Queen Rania's beauty is blinding in $3k dress on King Abdullah's birthday
Queen Rania of Jordan was the definition of a ray of sunshine in a new photograph shared to mark her husband, King Abdullah II of Jordan's 63rd birthday on Thursday.
Taking to Instagram, the glamorous Jordanian royal penned a heartfelt message to her husband of 21 years. In Arabic, she wrote: "Every year you are the dearest to our hearts," adding in English: "Happy birthday! You mean the world to us."
The Queen, 54, looked sublime in a sunshine yellow dress from royally-loved brand, Oscar De La Renta.
Her fit-and-flare dress was complemented by delicate tie-front details, while its fresh daffodil hue made it exceptionally striking.
The $3,178 dress hugged the royal's silhouette with a fitted bodice that fastened with two dainty ties, cinching at the belted waist before falling to a full skirt.
Adding to her exquisite ensemble, Queen Rania paired her dress with the Aquazzura 'Bellezza 105 Satin Mary Jane Pumps' in bright yellow, and carried a vibrant floral-print handbag.
Aside from her unrivalled flair for effortless dressing, the wife of King Abdullah II never steps out without her hair coiffed and curled to perfection - and her royal blowdry looked beautifully styled in bouncy waves.

Together, they share four children: Crown Prince Hussein, Princess Iman, Princess Salma and Prince Hashem.
The royal couple are a devoted team, known for their joint commitment to peace in the Middle East and have been tireless in their efforts to promote international relations.
