For her appearance, Queen Letizia donned a long black coat, a printed midi dress and a pair of black boots. However, her shiny diamond earrings stole the show today because of the meaning behind the iconic piece.
Queen Letizia chose the diamond drop earrings that the Cordovan Jewellers Association of San Eloyi gifted her in 2005.
These earrings, which the Spanish monarch has had for 18 years, are made of platinum and feature 17 diamonds.
A couple of months after Letizia married the then Prince Felipe in 2004, she accompanied him to an event in the southern city of Cordoba.
This was the first and only time she donned the jewel honouring the city of the jewellery who created and gifted her the earrings.

The diamond piece was carefully made following the traditional Cordoban filigree technique.
The jewellers also presented her with a stunning gold, diamond and emerald cross as a wedding present in 2004.
For her engagement in Alicante, Letizia chose the same grey and white print dress from Spanish designer Pedro del Hierro that she donned in Viena last year during an official visit.
She combined it with the pair of black boots she recently debuted in Greece and a long black coat from Carolina Herrera.
