On Thursday, Queen Letizia of Spain embraced monochromatic dressing at the National Innovation and Design Awards Ceremony in Madrid, pairing a burgundy dress with kitten heels in the same rich autumnal shade. 

Her pumps are characterized by an elongated pointed toe and curved arch. The shoe’s tiny heel is slender yet not extremely skinny. A low-cut vamp only covered up Queen Letizia’s toes, revealing the rest of her foot. Much like fellow royal Kate Middleton, Queen Letizia has monochromatic outfit formulas down to a science. For her appearance at the event, which is organized by the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovations and Universities to honor individuals and companies for their achievements in innovation and design, she teamed the wine-colored shoes with a coordinating midi dress.

Queen Letizia’s long-sleeved, high-neck number was crafted from a soft, flowing fabric. The top boasted a loose fit at the waist, which toe the line between relaxed and structured. As for the skirt, the silhouette was breezy and looked to be easy to move around in. Queen Letizia tripled down on maroon, toting around a rectangular clutch made from glossy, crocodile-embossed leather in the deep red color.

The mother of two kept it minimal on the jewelry front, skipping a necklace and accessorizing with three small diamond hoops on each ear. Her wavy, dark brunette hair was styled in a side part, while Queen Letizia’s makeup was pared back.

It’s been a whirlwind week for the queen, who attended a banquet in honor of Haitham Bin Tariq, the sultan and prime minister of Oman, on Tuesday. Clad in a cobalt blue gown, she wowed in a tiara adorned with platinum, pearls and diamonds. The luxe piece has been in Queen Letizia’s family for generations, believed to have been first owned by Queen Maria Christina of Habsburg-Lorraine in 1886. Â
