Prince & Princess of Asturias's Official Visit to Poland: May 6-8, 2008


If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
Chances are that no-one in Poland have seen Letizia's clothes before so recycled or not should be irrelevant. She is very appropriately dressed and represents her country very well. The world does not need any more royal clothes horses. Letizia emphasizes substance in her royal appearances. It is great to see her having her own agenda and that she and Felipe are representing Spain together.
I hadn't even thought of that but you are right.
 
More on the Cervantes institute here. I wish they would open one in Amsterdam soon (and offer cheap courses of Spanish). Visit the website of the institute here.

there's actually a Cervantes institute already in Utrecht, Marengo, so I'm not sure they'll be opening another one in such a small country :)
 
Floral offering before the Monument to the Fallen, in the shipyards, they will visit the Museum ' Ways of the Freedom '

That was very well put and I agree 100%. They both do their country proud and you have to admit that they are a handsome couple -- also great true companionship and affection. I notice that unlike most couples, their outfits compliment each other, (his tie, etc.) which is something most married couples should do if pictures are to be taken. This means that they have talked it over prior.

lovely grey outfit for letizia! the place she visited with the first lady looks lovely as well. does anyone know in which language the guide was talking to her?
 
Great pictures again from today! I love the fact they're holding hands and interacting with the people!
 
good job letizia!!
La Monarquia
Princess of Asturias in visits to the foreigner, and not by distrust, but because the work and dedication that supposes to be the Princess of Asturias, handcuff of the Heir to the Secular Throne of the Kingdom of Spain, is nothing there, it is not like taking it lightly and going quickly and running.
 
In this interview in which the Polish prime minister speaks about the relations between Europe and Latin America, (to where he is going to travel in a few days), he does a very interesting commentary on the Prince.

Tusk: 'No entiendo la fascinación de la UE por Asia, olvidando a Latinoamérica'
...

For the prime minister of Poland, this can be achieved taking advantage of the privileged relations of Spain with the continent, and trying that Madrid does a really community politics in relation with Latin America and not only national.

In this respect, Tusk emphasizes like ' very interesting ' the meeting supported recently with the prince Felipe de Borbón, after which he confesses to have remained ' deeply impressed by the knowledge on global politics and intelligence ' of the aspirant to the Spanish throne.

' In the same way that Spain is today proud of the king, it will be of the future monarch ', he predicts with conviction.
 
Princess Letizia looks very good in this outfit. It's fitted and shows off her lovely figure.
I´m totally agree.

Letizia has a beautiful figure that we rarely are able to contemplate and this outfit let us to see perfectly the contour of her body:flowers:
 
Great photos of the visit to poland. :)
it was nice to see them having events together, but also solo-events.
Letizia looked really nice. I would like to see her wearing a long eveningdress again.

That's nice to hear. I always think Felipe has a lot more substance than his counterparts. It is a ringing endorsement from a foreign prime minister.

Not to pick on you, Princess Beatrix, but I found your comment regarding Letizia amusing. In the past, when Letizia didn't have solo events on foreign trips, some people belittled her as no more than eye candy. Now she has solo events, some people want her to be an eye candy, in gala gowns etc. :rolleyes:

As for Letizia's events, I'm a bit disappointed that those events are typical events for princesses or political wives: soft culture events, healthcare and children. In the past, Letizia got to attend business and political meetings with Felipe on trips. I found that more impressive than these "soft" events. So I'm not sure what the big deal it is with having solo events. I knew it would be like this.
 
Letizia is not the same Letizia from a couple of years ago. She has the body of a young girl (too skinny) and a very wrinkled face. I feel bad for her and hope she is doing well with her health. She used to be so full of life--she is not the same woman.
