I love the dress. The color looks spectacular on Letizia, and the style is very classy. The belt adds a nice contrast too.
You were not answering to someone else's post. You made your own statements.
You know? I'm sick and tired of people like you putting down Letizia just because she doesn't "dress like a princess" . She proudly wears Spanish fashion because she believes in representing, value for money, her OWN brand - SPAIN.
She has her own style. A simple, uncomplicated, austerity professional style -the kind we Spaniards much prefer.
Queen's Sofia's time is almost gone. She always had freedom in the press relating to what she wore (and her spenditure) comparing to the type of scrutiny Letizia receives today. It may sound incredible but Letizia has about as much spending money as most of us here are on a 6 bracket annual salary anyway.
I though on this dress as wellGreat colour and certainly one of the best outfits in 2012, its perfect.
Reminded me of this outfit in 2007

Fashion is such an inconsequential thing...Sometimes she hits it out of the park and sometimes she doesn't. Yesterday in the short skirt and leather jacket she missed. Today in the hot pink dress she looks marvelous.

Letizia looks gorgeous. Nice to see her in a different colour. Beautiful dress with nice shoes, belt and bag.

I guess most of us like fashion and that´s because of we come to these threads and comment on the royals´outfits. I like saying what I like and what I don´t, what I would change, if a particular outfit doesn´t flatter a lady as it should, and I feel also free on saying if I dislike the style of any of these Princesses. It just about fashion, a pure frivolous thing.
The trouble is, that in Letizia´s fashion threads I´ve seen too many personal attacks on her, justified only because the person commenting doesn´t like what she´s wearing in that moment. I know someone will say this isn´t true, but it is, you just have to have a look at this thread and others.
I´ve seen so many comments that have annoyed me a lot (by the way, I think this is the first time I´m saying this), such as: she does´t like her role or doesn´t take it seriously, she´s depressed, she doesn´t respect the people she´s meeting or the act she´s attending...and one of my favourites: "She needs an stylist, but she´s so proudthat she doesn´t accept it", and so on...THAT´s just DISGUSTING.
So I understand perfectly what Alondra, Dkaren and others feel, because as Spanish I often feel offended as well, and we can say anything without been answered the old "this is a fashion thread and everybody has its opinion" thing. Okay, but if feel that fashion shouldn´t be used to attack anybody or judge his/her work.
And I´m one of the persons that don´t like especially Letizia´s style and would change many things about it, but I still think she´s one of the best CPs out there and the one that takes her duties more seriously.
PD: I hope I´ve expressed myself clearly, it´s very difficult for me writing such a long paragraph in English, I´ve really got a bad time
Absolutely spot on. These two outfits illustrate the enigma that is Letizia. One day . . . utterly fabulous and the next . . . oh dear.. . . . . Sometimes she hits it out of the park and sometimes she doesn't. Yesterday in the short skirt and leather jacket she missed. Today in the hot pink dress she looks marvelous.

I am not twisting words. If the meeting was so informal why was it listed as event on the website (Letizia has done cancer meetings that werent listed).
The male participants made the effort to wear suit and tie (I guess one gentleman took off the jacket).
Every time she represents the (serious) institution she should dress the part, no need to wear a conservative suit all the time but this outfit doesnt do Letizia's posititon justice. And all the meetings she does is because of her position and not because Letizia Ortiz is interested in the cause. She wouldnt be there without her title.
I wonder if people who sit with Queen Sofia are unfortable when she is wearing her Valentino or Oscar de la Renta
Its a fashion thread and I dont see what work ethic etc have to do with it.
