Queen Máxima of the Netherlands brought a touch of glamor to her winter wardrobe this afternoon as she wore a multicolored floral coat to pose for photos with her family at a historic Amsterdam church.
The Queen, 51, who is known for her bold, colorful style, has stayed true to a coat she has been spotted wearing several times over the past two years as she posed for family photos with husband King Willem-Alexander and their daughters. Amalia, 18, Alexia, 17, and Ariane, 15.
The Argentine royal family showed their deep affection for their daughters and put their arm around Ariane for one of the photos taken in Amsterdam’s 15th-century Niewe Kirk Church, a stone’s throw from the Royal Palace.

Beneath her light coat, the Queen wore a burgundy dress with matching suede heels and accessorised with large earrings set with jade and garnet gemstones.
To her left, Princess Ariane contrasted her mother’s bright outfit with a monochromatic look, wearing a black top, white trousers and a black and white checked blazer.
Keeping it simple, Alexia wore a black suit with a white shirt adorned with a charm necklace and wore her auburn locks open to pucker her face.
Meanwhile, heir to the throne Amalia opted for a dark green suit with a white shirt.

The King and Queen’s eldest daughter took a little time out from her studies to take part in the photoshoot after starting her studies at the University of Amsterdam in early September.
Unfortunately, although originally slated for the Princess of Orange to live with peers in student accommodation, security threats forced her to move out of her dormitories just weeks into the semester.
Speaking about the arrangements during a visit to Sweden, King Willem-Alexander said the family had found it “very difficult”, while Máxima revealed the threats had had “enormous consequences” on her life.
Euronews reported the Queen said: “She hasn’t left the house. That means she doesn’t live in Amsterdam, she can’t really go out. The consequences are very hard for them.’
Despite a turbulent few months for the heir to the Dutch throne and her family, they were all smiles in the family portraits, taken in front of a horse-drawn carriage.
The king and queen had a turbulent week after spending Monday through Wednesday in Athens, where they were on a state visit.
They were received by Greek President Katerina Sakellaropoulou and attended several events with her during their three-day visit.
