LETIZIA, SPANISH STYLE ICON

Letizia, Crown Princess of Spain, was a TV Journalist (Prime Time Night News Slot) prior to her royal marriage. Of course, comparisons with the late Princess Diana are inevitable, you know, G.O.R.G.E.O.U.S. working class girl marries her handsome prince charming et all but in the 4 years since joining Spain's royal family, the petite brunette (who had to don 3" stilettos just to keep up with her 6ft 4" tall husband) has irrefutably come into her own.

Today, Letizia is known as Spain's Queen Of Style and with good reason too. Whether she graces a formal banquet or a walkabout or merely talking an off-duty stroll with her 2 daughters, Letizia always looks like a million bucks. Hey! Just like Diana too, eh? *wink*

This pair of dramatic dingle dangles was thoroughly inspired by Letizia. Her regal yet engaging demeanor. Her mega watt cover girl smile and oh so chic wardrobe. Stylish, classic, 100% red carpet

Couture clusters of Swarovski Crystals given the latest IN Mystic Heat Treatment as they tumble from Hand-Hammered 14K Gold Filled Shepherd's Hooks. The backs are slightly curved to ensure no accidental slippage whilst the front loops are made intentionally Art Deco-esque, and will sit comfortably on your lobes, ensuring that your experience with Letizia the earrings is a lightweight one

Holding court toward the center are Intricate Hoops, wrapped twice over with more 14K Gold Filled Wire in both a tight weave as well as a looser Crochet style. These are given a spruce of color with amazing Faceted Peridot Rondelles, really petite in size being only 2.5mm to 3mm. Peak closer and you'll see the loveliest Blue Grey Topaz Onion Briolettes winking right back at ya! Lovely new stones on the market and totally gorgeous!

Finally, AMAZING Mystic Labradorite Briolettes make an appearance and wow the eyes of beholders. These are truly BEAUTIFUL and I am so so SO glad I managed to grab hold of one strand because they sure did disappear uber quickly!

So there you have it, my interpretation of Letizia, Spain's Queen Of Style. I can also guarantee you that these babies will put some serious sparkle onto your lobes

Letizia, Spanish Style Icon the earrings were made from a total of 15ft of 14K Gold Filled Wire in two different gauges. Chains used are also 14K Gold Filled.
