JuAnItA - Where did you find the beautiful avatar? I love that picture of the Queen! And although I love the Queen's first outfit -- the color of the second outfit is a bit drab on her. At the same time, she looks great, if hot in the later photos!
This "beautiful avatar" is in the avatar's galleries. There are beautiful avatars

I respect the Spanish royal family for recycling, but really, this is the fourth time in about as many weeks that the Queen's worn this outfit. She has averged about once a week for this outfit. Can't she put something else into the mix and wear that outfit say every other week, or gasp! once a month or something? Maybe we can start a game: Guess which day or which act the Queen will wear this exact outfit next week? I am putting my money on next Friday! :p

A girl kisses Spanish Queen Sofia during her visit at the chicken factory "Coren" in Ourense, northwestern Spain, 15 July 2006. The Spanish royal couple is on a three day official visit to the Galicia region
Queen Sofia carried out the anecdote of the day, since she left the room refrigerated cabin, due to the cold, even in spite the fact that Coren had anticipated for her a quilted vest, in order to mitigate the low temperatures (as opposed to the more than 30 degrees that were felt outside, the room was under 7 degrees of temperature). Consequently, while the King solved his doubts about the different processes from packaging, Doña Sofía waited with other employees and asked them if they didn't feel cold, due to the contrast of temperatures.

Beautiful picture. I love Queen's red outfit, I dare say red is the best colour for all ladies from SRF, they always look splendid and very special in it. Even little Victoria looked beautiful with a red bow in her dark hair...:)

I have to agree Alexandria! But my theory is that the Queen will have new clothes for autumn/winter so she is wearing her favourite suits for the last time this year! :)
Doña Sofía breaks the protocol to approach the coruñeses and greets a woman of 91 years who, with fourteen, in 1929, attended the burial of Maria Cristina of Hapsburg, great-grandmother of the King.
Josefa Arellano returned yesterday to the fourteen years. The age that it had when, in 1929, cried in the burial of Maria Cristina of Hapsburg-Lorena, widow of Alfonso XII, mother of Alfonso XIII and great-grandmother of Juan Carlos I. Yesterday, Josefa, with 91 years “way of the 92”, cried again when she narrowed the hand of Doña Sofía. ” Everything by Spain, Queen! “, she harangued to him with patriotism. ” That is, that is! “, it tells that Reina answered. This woman, who is conceited of “monarchist” - “I went to dismiss Alfonso XIII”, remembered, held to the sun in the Great Corner next to other 500 people until the Kings left Foundation Caixa Galicia. Only their piropos and applause, those of all those that waited the cultural building in front of, animated Reina to break corsé of the official protocol and to approach the coruñeses.
In less of a minute, Doña Sofía saluted to a ten of citizens, while others filmed it and they photographed it until with his movable telephones. Among them, in first row, taken hold to the iron door of security, Josefa Arellano - Madrilenian of birth, coruñesa of residence emphasized with its grey-haired hair and its eyes reddened by the emotion of to have greeted queen Sofía.

Thank you for the beautiful photos! I like, speacially, the ones of the Kings with other people.
I love the red outfit! And as LaChicaMadrilena said, that photo is very sweet!
Although, the Queen already used all the outfits, she is still very elegant (no matter what she uses or repeats). :)
