I wonder how Letizia feels about taking on such high profile religious events.

letizia's purse is so lovely....

Letizia is fantastic and beautiful. She looks more like she did around the engagment in 2003. I think the lead-up to the wedding and the months after made her very exhausted. She seems to be back to herself after having Leonor.

 

[soCal girl]

I've noticed that Letizia has a thing for her hair. I was looking through some old threads and there's a lot of pictures of her touching her hair. It's not a bad thing because I do that too but just something I saw. Her hair is gorgeous down (that seems to be hairstyle she's sporting recently) but I wish she put it up more often. I was looking through Letizia's Hair Styles thread and she some beautiful ones pinned up with curls. I didn't really like the recent up-do's she's done. Her hair blows very nicely though.

I like how Letizia is back working and is looking wonderful. A child can do magic to many people's lives. It usually makes a person look EXTREMELY tired or really glowing. Letizia seems to have gone towards the glowing side.
