wearing a brown coat dress last seen at the opening of the new wing to the Prado museum on 30th oct (also worn in 2004 and 2005) but this time she choose to wear it without the belt and large buckle
Ive always liked this coat, I prefer it with a belt. A belt just makes it look more elegent.

Here are the suits that are worn only once, that I hope she'll wear again because
1.) Some are too nice to keep; and
2.) Some are just a waste of money if worn only once.

2004
May 2004 Red suit
May 2004 Green suit in Jordan
Beige suit in Mexico July 2004
July 2004 Gray suit
October 2004 White suit
November 2004 Blue jacket

2005
May 2005 Pink suit

Many thanks for this thread and your work nouwrein That's terrific.

I can only agree that back in the old days Letizia looked very pretty with a chic and colourful wardrobe. These days she dresses and looks like a middle aged housewife, trying to blend into the crowd and not stand in the center of attention. This change of style or mind or appearance does not do her any favours.

I don't mind that she recycles a lot but most of these new recycled combinations simply don't look good and some of them are really dreadful since she does not know how to mix and match. Furthermore, much of her recent wardrobe does not have the quality of what she wore in the beginning and gives her a second class look depending who is surrounding her. It's a bit early for Letizia to find her eternal look at the age of 35 and to transform slowly into a second Sofia as both women are completely different from both their background and their personalities. Letizia needs to find her own style, I thought she was on a good way but looking at her now she has failed I am afraid.

I'll edit this from time to time when I see something as I browse through the photos in my PC.

I agree with you, looking all these photos makes me realize that she was much more in to fashion past years. Unfortunately she wears realy boring clothes these days.

I also think that thanks to you this thread is fantastic

I think she do a great job recycling her clothes!!Why not???Her clothes are brand new, so she should recycle them, that's imperative IMO and a very positive thing to do, she is not milionaire so she should recycle yes!

Personally I don't think it's bad to recycle clothes but I think she dresses a little bit boring these days. She is a fabulous lady, a crown princess... She has a beautiful figure. She is young. Of course she is not millionaire but there is no doubt that she has great opportunity. I'm absolutely sure that she can do better than these.

When Letizia got married for the first year or so, she wore many many beautiful suits. However there was a steady stream of criticism that her wardrobe was "boring" and she dressed like a businesswoman and was not nearly fashionable enough to be a CP.

In the past year or so she has clearly tried to alter this by wearing a wider variety of clothes, some of which have been incredibly fashionable.

Yet the same people who slammed her for her past wardrobe still criticise her clothes, I could be way off the mark with that observation but that is the way it seems to me.
