Queen Letizia of Spain demands attention in a bold green dress and killer heels in Oviedo

Queen Letizia of Spain stepped out wearing a floral green dress to inaugurate the 2019 summer courses of the International School of Music. The courses are supported by the Princess of Asturias Foundation and the Spanish royal returned to her hometown of Oviedo for the event. She wore a long-sleeved colourful dress which helped her stand out and she paired the look with nude killer heels. Letizia was spotted meeting with staff and children who are involved in the programme.

The Spanish monarch often steps out wearing items from her stunning wardrobe and today was no different.

Letizia wore a garment by the french designer, Maje, which had a wrap V-neck and cuffed long sleeves.

The dress highlighted her tiny waist with elastic detailing and it had flowing skirt with an asymmetric hem.

Originally costing around £272, it is currently on sale for £163 on the designer’s website.

The garment was emerald green and had white, purple and pink flowers across it.

The Spanish royal dressed up the look with a pair of nude Carolina Herrera patent leather slingback heels.

She matched the dress with a pair of gold and emerald drop earrings and a gold-plated circular ring.

Letizia wore her hair in a side pattern which was styled into a bouncy blow-dry which rested on her shoulders.

She wore a smokey eye and finished the look with a slick of bronzer and nude lipgloss.

Earlier this week, she looked glamorous in head to toe pink on an outing with her husband, King Felipe.

The royal opted for a sleeveless pencil dress from American fashion designer Michael Kors.

She teamed the look with a pair of suede pink heels and wore a thin silver belt which pulled her in at the waist.

Her hair was styled into a side pattern and pulled back into a low ponytail.

Queen Letizia stunned in a white blouse and grey check trousers at a charity meeting in Madrid last week. 

The stylish royal carried a light pink clutch bag and pink high heels.

Queen Letizia of Spain: Five facts about the Spanish royal

Career

Letizia was already famous in her native Spain thanks to a career as a TV presenter and journalist.

She even won an award for best Spanish journalist under 30 in 2002, just before she met King Felipe.

Wedding

Felipe and Letizia Ortiz, as she was called then, wed in 2004.

She wore a long-sleeved wedding dress with a 15 foot train by Manuel Pertegaz.

As is custom with royal weddings, Letizia wore a tiara. Her diamond and platinum Prussian tiara is a German imperial heirloom created in 1913 by Koch for Princess Victoria Louise of Prussia’s wedding to Prince Ernst August.

Family

Letizia is the eldest of three daughters, with her middle sister tragically taking her own life in 2007.

Now, Letizia has two daughters, Leonor, Princess of Asturias and Infanta Sofia of Spain. She is a hands on mum, taking the children to school and enjoying countless family holidays with them.

Divorce

Letizia has been married before, wedding Alfonso Guerrero, a teacher, in 1998.

However she did not require an annulment before her roman-catholic marriage to then Prince Felipe in 2004 as her marriage to Guerrero was a civil ceremony.

Plastic surgery

In 2008, Letizia underwent surgery on her nose to correct a respiratory problem, the Spanish palace confirmed at the time.
