Queen Letizia Just Gave This Major Pants Trend Her Royal Approval

Royals don't always wear leather, but when they do, we hope they do it like Queen Letizia. The Spanish royal, who isn't afraid of a fashion risk, looked right at ease in a pair of leather culottes for an introduction to the Princess of Asturias Foundation members on Wednesday.

Far from Kate Middleton's more traditional, ladylike look, Queen Letizia's contemporary twists are the kind you'd expect from a style star like Olivia Palermo. In fact, we're pretty sure we've seen Olivia rock those pants before. Still, the queen is sure to give her fashion-forward outfits a polished counter. Note the classic button-down and pumps to finish off her trendy pants. Hey, if leather pants got her royal approval, we're sure you can pull off a pair too. Read on to see how Queen Letizia's wearing hers, then get inspired to shop your own.
