Queen Letizia of Spain looked stunning in a lilac dress with a plunging V-neck as she attended the International Congress of the Spanish Language in Cadiz with her husband King Felipe this afternoon. The 50-year-old monarch accessoried her gorgeous midi-dress with a striking lilac leather handbag by Spanish brand Olivia Mareque and a pair of nude patent slingback heels by Venezuelan designer Carolina Herrera. Her makeup finished off the look with a shimmery smokey eye and a swipe of copper-toned lipstick.
Letizia has been recently recognized for her style as she allows her natural grey hairs to show. As a way to embrace her authentic natural beauty, Letizia has exposed her grey roots to the world, creating a powerful statement in the process. Letizia’s change in beauty standards can undoubtedly help us normalize the idea of grey hair, something that has often been taboo.

Queen Letizia had previously worked as a journalist, and met her now husband King Felipe during a reporting assignment. Her media career spanned several news organisations, including La Nueva España, ABC, EFE, CNN+, and 24 Horas. She even worked for a Mexican publication Siglo 21, based out of Guadelajara.
The King and Queen of Spain will be taking part in various sessions of the conference, with the events being organized by the Cervantes Institute. They will later take part in a lecture on the evening at the Parador Nacional, talking about the ‘Unity and diversity of Spanish: Tradition and the challenge of artificial intelligence’.
Beloved by celebrities and trendsetters, Queen Letizia of Spain is an inspiration to many in her style choices. Letizia’s statement and sophisticated look for the International Congress of the Spanish Language event today is another example of the Spanish queen’s timeless style and grace.
