Queen Maxima looked up-beat this morning as she enjoyed musical performances from local children in 's-Hertogenbosch, The Netherlands.

The Dutch royal wore a cheerful orange pencil dress with bright earrings to match and a black and white mac as she visited the NPO Radio 4 station to launch a new programme Classic Shows.

The Argentinian-born mother-of-three carried a patent black clutch and wore matching heeled pumps as she was greeted by fans.
