Well we haven't done Fashion Fridays in a while. Since I live in Australia and I update before any fashion comes out on the Friday that I'm writing (by time there are pictures it's Saturday here) I will be taking it from the previous Friday till Thursday. So this week we'll be looking at what the royals wore from the 20-26th of November.
There were quite a few outfits this week, our star was Queen Letizia of Spain who dazzled with four different outfits:
This is what the Queen wore on 20th November to meet with King Abdullah and Queen Rania of Jordan. I love how she's made a simple grey dress, which on anybody else might look plain really stand out. The black belt in the middle and the black heels really add to it. Her handbag is professional and works with the rest of the outfit.
Queen Letizia may be rich but she's also economical. On Monday the 23rd the Queen had two functions to attend and chose to wear the same outfit for both. The only thing she changes is her shirt. I like the outfit and her shes are so cute. The only change I would make is, because she is wearing so much red already I would not wear red lipstick. I also prefer the shirt in the first picture. The shirt in the second looks slightly messy. I do like her hand bag though, whit was a good choice to match the shirt.
The 24th of November brought us this stunning outfit. Here the Queen attends the anniversary of a newspaper. Her curled hair looks great and the black suit is really appropriate for a newspaper anniversary. It's casual, yet formal all at once. This is my FAVOURITE Queen Letizia outfit for this week.
Finally on November 25th the Queen of Spain wore this outfit to an awards ceremony. It's nice but it makes me think she's coming back from a funeral. I think the earrings are a great, the black really breaks from the rest of the gold. The lipstick stands out as well, maybe a lighter shade.
What did everyone else where this week, let's take a look:
Queen Rania of Jordan wore this outfit when she met with King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia of Spain on November 20th. I'm not really a fan to be honest, she looks like shes going to a costume party. I like bits & pieces of the dress, just not together. The shoes seem out of place as well, though on their own I think they're beautiful.
Queen Elizabeth II wore this to a church ceremony on the 24th. Her flat shoes are cute and of course appropriate for someone of her age. The outfit is very well put together. The hat isn't to out there and the gloves match with everything else. I might've gone with a smaller hand bag, but it still works. Queen Elizabeth has got the granny fashion perfect!
Birgitte, The Duchess of Gloucester wore this cute black dress to a charity swim and a gala dinner. It's a beautiful dress and I think a good choice for the event and for her age.
Queen Silvia of Sweden wore this to the Global Child Forum on Thursday. It's a beautiful colour and says exactly what it should, let's do business, we've got something serious happening here. Her make up is really subtle and it looks great. The scarf really adds some vavoom to the outfit and the black shoes and little black bag are an excellent choice.
Princess Madeleine got it wrong. Here she is attending he Global Child Forum with her mother and sister-in-law. She looks like either a magician or someone going to a rodeo. I mean the colours are all right, the black and white, the outfit is just wrong though. The bag is way to big, she doesn't need a carry on bag for this! Sorry Princess Madeleine you struck out.
Princess Sofia, daughter-in-law of King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia of Sweden is on the far right. The top is a nice colour but I'm not a fan of that big fold. She's possibly wearing something like that due to her pregnancy, she's due in April. However The pants are far to short and don't really match. The shoes are okay, but we're seeing to much of them. I do like her make up, her face is very pretty. The little purse is a great idea. Just a few tweaks, and she'd have a terrific outfit.
Now for my pick of the week. Of all these outfits we've seen this week my favourite has to be....
That's right, Queen Silvia of Sweden. As much as I love the outfits of Queen Letizia this one just stands out. The colour is amazing and the Queen really looks nice. Congrats Queen Silvia!!!
