    On Hola magazine's article regarding the new Ansorena fleur de lys tiara, Queen Sofia would have said: "Es preciosa!" (Its beautiful!) when seing this tiara for the first time...

    Only time will tell, but the begining of the reign would be a great ocasion for the new Queen to wear it for the first time. It is supposedly in the vaults for several years now.

    : Was it ever officially confirmed that Queen
    : Letizis's "own" fleur-de-lys tiara
    : really exists? Or is it just a rumour spread
    : on the net?
    :
    : We know that the diamond fleur-de-lys exists
    : and has been regularly used as a brooch. But
    : what about the tiara itself? We have never
    : seen it, nor did we have a confirmation from
    : the Casa Real about this supposed gift from
    : Felipe to Letizia.
    :
    : I remain puzzled by the very clumsy design
    : of the tiara - more adapted, in my humble
    : opinion, to a beauty pageant contest than to
    : the creation of a skilled, renowned and
    : century-old royal jeweller...

    : The central diamond fleur-de-lys used as a
    : brooch:

    : You are right Stefan, I was forgetting the
    : new
    : fleur de lys tiara!
    : I would be a nice statement for the new
    : Queen to attend her first oficial gala as
    : such, wearing her own tiara.
    : Previously she only wore the fleur de lys
    : central motif as a brooch. I'm keeping my
    : fingers crossed, and expect maybe she'll
    : surprise us someway .

    : I would also think the shell tiara would be
    : nice for a change. Or perhaps her new tiara.
    : The floral wreath tiara suits Letizia
    : perfectly but she has used it soo often in
    : the past that a change would be nice.
    : Probably it will also depend if Queen Sofia
    : also attends.

    : I would not expect any outstanding glitter
    : at
    : the Chile visit, nor big jewelry surprises.
    : But the Queen has plenty of more modern
    : jewelry pieces and can surprise us.
    :
    : I'm certainly not expecting Queen Letizia to
    : wear the "joyas de pasar", I'm
    : guesing they are reserved for visits from
    : reigning monarchs or specially important
    : visits. Thats when Queen Sofia wore them
    : also.
    :
    : My guess would be the floral tiara (that
    : suits her wonderfuly), her wedding earrings,
    : perhaps a diamond bracelet. Not sure she
    : will wear a necklace, it would depend also
    : on the cleavage of her chosen dress.
    :
    :
    :
    : But I really would love to see her wear
    : again the Foam Waves tiara, worn only once
    : as Pss of Astúrias.
    :
    :
    :
    : The Prussian tiara she wore as bride doesn't
    : suit her so well, imho.
    :
    : Lets see what smaller tiara Queen Letizia
    : will borrow from Queen Sofia (as we know
    : these tiaras are personal property of the
    : former Queen).

    : It is, to say the truth, hardly a surprise.
    : Letizia, Mathilde and Maxima all follow,
    : jewellerywise, the path that they had
    : already followed when they were Crown
    : princesses - and, to some extent, the trend
    : set by their respective forerunners.
    :
    : I agree with Gert-Jan: on the chapter of
    : jewels, Maxima is the best! It is not just
    : that she wears the jewels that are at her
    : disposal. She visibly enjoys wearing jewels,
    : she loves playing with them and taking
    : advantage of their potential of versatility,
    : and she adds new pieces to the collection! A
    : true delight for this board!
    :
    : Regarding Queen Letizia, and the level of
    : glitter which should be the "rule"
    : for King Philip VI's reign, we should have
    : an idea very soon: as posted by Pedro on the
    : GREMB, the President of Chile, Michelle
    : Bachelet, is scheduled to pay a state visit
    : to Spain at the end of this month of
    : October:
