i really can't wait til the dinner in the moroccan palace... it will be lovely to see the princes with the royal family of morocco.

it's strange because the princes were today at the prado inaguration, does that mean they won't attend the opening? all the other openings were usually in the morning.

The top is a lot better than last time. Too bad her hair looks terrible without an updo, no time perhaps.

 

[PrincessofEurope]

in the pictures of the dinner is that a different top with the pink tiered skirt she wore for dinner in sept in madrid

 

[RachelD]

Oh my gosh! I'm LOVING the pictures! Well, I guess I'm loving the fact that since I've never seen this couple do a visit like this, now I'm seeing it! Or have I???? I like her outfits. She seems very relaxed and interested in her surroundings. I like that.

They speak French in Morocco right?

 

[bigheadshirmp]

Letizia looks fabulous with the new pink top with the dress!! very shiny!

 

[Mari_*]

Love Letizia's outfit, she looks like a model!
But that was a gala dinner?

 

[crisiñaki]

I really like the skirt, suits her beautifully but again (she's recycling things with little time), she screwed up with the top and the hairdo

 

[LadyFinn]

I had a feeling yesterday that the princess would wear this outfit at the dinner. She looks great, the colour suits her and the top is much better than at the last time she used it.

 

[donnaK]

I think a simple sleeveless top and updo hair paired with this skirt will look fab on Letizia. Kate's top is too sexy for a royal, the style of Elena's top will probably work.

[crisiñaki]

that's not the same top she wore last time, it's a different one
sometimes, she's a bit monochromatic when it comes to clothing: all black, all blue, all pink, etc
something in a different color would have suited the skirt (awesome one) much better

Morocco's princes speak spanish very well, they has spanish' nannies.
