On Friday, the eternally chic Queen Letizia looked resplendent as she was pictured at an event for the World Red Cross and Red Crescent Day. Held at the Museo Universidad de Navarra in Spain, the event saw the 53-year-old in an unintentionally retro look.
The mother-of-two wore a pair of black cropped trousers by Boss, which looked rather like Capri pants. She teamed the sleek trews with a black blouse, also by the German label, and a pair of kitten heels by Pretty Ballerinas.

Letizia's love of pink
Letizia is widely considered one of the most fashion-forward European royals on the scene, thanks to her penchant for trying out asymmetrical silhouettes and bold colours.

For the ceremony, three generations of the family gathered: Queen Sofía, King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia, and Crown Princess Leonor and Infanta Sofía. The Order of the Golden Fleece is one of the oldest and most prestigious orders of chivalry across the continent, and the highest distinction awarded by the King of Spain.

It featured a jacket with strikingly structured and slightly puffed shoulders, and a figure-hugging midi skirt. To round off her ensemble, she brought out a matching bag and pink patent leather pumps from Magrit, as well as rose gold and diamond earrings from ethical Spanish brand Gold & Roses.
