Prince Felipe and Princess Letizia were out and about in Madrid yesterday for the annual Pascua Militar ceremony, but without their most recent companion — Felipe’s beard! Looks like Prince Philippe of Belgium won the beard-off of 2009.
The Pascua Militar is held every year at the Royal Palace; the king and queen receive government and military leaders. I quite like the red gown that Letizia chose for this year’s ceremony — very princess-court chic, no?

I liked his beard at first, but I must say that I am glad to see it go.
Crown Princess Letizia’s gown is b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l !
Agree for the red dress. Georgeous!
