Leonor's less active than the usual. She also seems afraid to touch the dolphin unlike their other trip to Fauna Zoo, she's more active then but nevertheless, she's too cute for words...:wub:
 
poor leonor, it must have been really frightening for her to see herself standing next to an animal that doubles her in size! no wonder she didn't seem too keen to touch it.

Haha, she kind of reminded me of myself at her age. My parents thought it would be nice to go to a children's farm and get me to touch a baby cow and take a picture of it. I did exactly what Leonor did, no way on earth was I going to touch it. :D Just wait a few years, then she'll probably be as keen on touching at as her cousins were.

I have seen the images of the dinner in the Prado Museum in the television. The Queen Sofia repeats the dress blue and black of Oscar de la Renta that dressed in New York two years ago, the Princess a new black dress.

Oh, can't wait for the pictures then! So this is a "long dresses" event, isn't it? That blue and black gown was one of the best garmets I have seen on Sofia in recent years, very simple and elegant and yet wonderful.

The black outfit of Letizia is OK, but very boring. A jacket with big shoulder pads, V-neck dress, Varela has ZERO creativity.
Again, the pictures from Terra are so low quality.
 
Now she's always gray or black, a decent outfit compared with some others but I don't like that dress cut, looks for a pregnant woman.

Gray and black are the two main colors of this fall/winter. Since Varela has limited client base, maybe these two colors are all he has right now ;).
 
Letizia looks elegant and beautiful.
 
I agree with you donna, Varela has ZERO creativity, sometimes his designs look taken straight from El Corte Inglés or so

I think Letizia should change and let Varela behind, there are some awesome spanish designers like Angel Schlesser, Miguel Palacio, Lorenzo Caprile, Jesús del Pozo, who can make her look very well dressed

I kinda like the hairdo, at least the bangs are away from her face and with this awful haircut she has, is the best that can be done

In general terms, she looks OK, not striking but not downright bad either, which is a great improvement for her
 
The Queen looks great. She is "royal", as always.
Letizia looks nice though I don't like the dress, the v neck and the impero style. I agree with you Crisinaki, she should change stylist.
Her hairdo is perfect, she looks by far better.
Felipe looks great!

Queen Sofia looks stunning! Letizia's dress would be better if it wasn't too dark. Makes her look skinnier. She needs to wear bright colors.
 
thanks Lula for the p ictures. I have to say that is one of the nicest evening dresses Letizia has worn, yes its is black but she has been seen in anything in that style before. i liked it!! Queen skirt is bright, nice for a chnage as well. thanks for the lovely pictures.

Why werent any of the infanta's attending?

Los Reyes inauguran hoy la ampliación del Museo del Prado. Ideal

The Kings inaugurate today the extension of the Prado Museum

The Kings inaugurate today the major extension of the history of the Prado Museum, which opens new rooms with an exhibition dedicated to the big Spanish teachers of the 19th century.

The act of inauguration, which will begin at 12:25, will rely on in addition the assistance of the Princes of Asturias, as well as of the prime minister, the first vice-president of the Executive, the minister of Culture, the chairwoman of the Community of Madrid, the mayor of the capital and the president of the PP, between others.

is that black dress on Letizia not the same style as the one she wore in holland for willem's 40th birthday party only this time with a black jacket??
 
I have to say that I don´t like the dress,but I love the jakect and her hair.
On the whole she looks fabulous. Original hairdo!
I think Queen Sofia dress is by Oscar de la Renta, isn´t it?
 
Wow, Queen Sofia looks S-P-E-C-T-A-C-U-L-A-R :notworthy: Perfect perfect outfit.
Letizia has a very nice hairdo and I like the jacket but not the combination. Overall it looks boring and uninspired; too black and find her black open toe plateau sandals not the best choice for this event. The dress has the usual Varela cheap fabric and I don't like the pregnancy style on a non-pregnant woman (in general - unless it's a fun dress worn on holiday). Of course Varela likes the pregnancy style because it helps to hide his unability to design a well fitted piece of clothing :rolleyes:
