\n\tQueen Letizia of Spain<\/a> kicked off her July calendar in a relaxed business casual ensemble finished with her go-to espadrilles<\/a>. The royal paid a visit to the Zarzuela Palace to speak with an audience of professionals working in the field of eating disorders on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

\n\tAs usual, the Spanish queen returned to one of her favorite shoe brands: Calzados Pic\u00f3n. Letizia is known for supporting Spanish brands and repeatedly returns to the same shoe styles. For this appearance, she opted for the Calzados Pic\u00f3n Espadrille<\/a> Marina DUO Wedges in navy blue.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe espadrilles<\/a> feature a leather upper, synthetic lining and a cushioned leather insole. The shoe is made with a natural jute fibre sole with a slight platform heel that measures two inches in height. The Marina style features a round toe design and a V-shaped vamp, as well as a sling-back strap with wrap-around laces. The shoes retail for around $100.<\/p>\n

\n\tLetizia is known for smart dressing while fulfilling her royal duties, with a knack for balancing casual comfort and professional polish. While espadrilles<\/a> might not be a popular choice to pair with business attire, she dressed the shoes up by matching them with navy blue high-waisted trousers.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe trousers were paired with a crisp white button-down shirt with sharp cuffs on the sleeves. She frequently pairs those types of trousers with blouses and smart pumps for a polished look, but the Calzados Pic\u00f3n made the look more feminine and approachable. The queen has been a frequent supporter of Calzados Pic\u00f3n, and the brand returned the favor by creating a 3.5-inch-tall espadrille wedge and naming the style \u201cLetizia.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Queen Letizia of Spain kicked off her July calendar in a relaxed business casual ensemble finished with her…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":284066,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[18645,108929,23676,9,24,63,14407,122,124,123],"class_list":["post-284065","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-queens","tag-celebrity-shoe-style","tag-espadrilles","tag-footwear-news","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc","tag-queen-letizia","tag-queens","tag-queens-headlines","tag-queens-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/284065","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=284065"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/284065\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/284066"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=284065"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=284065"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=284065"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
