Right around the holiday season, we're constantly thinking about attention-grabbing party looks to shop that extend beyond New Year's Eve. It seems like we're not the only ones — Queen Letizia stepped out for two separate events in this floral Felipe Varela number that we admired right away. She attended the Magistral Action awards and later hosted a formal lunch for the Ecuadorian president at the palace in Madrid.
The Spanish royal accessorized her cream and navy sheath — complete with sophisticated details like a collar and buttons down the bodice and sleeves — with sheer tights, patent pumps, a Nina Ricci clutch, and Tous pearl drop earrings. Naturally, we were smitten. Letizia's design wasn't overtly festive, but it was notably flattering and Winter appropriate. If her dress appears to be a sound investment to you too, shop inspired pieces with us ahead.
