Thanks for all the pics, they are amaizing.

Look for Letizia outfits it semes that she don't like to spend to mush in close... the opsity for many ( nothing that i care about ) but i just think funny....., or maibe she don't have any1 to find clothes for her, so with very few time she wear the same. But i read in a spanish magazine that she shoul cahnge more. I belive the spanish people don't care if she spend a lot.

www.cover.es has some beautiful ones from various time of the trip

I cant really see how they can critesize Letizia for having to many clothes, compared to the other Princesses she does so many more engagements and recycles alot and wears almost only spanish designers, which must be alot cheaper than italian clothes favoured by the other CPs and her sister in law Elena

I love her blue jacket, perfectly tailored and wonderful bright colour

Tinika · #**130** 02-25-2005, 11:21 AM

They really are the loveliest couple. They have such a glow of love and mutual respect, a true team, it seems. Beautiful to see.

Yes, all the clothes she's wearing on this trip are recycled. This was the third time she used that blue jacket with black pants (first time was before the wedding, when they paid tribute to the victims of 11th March in Attocha; second time was during their trip to Hungary). Also the third time she wore that red suit (first time before the wedding, to visit the Forum of Cultures Barcelona 2004; second time to the Prizes Principe de Viana). The periwinkle jacket with white skirt is itself a recycled outfit (the skirt is part of a white suit she usually wears with a crocodile belt) and this was also the third time she used them together (first time during the trip to Hungary; second time to visit the University Hospital of Navarre). Even the white suit is already the third time (first time was to receive the Olympic flame; second time to inaugurate the Chambers of Trade, Industry and Shipping) and she's combining now with the blouse that is part of the yellow/vanilla suit she had worn for a couple of times too.
And yes, they're all Spanish Designer clothes.

But still, Jaime Penafiel (always Jaime Penafiel...) can't stop beeating on her:

http://www.el-mundo.es/cronica/2004/467/1096293586.html

«Since the wedding, Letizia has attended a total of 66 official acts, almost half of them during six trips abroad (12 in Mexico, four in Dominican Republic, 8 in Panama, 20 in Hungary, 3 in the Vatican). Can you imagine the number of dresses, cocktail and gala outfits she's shone in these public appearances? More than 50, six of the most spectacular models were of Lorenzo Caprile. One of them still not used yet. To this it is necessary to add purses, shoes and other acessoirs. Just during the official trip to Hungary, six dresses, five purses and four pairs of shoes. If we consider princess Diana left at her death a closet with 500 suits, acquired throughout 16 years (from 1981, when she married, to 1997, when she passed away) Letizia, following this step, can fully surpass it. Let us hope she will not become such a fashion victim as queen Rania of Jordan».

The pictures are amazing, many thanks to everyone for posting! I'm not well today and then it's nice to see such images from a warm Brazil

Because of Letizia's clothes, I find too that there is no reason to critecize her. Agree with your opinion Larzen.

No gala outfits?

I don't care what Penafiel says, I'd like to more of her beautiful evening clothes!

The inhabitants of the favela of Candeal, a marginal district of Salvador da Baía that has been able to leave misery, thanks to the miracle of music, have organized a very special celebration to receive the Princes of Asturias, who will finish tonight their first official visit to Brazil.
Don Felipe and Doña Letizia will place in this district the first stone of the Maternal-infantile School of Almudena, constructed by the Spanish Agency for International Cooperation on lands bought eight years ago by the Brazilian musician Carlinhos Brown. "It will be - said the Heir to the Throne- a specially pretty way to conclude our official visit to Brazil". In the meanwhile, Carlinhos Brown explained the celebration that was prepared for them: "It will be a celebration of gratefulness with carnival music", but very natural, nothing tourist-like, a demonstration of what we really are. We are going to receive the Dynasty as we know; the Dynasty of Love".
Yesterday, the Princes visited the residence for old people of the Spanish Hospital, founded 120 years ago by Spanish emigrants.
