Queen Máxima is not afraid to tear up the royal style rule book, and on 3 November she did just that as she headed out for a two-engagement day – and embraced a swift outfit change. First, she visited Haarlem College alongside Judith Tielen, the Dutch Secretary of State for Youth, Prevention and Sport, in connection with the project Leading Locals of MIND us, the Dutch mental health initiative supporting young people, of which Máxima is the honorary chair. According to Royal Fashion Daily on Instagram, the Queen wore a full look by Natan, including the most unexpected vibrant orange top. Orange is a colour that British royal ladies like the Princess of Wales and the Duchess of Edinburgh often avoid. However, King Willem-Alexander's wife, 52, embraced tangerine with full force as she rocked the fuzzy top with an off-the-shoulder panel. There is also significance in her choice of orange as the colour of the Dutch Royal Family, the House of Orange-Nassau which was also used in the orange diamond of the royal's engagement ring. The shoulder-baring top was teamed with a pair of wide-leg textured grey trousers. She also added a series of grey accessories.
