Princess of Asturias Awards 2024

[Emac0914]

Much better this time for Leonor - think a well-fitted power suit will be her thing.  Love her hair up like that, with those pretty earrings!  And Sofia has heels on and looks more adult, less plain-Jane teenager - yay!!  Guess it’ll take time for both girls to develop their own style but at least they’re not always wearing hand-me-downs from their mother’s closet.  They’re both taller, anyways.

Letizia, after some very nice dresses, now looks ridiculous in a black sack with a one-shoulder plume that overwhelms her petite frame

The Queen and the princesses all look dressed for different events and seasons. 

Letizia looks ridiculous. That dress overwhelms her and is completely out of synch with the rest of the group.

Felipe and Letizia certainly seem to have managed the whole “heir and the spare” thing brilliantly. Sofia seems like a lovely girl who is genuinely close to and proud of her sister.
