Queen Letizia of Spain is my royal style icon! I adore how she dresses so effortlessly, no matter the occasion. From her boho chic casual outfits she rocks on vacation, to her power suits in bold colors, and then perfectly fitted & feminine dresses – she never misses. She gives off a polished, assured air that definitely exudes queenliness. I also love that she chooses pieces that are mature, yet still modern and fresh. The Queen is 50 years old, but she doesn’t dress like it! She is an inspiration to me in that it doesn’t matter your age – it can’t stop you from wearing what you love and looking absolutely killer in it.
If you are wanting to channel her queenly energy and chic up your wardrobe, here is everything to know on how to dress like Queen Letizia!

Let’s jump in and break down her style staples when it comes to both her casual and formal ensembles.
Queen Letizia’s Casual Outfit Guide

She also isn’t afraid of wearing pops of color – like that iconic pink patterned mini dress she rocked shown above. If you are wanting to recreate her style, opt for flowy, beachy, and boho patterned dresses. She usually goes for a longer length of dress, but rocks any inseam as long as it isn’t too fitted of a silhouette.
Midi Skirts

Belted Shorts

Espadrille Shoes

The high heels she rocks are beyond gorgeous, but I admit I’m way more jealous of her insane espadrille shoe collection! I love that she sticks to this Spanish style and pairs espadrille wedges, flats, and sandals with all her casual looks. She’s got so many colors – navy, black, brown, hot pink and coral espadrilles (just to name a few).
Straw Tote
