Queen Maxima of the Netherlands looked angelic in a white peplum top and cream skirt for a panel discussion at the UN in the Philippines, as part of a three-day visit to the Southeast Asian country.
The Dutch royal, who has been involved in talks with development partners to help improve financial inclusion in the country, looked her usual glamorous self for the visit in a floral-print top.
The mother of three paired her summery look with a knee-length beige skirt and subtle makeup that included rosy cheeks and a nude lip.
She accessorized with a sparkling pearl brooch that matched perfectly with her sparkling white pearl earrings.

The queen’s golden blonde hair was casually swept back in a relaxed yet sophisticated clip.
Máxima, a trained economist with a career in international finance and emerging markets, was appointed Special Advocate of the United Nations Secretary-General (UNSGSA) for Inclusive Finance for Development in 2009.
The queen first visited the Southeast Asian country in 2015, where she began working to help improve “financial inclusion” for “all kinds of people.”
Since then, progress has been made in the Philippines, where the number of adults with a bank account has now increased from 26.6 percent to 51.4 percent in 2021.
The Dutch royals were at a roundtable with development partners with the aim of improving financial inclusion in the country.

However, the Philippines remains one of the ten countries without access to financial services.
‘There is still 40 percent of the population that really does not have access and they are clearly the people who are furthest away, the farmers and also the women. So we have to work a lot more on that aspect,” the Queen stated during her visit.
The Queen visited Talim Island in the Philippines yesterday on the first day of her trip to the archipelago.
Her first day look featured a purple, green and blue floral print dress with three-quarter sleeves, while her woven sandals combined deeper shades of blue and purple.
Máxima complemented her outfit with a blue handbag and a pair of earrings with large blue stones, as well as several gold and silver bracelets and a silver watch.
With her blonde hair down to her shoulders, the Dutch royal was happy and relaxed despite the heat thanks to a large handheld fan.
The Queen, who had received a decorative garland with a large yellow flower, was seen greeting children, talking to local people and even standing in a small fishing boat.

His trip to the Philippines comes after a busy week of commitments in the Netherlands.
Last Thursday night, Máxima wowed in a striking one-shoulder jumpsuit while attending a ceremony celebrating the best of Dutch business.
With a diamond brooch on the left shoulder, the royal’s cream satin gown was nothing short of spectacular.
It was therefore the perfect choice for the ‘Oscars of the Dutch business community’, the King Willem I Award, which was presented in the northeastern city of Zwolle.
Maxima’s eye-catching wide-leg jumpsuit, which showed off her toned physique, featured a skinny belt in the same cream satin with a rectangular buckle.
Queen Máxima of the Netherlands seemed in high spirits as she visited a health institution and school with her husband, King Willem-Alexander.
The mother of three, 52, seemed as excited to meet the children as she was to see the royals in Groningen.
She was photographed smiling and laughing with primary school children, who wore hats with paper crowns in the colors of the Dutch flag.
