On Friday, Queen Letizia closed out what I like to call Court Dress Week by attending Pascua Militar, a military ceremony. Similar to the two days of Danish New Year receptions, this event calls for a long skirt worn in the daytime.
I think she might be in a bit of a slump with this dress code, honestly. She debuted this Felipe Varela dress in
2014 at a reception for foreign ambassadors, and then wore it again
to this event in 2015. (And the outfit we saw in between -
last year - was pretty meh.) I'll be the first to admit that outfits for these events are a specialized category these days, and repeating just makes sense. But there are still ways to mix it up within the land of repeats, you know?
