I love it! She looks fab to me, especially with the vivid color of the blouse. Everything perfect.
Thumbs up from my end.

I'm wondering if she is recycling some of her older clothes .... when she was a bit heavier. This is what I would call a "business suit", given the economic situation in Spain she may be delving into older clothes that she has not worn for some time. I agree it looks a bit big for her but I can't really fault her if she is trying to economize given the situation. In any event I think she looks lovely and cannot fault her if, indeed, this is an older suit.

I love her purple top. Although the suit does look a bit too big for her, she looks really great as always. Plus her hair is looking good again.

I do approve of the King's suit choice. A nice pin-stripe.

The Hugo Boss suit looks good on Letizia, everything fits well. The fuchsia top is a great choice with this suit, good contrast. She recycles the Armand Basi sandals, which give a little edge to this business look. Her hair looked great.

The suit is hanging on her.I dislike this kind of masculine cloths on her.
She has no curves,she should favor more feminine outfits.
The seam of the pant is either not well ironed or not well sewn
The shoes are super ugly.
I like the top and make-up.
Nice that her hair is thick again.

The jacket might have been a little shorter, but otherwise I see no "few sizes too big" or "the suit is hanging on her."
Her hair looks amazing!

I agree, the suit is what is call a relaxed fit. Not tight and form fitting. Actually looks nice on her slim frame. People complain when her slacks are tight and jacket form fitting also. I guess she is just doing what she wants now as she can't make 100% of people happy. Actually no one can.
As long as she represents her county and her husband to the best of her ability, I give her kudos.

It's great that she is recycling older clothes, if that's what's happening. But why not have some alterations to make the suit fit her smaller build? It's a nice suit but it doesn't fit. I don't find it masculine and like this style of pants on her much more than the tight ones she sometimes wears.

It is impossible to suggest any improvement on the suit of the King, as so often it fits 100% perfect on him. I agree with the observers above that the outfit of Doña Letizia left something to desire but it is no drama, just okay for the event.

For Felipe,I will suggest other shoes
For Letizia,a well fitted blazer like the one worn recently by Sophie of Wessex would be perfect and so feminine.Sophie's blazer though different was also better because it was made of a stiff material and therefore is nice when buttoned.
A well ironed pant would be good too
As for the shoes,I see nice pumps with mid heels and not sandals.
As for pants,I still prefer her with wide pants and not tight ones.I have also no problem with tight jackets but hate her tight and short cardigans

I like the free flowing of the suit. Why should she always wear form fitting, after all. This looks comfortable and it fits her - you can tell by the waist. JMO. In fact, I think she looks particularly snazzy in this outfit.

I agree with those who think the suit is a little big on Letizia, but she manages to wear it well. I love the purple top and her hairstyle is great - wavy hair suits her.

Exactly perfect for casual wear/holidays but certainly not for official duties.

I'm not a huge fan of Letizia's leggins, but I agree with Emmily and An Ard Ri - I prefer to see them in a photoshoot that is meant to be summerish and relaxed rather than a royal engagement. She looks nice in general though.

Lovely relaxed shots. She looks very chic. I also really admires how she dresses the girls, always age appropriate.
