfits as well, they are looking very good!

I really like this beautiful fuchsia coat, gorgeous splash of colour. The choice of black studded top was different. I love the pants and bow flat ballerina shoes. It was very interesting to see what the girls wore, they looked lovely.

I love the colour of this coat but not the tailoring. Because of the way the seams are positioned it looks like it's being worn inside out.
The sleeves look odd and the pockets are too big and look very conspicuous. It's a very messy style.
