Queen Maxima ditched midi dresses and skirts in favour of flares for her latest royal outing, going bold when it came to accessorising with a statement necklace and Hermes clutch.
Choosing a T-shirt and flared trousers combo as she visited a playground in Zevenbergschen Hoek this week, Queen Maxima channelled pink pastels with both her clothes and accessories.
A classic summer colour trend, the hue was ultra-flattering on the Dutch Queen and highlighted her blonde locks as she toured the small village, opting for the pretty pink top with her crisp white trousers.
