King Juan Carlos's 70th Birthday Celebrations: January 5, 2008

How nice to see them all together!
IMO, Cristina and Queen Sofia looked nice.
Anyways, IMO not their best outfits, though I love to see the Queen in red.
Letizia looked nice too, really great hairdo but her dress was too "serious" and it hadn't a nice style. It was not a tunic and not a chemisier/shirtwaist. I am not so fond of her Christian Louboutin shoes,MediumPhoto
though really fashionable.
I don't like at all Elena's outfit. I agree that must be hard for her to attend any public event. I hope she feels good.
The King looked great, as always.

I felt kind of sorry for Elena. She didn't look exactly sad to me, just kind of awkward, like she was trying to pretend to be happy and o.k., but being with the two happiest of couples and at her first public event alone was kind of making her a little uncomfortable.

Cristina and Letizia both looked like they were going to a funeral. Way too dark. But other than that, I liked Cristina's dress, although I thought her makeup was a bit much (especially the lipstick- she should have gone with a lighter shade or applied less of it).

Letizia needs a stylist - or at least a proper hairdresser - NOW! She just doesn't look that good with short hair, IMO. Her hair looks beautiful curled, but not when it's this short. I liked her hair when she was a journalist. I also thought she just looked better then, and at the beginning of her marriage. She's a very beautiful woman, but she's much, much too thin to be considered healthy looking, IMO. She seems to be that she needs to put on 10-15 pounds.

Queen Sofia looked elegant and beautiful as always!

Some pictures were very touching. I would say the best picture ive seen was the King hugging/greeting Felipe. the Queen and Infanta Christina looked really nice, Letizia looks old but with her hair done the way it is made her look younger.. Thanks for all the pictures and articles everyone

Well she has had a pretty rough year: her sisters tragic death, combined with the fact that she was pregnant at the time, and obviously had to think of her unborn baby before she allowed herself to be consumed with grief. These things take time to come to terms with, and I am sure, that in another six months or so, she will look much better.

King Juan Carlos hosted a hunt the weekend of 18 to 20 January, on the occasion of his 70th birthday, a hunt reserved almost exclusively for men attended the Infanta Elena.

I'm reading some books about king Juan Carlos I as a politic. I think he's had "baraka" (luck in arabic) and the decitions he's made were very smart in difficult situations. Good luck and happy birthday!!!
