Queen Máxima of the Netherlands looked typically cheerful in a canary yellow ensemble today as she continued her work on financial inclusion in Zoetermeer in the west of the country.
The Dutch royal, 53, made an entrance in a lemon-coloured coat, which she wore open to reveal an equally striking cowl neck top and a pair of wide-leg trousers, both in the same bright shade.
Máxima appears to be a huge fan of the colour after she was recently pictured in a yellow silk dress at a tech event in Singapore.
The mother-of-three teamed her outfit with a pair of tan, round toe boots and a matching clutch bag, which she carried under her arm.
The beaming queen completed her look with a pair of gold statement earrings.

It has been a busy week for the Dutch queen – only last Thursday she was in Singapore for the FinTech festival.
Máxima also met with Singapore’s Prime Minister Lawrence Wong at the Istana presidential palace in her capacity as the United Nations Secretary-General’s Special Advocate for Financial Health (UNSGSA).

She has been seen in the dress several times since 2015, which was elegantly decorated with a woven floral motif, and complemented with a flattering belt.
