Maybe the blue coat is the best blue outfit she has (blue is the color of Oviedo), thus she decided to recycle. The place and time of this event was decided at the last minute, thus she might not have the new clothes for this outdoor event at night.
I don't quite understand why Duke was complaining about her speech, she was a bit emotional, thus seemed a little nervous, which is perfectly understandable for this occasion.
But her hair looked bad, she should have an updo hair since it was an evening event.

I do like her voice, it is mesmerizing.

I am puzzled by her fashion choices since she became a mother. She appears to be struggling to find a happy medium between short young styles and a period of 60-70's style. Even her hair style is in limbo. Hopefully she will get her mojo back soon as I did love her style in the first year, especially the shoes!;)
 
What a great and severe censor you are!

When you say it's incredible that the Princess of Asturias is repeating so fast an outfit, the asturian people are saying what a tactful and kind gest to wore a blue outfit, and more exactly the blue of Oviedo:wub:

Whithout this reason which seems to me sufficient, she is going to have to elegant events more, the concert of to morrow night and the day of the prices. Do you think that the princess of Asturias is wrong to wear the color of her town, more to wear on her outfit the symbolic brooch of Asturias, that you didn't have noticed:argh:

May be you are a little extrem. For her hairdo, you are repeating to - yo too- It's her cut of her for the moment why do you want that Letizia changes her hairdo because you don't like it:lol:

To end, the princess of Asturias was a little bit disturb by a kind gest of her husband who with many tenderness was giving to her the stick of the town that the Mayor had just giving to him because he is Honorary Mayor. Can you imagine Letizia would be a little moving by this ceremony and may be, I say be because I'm not sure, she isen't a machine!:angel:


Dear friend I find that you are shooting faster that your shadow!:flowers:

is your opinion and I respect that, so please respect mine (do not try to make insignificant or wrong) ;)
all in peace :flowers:

1. Blue? well, I guess she has other blue outfits, doesn't she? why repeating after such a short time? not even us poor proletarians :lol: do that
2. I can't help but repeating since she repeats herself, her hair is awful as it have been the last couple of months

I like the outfit, but it would have been WAY more interesting if she'd worn something else, since she last wore the outfit a week or two ago.

She REALLY needs to do something about her hair, longer, or worn up, or in curls, or just a totally new style, or not straighten it as much, or get Panteen Pro-V, ANYTHING would help! She might even need a better hairstylist, because, when she wears it down, it looks almost as if she cuts it herself, and did a cruddy job. :rolleyes: It's getting almost as old an boring as Elena's "faithful" braid.
 
Next, she should be given the title of Saint. I think some of the remarks to Duke and Crisiñaki are pretty absurd and quite rude. Duke and Crisiñaki are probably two of the few who actually make sense and give credit when credit is due. There is no reason to attack them like that. She does look very simple and plain. I don't see any reason as to why she looks like that. Her make up, hair, choice of outfits. It is simply the truth whether some like it or not.

I managed to just catch the tail end of her speech. She looks beautiful. It was so sweet that she spoke of how the Infantas will know how beloved Oviedo is for the Principes.

Do you get Spanish channels in Chicago?
 
Letizia does not seem to care about being a fashion icon. This is a good thing.
 
That's a trademark of the SRF, the Queen and the Infantas aren't precisely fashion icons, they are almost always very well dressed (elegance, "percha" as we would say in spanish) but never to the "fashion" point:)

I agree with you, not being a fashion icon is nice, specially if you do dress well, know how to recycle and mix and match clothing :)
 
A nice opportunity to honour Letizia as she is in town for the PoAA anyway. That's the good part. I am still stunned how nervous and stiff Letizia comes across when she has to deliver a speech as if she had blanked out everything she did in the past. There is no hint that this woman used to anchor the spanish evening news only a few years ago.

I disagree on this. I thought she was emotional in her speech having just received such a distinction in her native land.
 
More photos

The princess looked radiant and she and her husband look very happy.
Polfoto :wub:
I don´t mind her recycling her clothes. I appreciate her for having an outfit of the Oviedo blue, it was a lovely gesture.
 
The Princess always has repeated suit, I do not understand the debate, to repeat a suit 15 days later it isn´t strange ... the Queen has managed to repeat several times the same one in the same week (concretly a green suit on that she put three days in less of 10 days). On the hair, probably today for the concert and assurance tomorrow for the act in the Campoamor she will have a more elaborated hairdo; yesterday newcomer of Madrid I do not believe that she had a lot of time.

On the other hand, not if with intention or not, the suit of the Princess has been one more element inside the speech of the act. Not only for the blue, near to that of the flag of the city, on which she was taking the Cross of the Angels, symbol of the same one. But in addition, somehow, at this moment that politically is so mad, the own speeches were referring to the history of Spain and the Monarchy, and it was connecting with the celebration of the National Day.

It's a nice gesture but if this is the only blue outfit Letizia has in her closet I do feel sorry for her.

For her hairdo, you are repeating to - yo too- It's her cut of her for the moment why do you want that Letizia changes her hairdo because you don't like it:lol:

Is there anybody who likes it? It IS awful and a shame that a CP constantly shows up with second class hair at official events since in theory she has access to a hairdresser. It's her job to look good since she's not Senora X but we have been here before.
You too are shooting faster than your shadow!
It seems that you have read too many Lucky Luke comic books, dear adelaide ;)

You cannot be serious :rolleyes: I always thought that these events are planned and discussed months in advance :rolleyes: Even if she knew a few days before she could have taken care of proper clothing. The more I see that more I believe that she simply does not have anyone to help her in the dressing / styling department and no time to take care, hence the poor result.

But her hair looked bad, she should have an updo hair since it was an evening event.

Thank you :) The hair has become the most disturbing issue when appearing in public lately.
 
Thanks To All For Your Pictures, Videos And Comments!!

I like it. http://www.ipapress.com/imgBanco/IPA-20071024-0077-007THMBG.jpg
I don't see what the big deal is with the hair. I've seen all the pics and it looks good to me and shiny! :)

Glad she makes a speech! Pity she wore the same outfit than at the national day but never mind!
 
I think recycle outfits is a very good and wise thing to do this days!We can assume that the Princess is not only concern with her outfits but also with the event it self, and if it is important to look nice and well dress it is also important to know that these are difficult times for most everyone and maybe that his her message!
 
Her speech was pretty good, she has a very clear voice and I can totally understand why she was selected for news broadcasts.

As for her hair, cannot see the fuss, although I would have liked to se her wear it up for an evening event it looks fine.

So she repeated an outfit?! What's the big deal, especially when it's such a significant colour for the event. Mind you, maybe the Infantas swallow up so much of the budget there's not much left for Letizia....'

That's a possibility but what does this tell us about Felipe and the way he negotiates his budget? :lol: :rolleyes:
I mean HE is ALWAYS on top of his looks at official events, no matter if it's about uniforms, suits, ties, shirts :cool:

Did you count the nomber of his suits ? and his way to repeat some of them which look like to have his preference. What do you think about the cut of his outfit? Sometimes the king wear suit more younger styled and cutted than those of his son, did you noticed that?

The money the King distributes it, I do not believe that the Prince could negotiate very much. On the other hand, nobody concentrates on the clothes of the men, we do not know what the Prince repeats suit, tie or uniform. In addition, he has had many years to be increasing his cupboard. Them same it happens, for example, with the Queen. She has fewer new suits that the Princess, and she repeats the new ones enough, which happens is that she can, without problems, extract of her cupboard suits of 10 years ago. :rolleyes:

I am not critzising the repeating of clothes, Letizia has many wonderful and high quality dresses and costumes from previous years that deserve to be worn again and from time to time she does, eg earlier this week, but I thought that there should have been a better option than repeating this blue combination after such a short time and for this event.
What I meant regarding Felipe is how he appears in public. He may well recycle, fine, but the clothes he wears in public are ALWAYS very well fitted and of high quality, probably custom made (that could be due to his height though), of course it's an advantage that it is hard to identify a suit as they all look similar.
 
Since someone has commented on this suit it was very adapted for this act by its color, perfectly ... so the Princess that they do not have problems in repeating will have considered to be adapted to return to use it. For other side, I believe that from indirect form to connected two acts where the messages are connected. After listening to the speeches attentivly one cannot avoid do a connection between them and the National Day, especially at this moment, and for the historical meaning that Asturias and Oviedo have in relation to the history of Spain and the Monarchy.
