Queen Letizia of Spain has made another stylish outing this week, meeting with members of the Spanish women's football team wearing an ultra-chic neutral look.

The royal's outfit consisted of a knit halter-neck top from Massimo Dutti teamed with Carolina Herrera white trousers and a pair of classic white espadrilles – as well as a pair of beautiful diamond mismatched earrings.

Letizia tucked her long brown hair behind her ears and wore a soft and glowing makeup look, as usual.

In fact, her simple and chic outfit is actually not unlike the styles the Duchess of Sussex likes to wear – Meghan has also worn a very similar knitted vest by Anine Bing in the past, worn with neutral wide-leg trousers.

Of course, the flattering wrap-neck silhouette is also the one that Meghan chose for her evening wedding gown, made by Stella McCartney, showing off her ultra-toned shoulders.

The royal also loves to wear espadrilles like Letizia – also favoured by the Princess of Wales, the Duchess of Edinburgh and many more royal ladies.

The monarch arrived at the Circulo de las Bellas Artes cultural centre wearing the show-stopping black number with sparkling hoop earrings and strappy sling-back heels.

Earlier in June, Letizia also stunned in chic tailoring by wearing a smart white trouser suit to meet members of the board of trustees of the Princesa De Asturias Foundation at the Royal Palace alongside her husband King Felipe.

Another added: "The OG royal fashionista. Who loves experimenting, and showed us age doesn't matter when it comes to fashion experimenting."

Letizia had another bold fashion moment at King Charles' coronation back in May, when she arrived at a Buckingham Palace reception wearing a gorgeous green Victoria Beckham dress, which was previously worn by Kendall Jenner and Bella Hadid.

The Queen of Spain looked stunning in the flattering midi in a striking lime green colour, arriving for the royal family's pre-coronation reception alongside her husband.

Later, Victoria Beckham herself commented: "It is a great honour to dress the Queen of Spain – always so elegant in one of my dresses!!! She is spectacular!!! Kisses."
