Queen Letizia joins King Felipe in Granada to mark Spain’s National Armed Forces Day

Queen Letizia of Spain was typically stylish in a colourful abstract print skirt  as she joined her husband King Felipe of Spain in Granada today.

The royal, 50, paired the bright midi skirt with a stylish white crossover blouse as the couple honoured troops during Spain’s National Armed Forces Day.

Letizia finished the ensemble with a pair of low, fuchsia heels with a pointed toe, and small handbag in the small colour.

Her accessories complemented the colours in the her skirt, which included bright pink, orange, purple, green, yellow, and blue.

When it came to her hair and make-up, the mother-of-two wore her glossy chestnut locks tied into an elegant, low ponytail.

And she opted for one of her trademark looks, pairing a fresh complexion with a natural pink lip, and brown, smokey eye. 

Meanwhile, her husband King Felipe also looked dapper, opting for full military regalia for the appearance.

Spain’s National Armed Forces Day, which dates back to 1978, is an annual event held to raise awareness around, and recognise the work of, the Armed Forces.

It is widely celebrated across the country, with commemorative events taking place over several days.

The couple’s joint appearance comes after they celebrated their 19th wedding anniversary on May 22.

After dating in secret, Felipe and Letizia announced their surprise engagement before tying the knot at Almudena Cathedral in Madrid on May 22, 2004.

For their big day, Letizia donned a gown boasting a statement high-standing collar and delicate embroidery, which she paired with a veil gifted by her future husband.

And she also wore the glittering Prussian tiara which had been worn by her mother-in-law, then Queen Sofia, on her wedding day in 1962.

The ceremony took place two months after the Madrid train bombings and the pair dedicated their wedding to the victims of the attack.

It’s been a busy week for the Spanish queen, who was snapped at more than one engagement.

Among them was a much more pared back midweek outing, where she was spotted looking casual, yet elegant.

Letizia was snapped in a striped shirt as she stepped out in Madrid for a spot of shopping on Wednesday.

She donned a white, long-sleeved top with black horizontal stripes, paired with black jeans, as she visited the Madrid Book Fair. 

Letizia completed the ensemble with a pair of black pointed ballet pumps and a cross-body black leather bag. 

She wore her chestnut locks loose, and matched the relaxed hair style with a natural make-up look.

During the casual outing, the royal appeared down to Earth, as she stopped to take selfies with people.

When she wasn’t engaging with fans, Letizia, a former journalist, appeared utterly engrossed in the contents of the fair, showing herself to be something of a bookworm.
