Letizia, 49, attended an evening reception at the Balearic Society in Mallorca on Thursday and amazed onlookers in a vibrant, flowing, off-the-shoulder red-orange gown with a dramatic thigh-high split and towering high-heeled espadrilles. It was impossible to overlook how toned and radiant the queen looked. Her gold accessories only made her glow even more.

Her teenage daughter Leonor's fashion-forward look delighted fans, who have hardly seen her since she moved to Wales last year to complete her studies. The Princess debuted a pretty, retro-style white mini dress and she rocked high-heeled espadrilles which looked just like her mother and Duchess Kate's.

Leonor definitely made those shoes her own, establishing this royal family as one to watch for style inspiration.
