Queen Letizia repeats familiar pieces to inaugurate the school year in Navarra

14/9/2020

The Queen of Spain travelled to the Navarran towns of Milagro and San Adrián to inaugurate the 2020/2021 school year.

The day began at the CPEIP 'Nuestra Señora del Patrocinio', an Infant and Primary school in Milagro. Her Majesty toured the facilities and observed the hygiene measures which have been adopted due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The centre has been able to expand its patio space thanks to the City Council who has given them a nearby municipal sports area so that students can maintain their distance during leisure time.

The Queen later moved to the town of San Adrián, where she toured the facilities of the IES 'Ega', a secondary school, for students not only from the municipality but also from Andosilla, Cárcar and Azagra.

The visit concluded with a meeting chaired by Queen Letizia, with the educational community. Points of discussion included the challenges overcome to start the school year with some normality.

In 2018 when the Queen met film director Martin Scorsese, I found this top to be limp and dull, in addition, the plaid meets crudely across the side seam lines. I was disappointed that Letizia hadn't chosen something more uplifting to wear, such as the pretty Carolina Herrera turtleneck tucked into navy slim-fit cropped trousers, with navy pumps. As I have mentioned previously, I feel that Letizia needs more help in choosing garments from Zara.

It seems that the majority of the Queen's summer style is a deliberate attempt to go unnoticed. Quality repeats, in simple cuts and neutral colours, would have a similar effect, while embodying an understated elegance that has been missing in recent looks. Special mention to the President of Navarra, María Chivite, who looked lovely in a white pleated shirt dress and toffee suede pumps.

Here is the link to the CH pink top mentioned above, which Letizia has worn privately.

Such a sweet top by Zara and still looking good in Letizia. With a non-stop repeat wardrobe it becomes hard to find much fresh to say! The pants are nice with the too, not too wide leg and the espadrilles are reasonably neat in black. Apart from that it only remains to wish Letizia a very happy birthday!

It's good to see this Zara top once again. It's an interesting design because it's longer in the back than the front. The tie belt and lack of sleeves showcase Letizia's magnificent physique especially her muscular arms. However, I don't like the choice of crop pants. They are short and the top is long so the outfit is out of balance. I prefer the longer tapered trousers she wore with this top last time.

Zara fashion can be hit and miss. Unfortunately I find this top a miss. It is so limp looking and the pattern does not match along the side seams. I sew and really it takes very little effort to place pattern pieces so that the seams will match. I would never purchase an item with this flaw. While I really don't care for espadrilles, being in black they appear a tad less clunky than light coloured ones. Letizia's toned arms are a source of envy and I wish her a very happy birthday.

I loved this top the first time the Queen wore it and the same now. This top highlights the good points if one has them. The Queen certainly does, as Sandy mentions, beautifully toned arms. Plus a perfect posture, picture two is testament to that. (my dear mum was a stickler for that, she use to make us walk with a book on our heads around the house, lol!) Pants are a good fit, legs not too wide. The espadrilles look great.

Seeing Leitizia in yet another cheap-looking, ill-fitting Zara garment is a reminder of the golden rule of fashion, "if you're shopping on a budget, buy less and invest in quality.

You obviously do not know who ZARS is for Spain, they have given lots of money for machines to make maskes and for fight against covid-19. She is investing in her country, not in nonsense as clothing or fashion in a so difficult time. Maybe in your country, you are thinking in other things.

The longer pants would have balanced out the outfit, but she redeemed herself today in the repeated Michael Kors sheath dress.
The look of 2015 is fab. She owns it ... like a boss!

I really like this outfit, smart but not too formal. I like espadrilles in black, they're really unusual.
