Yes, I thought the same thing -- and I think the pretty shoes are designed to match it.

Sofia's outfits are always so well coordinated. she clearly puts a lot of thought into making sure she puts in an appearance worthy of her position.

Seriously Letizia, it has been over two weeks since the birth by c-section, the least you could do for us was to hold your breath and squiz in to a tight Caprile dress tonight....The Prince can babysit, we already know what he is going to wear anyway

Larzen you're so funny Poor Girl let her stay Home with Little Leonor.Is good for her to be for a few hours alone with her baby.Because with felipe over there he will not give her time to hold leonor.Leonor is so an sweat baby. i have the Semana magazine on my table and every time i see those baby lips and cheeks i only want to go get her.I hope for the prince sake he tells something about his girls tonight.

It depends of the hour to the one that is the dinner, but probably if because the visit of the Chinese President is being followed enough by the press.

The Queen changed the shoes... look at her shoes in the official receipt, are different! But the first shoes are more beautiful than the second.. i think!

Wow! The Spanish royals look wonderful -- especially the beautiful jewel tones at this time of year!

 

[lapopdiva]

Queen Sofia looks great. i love her dress.

 

[xicamaluca]

They look realy great I love the tiara thta Queen Sofia is wearing!! Soooo regal!!

Btw, i think that the dress that Infanta Cristina is wearing is the same that she wore in her pre-wedding gala, but i´m not sure But, i belive that i saw it before!

Yes, it is the same dress. The dress of Queen Sofía also is repeated. The one that takes to Infant Elena I don´t know it.

 

[Juanita]

I love the tiara and the dress of the Queen!
I don't like very much the Infantas' dresses... i think that they are a little "dislocated"! I think that the dresses are old!

[zarzuela]

Wow the Queen looks absolutely fabulous!

I think that Infanta Cristina could have looked better. I suppose this dress has a special meaning for her, but in my opinion it looks a bit outdated.

Yes, she wore it to her pre-wedding gala, as well a to the wedding of Alexandra of Berleburg.

The Queen looks absolutely marvellous. Love the colour! Both Infantas look ok, but the dresses are a bit outdated. And little Leonor must be proud to have such a handsome daddy, although she must be sleeping right now.

What happened to my modern and sophisticated Infanta Cristina? She had made such dramatic improvements in style over the last years. You all know I adore the Spanish royals--infact, they are the only one I follow with regularity--but this dress really should have stayed in the closet. Oh well--none can be on all the time--even the Queen sometimes wears peculiar outfits--although I love the color of the dress tonight.

Great images of the throne room!

 

[Emily]

Can someone post a close up shot of Infanta Elena's dress?

 

[Roxsteve]

I think Cristina looks wonderful. The color of her dress is great!
