Queen Maxima of the Netherlands offered a cheery wave as she arrived to attend a financial meeting in The Hague this morning.

The Dutch royal, 46, worked business chic in a grey ensemble, injecting a stylish splash of colour with matching brown accessories.

The mother-of-three was seen arriving at performing arts theatre Koninklijke Schouwburg for the start of the National Week of Money and Global Money Week in the city.

Queen Maxima of the Netherlands offered a wave as she attended a financial meeting in The Hague on Monday

Global Money Week encourages a greater public understanding of finances, and sees primary schools highlight money matters, livelihoods and entrepreneurship.

Arriving at the venue, Maxima opted for tailored dress attire, slipping into a grey knee-length shift dress.

The fitted piece was cinched in at the waist, and embellished with a mustard feathered collar.

Coordinating her look, Maxima teamed it with a pair of suede brown pumps and a matching envelope clutch.

Wearing her blonde hair in a sleek side parting around her face, she opted for a touch of bronzer and statement dark eyeliner.

Walking the blue carpet that was laid out for her arrival, Maxima gave fans a friendly wave before disappearing inside the building.

Once inside the venue, the royal took to the stage to kick off National Week of Money and the Global Money Week in front of students.

An international financier by training, Máxima was born in Argentina and married into the Dutch royal family in 2002, three years after meeting her husband-to-be in Seville, Spain.

The King and Queen are parents to three daughters; Catharina-Amalia, 14, Alexia, 12, and Ariane, 10.

Despite reportedly having no inkling that Willem-Alexander was heir to the throne when the pair first met, she eventually became Queen consort when her husband ascended to the throne.

Willem-Alexander became king after his mother, Beatrix, abdicated in April 2013 after 33 years as reigning monarch.
