As I said before: nice pieces; but not nice together IMO.
Btw: her hair looked a little messy.

I agree about the matching HM, the pieces look like thrown together. The purse is out of place with this outfit and the whole look as usual ordinarized by ugly silver peeptoes. I don't know for sure but my guess is that it's by Varela, another boooring coat / dress combination.
Letizia looked tired and forgot to wash her hair this morning. She looked similar 2 years ago in her early pregnancy with Sofia, somehow uncomfortable with a forced smile. Maybe another Borbon is on the way, would be a good excuse after all.

Dissapointing look. The coat looks big and its not Letizia. Its way to old for her IMO though I like the collar on it. The dress is boring, looks abit tight around the bust area and the neckline on the dress does not look nice with the collar of the coat. Color of the outfit does not do Letizia any good.

The outfit isn't horrible or ugly...it's just boring. The color and texture of the coat are very nice, but the dress underneath looks kind of frumpy. I really like her shoes, but the purse looks terrible with this ensemble. She looks kind of washed-out in these colors. She also looks tired and pale.

She looks quite good. Maybe the colour wasn't the best choice better would be violet or red (she looks nice in red). Coat and dress looks good on her.

I think she look ok, but not more than that. The color doesn't suit her well. I think the cut of this outfit would be better in another color.
Roll of dice..... 3.
You will do better next time Letizia. :)

I dont mind the outfit. I am pleased she has chosen a colour that i dont think she has worn before.
It also looks quite good next to the Queen's bright and the Infanta's dark colours.
I really like the texture of the coat.

Maybe she has some kind of contract with Varela for clothes?

She looked similar on National Day 2005 when she was pregnant with Leonor. But back then it was at least a matching outfit.

I like the jacket and the dress is elegant but all the same colour makes the whole outfit yes boring!

I also think she lost her "uniqueness" after the nose op. Now she just another pretty woman. Don't like the grey ensemble on her, way to matronly and boring.

That is what a good dresser/advisor does for a couple -- they should be coordinated for photos. A dresser always asks what the husband/date is wearing for the occasion. His clothes are mandiated for the occasion so hers should be made to compliment.
Even Willem-Alexander, definitely not a fashion icon, will on "dressy" occasions, coordinate his ties with Maxima's clothes.
Maybe Letizia wanted to blend into the background against her mother & sisters-in-laws -- of course how could anyone blend away on the arm on Felipe!

Totally agree - she has lost her "character" and uniqueness - her face has a blank look now.
