If you've ever hopelessly thrown your hands in the air while standing in front of the closet, you could probably use a style lesson from Queen Maxima [1]. The Dutch royal sticks to a dress code that's sophisticated but bright and playful too. She starts with a fit-and-flare dress [2] like this Natan Couture number, then chooses eye-catching accoutrements in the exact same shade.

At this year's Holland Festival, the queen accessorized with Natan pumps, a Valentino clutch with a diamond clasp that complemented her bracelets, and a pair of fabulous statement earrings. Queen Maxima almost always opts for chunky jewels [3] as the finishing touch to her look, the final move that helps her appear polished. Read on to zoom in on her latest outfit, and be sure to take a note or two.
