Princess Charlene of Monaco epitomised summer style in an all-white ensemble as she and husband Prince Albert III welcomed basketball athletes to a reception at the Palace of Monaco on Saturday.
The royals were pictured smiling and congratulating the AS Monaco Basket (ASM) players alongside their trophy, just days after they won the French Elite Basketball Championship.
The stylish monarch, 45, was wearing a sleeveless silky top and tapered cream trousers, cinched with a silver belt.
Princess Charlene, who is also a former Olympic swimmer was seen with short, cropped hair and subtle make-up, paired with diamond earrings.
Her son, Prince Jaques, was seen looking restless with his arms crossed.

Albert opted for a smart suit with a black blazer and red tie.
The Monaco Tribune reported that ASM won their first French championship this week following the defeat of the Metropolitans of Boulogne-Levallois (92-85).
The event comes after Princess Charlene was spotted looking elegant while taking her twins Prince Jacques and Princess Gabriella for a family day out for the opening of the Historical Sites of the Grimaldis of Monaco
