If you're as royal-crazy as we are, surely you've heard by now that Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands plans to abdicate her throne on April 30. Next in line? Prince Willem-Alexander, whose wife, Argentinian-born investment banker Princess Maxima (née Zorreguieta), will tango her way to the Queen's throne.
We've been on Princess Maxima style watch since she wore Valentino to her wedding in 2002; with any luck, she'll step up her sartorial game along with this promotion. Or perhaps she'll surrender her signature colors for more somber wardrobe choices... but we're hoping that's not the case, obvi.
See the Princess' prettiest looks below, and ready your predictions. We think a crown will suit her quite nicely. Time to start practicing your wave, Maxima.
