These days Varela is up to this fake application / rhinestone stuff. He puts it on almost every dress Letizia got from him: it started with the cocktail dress in Majorca (goodbye eve), followed by the national day dress, the jacket at El Pardo, yesterdays' orange dress ... it's an endless list, I am sure I forgot something, and it only demonstrates Varela's lack of ideas. If it's a trademark, sorry, it's a cheap one as these applications look like some plastic being glued on dresses that deserve better. And so does Letizia. I don't know if it's her intention but Varela and all the other affordable low quality pieces don't do her any favours. On another thread posters compared Letizia's style to the style of Queen Rania - at the moment I'd see Letizia as a Mango version of Rania at most, if at all.

I love the big bag also, very confortable for travelling and lovely for day to day
i agree, the bag is amazing! i wonder if any of our royal stylists in the forums will find out who it is by!

i also agree that the stockings with the orange coat weren't the best option.

Thanks carlota. Letizia looks good in white it does suit her well. I especially liked the dress matched up with the belt & the other outfit which looked nice was the white short dress was well as the crochet skirt with fitted jacket.

Oh and another outfit which looked casual & hope to see it again is the gypsy skirt & off-shoulder top during a summer or two ago

I think that outfit was worn by the ugly wax figures of Felipe & Letizia shown on a pic in the gallery; thankfully it has been removed in the meantime.

The beautiful suit shown in the gallery that Letizia wears on her official pic and wore during her visit to Sweden is actually a very light rose (and not white) I think:

Casa de Su Majestad el Rey de Espaņa

I wasnt too sure where i hat to put this but since its a casual look I thought this is an okay place. A very pretty coat ( could be used in several ways) I also like her printed top. Letizia managed to put this cool, fun look together.

These tops are very in fashion nowadays, it looks like she is pregnant again but it just fashion style. The high boots and the leggins are a fashion this winter. She looks really nice, happy and with no stress!

I totally agree ikram. The suit was beautiful, the style suited Letizia and the quality or fabric of Armani clothes is beyond discussion and simply show. I wish there had not been this stupid critizism that obviously scared Letizia off wearing top class designer wear and made her focus on low budget & cheap fabric clothing such as Varela's.

I like the coat, the pants and the boots Letizia wore at the concert of Bruce Springsteen. They are nice and suit well on her.
I don't like at all the shirt, though that style is on fashion.
The material looks cheap to me and I don't like the colours.

I dont really care for the long coats over her dresses. She has such a small delicate frame, it seems like the coats weigh her down.

I didn't know it was from Mango, but I knew it was cheap!
IMO also the grey shirt she is wearing underneath doesn't look nice at all.

Although it might be fashionable the combination looks odd with summer blouse and fall/winter shirt and I don't like this trend with long sleeves dangling out of jackets / tops with short sleeves.

Right you are Duke ...Coat, trousers, turtleneck sweater, and boots matched well, but a light summery top looked rather awkward.

I am not familia with Mango. It is not well known in my country.
