thanks Lucy! I am very glad all the royals we thought had missed this event were indeed there. I cannot wait to see this picture enlarged.

I think the top is new, because in USA, the Princess wore a whitish-beige shirt and the single once I saw Letizia with a black top, it was for a private diner in Portugal during their travel for the President 's intronisation.

I'm very found of this skirt that the Princess is wearing very well, it's so stylish as the design of Oscar de la Renta.


Nevertheless, the story is totaly edifying on the human "how do you say, stupity , not it too strong or not so" . No comment!

If Letizia has two or three minutes to lost in reading garbage forum(s), she can, more she migh laugh a little bite but I think that for her it's not the moment to do it

Maxima also wore that pink dress to Frederick and Mary's wedding in 2004. Thanks for the picture, Lucys! I admit I was disappointed there weren't photos of Felipe/Letizia, Frederick/Mary, and WA/Maxima, but alas they were there! Hopefully more photos surface in the near future. :)

I'm sure whoever tries to commit her into an institution for wearing that outfit will be committed themself for a 'late arrival'

Stallad, I had absolutely the same reaction when I saw Kalina's picture. She is horrible and I wonder how she dared attend a ceremony in such a dress.

Kalina's style is not new and she was an invited guest.

Thanks for the official group photo.

I love the skirt Letizia wore the first time she wore it in NYC. I didn't like the white satin blouse she wore in NYC though. It's way too old-fashioned and all the fabric seems to swallow her. This black top with the sweetheart neckline is so much better. I'm dying to see a picture of close up of the necklace she wore and her hairdo.

Did Mary match the floral stripeless gown with the old-fashioned pearl choker again? The old-fashioned choker ages her at least 10 years every time she wears it. I don't know whether she realizes it since she wears it so often. She should borrow some other necklaces from DRF's jewelry trove. Doesn't the DRF have any other necklace of note?

I am not a fan of Mathlide's balarina skirt. It makes her look bigger.

I wonder whether the photographer directed all the black outfits to one side and the colorful ones to the other.

I wonder whether Mary met Letizia and if yes, what they talked about.

Why wasn't Elena included in the picture? Is the official photo only for the "major royals"?

I wish I could see all of Mary's outfit in detail. It looks very colorful and something she has not worn before.

Thanks for all the wonderful pictures.I must say that there are a lot of royals whom I do not know.It's a shame that we only had one photo of Letizia,Maxima,Mary etc.At least Letizia is attending royal event outside Spain and get to mingle with other royal ladies.
Anyway Congratulations to Grand Duke Henri and Grand Duchess Marie-Therese on their silver celebrations.They are such a loving couple.

For the princess of Asturias, for instance, we can see she is woring news earrings and necklace ( for her ) but it's totaly impossible to see if it's jewelles of Spain Royal Family or new ones..... To bad :(

Here you have the cover of "Hola!" (originally posted by Paty in the thread dedicated to the covers with the Princes of Asturias).
"Hola!" says that it has some "fotografias exclusivas" inside. It's a bit strange since earlier they said that the only Spanish representation was Elena with husbend.
