Queen Maxima of the Netherlands faced a windy start to her trip to the Taal aan Zee Foundation in the Hague on Wednesday she struggled to hold onto her hat.
The mother-of-three, 52, was visiting the foundation, which translates to 'Language By The Sea' in English, for its tenth anniversary.
The foundation offers Dutch lessons to those for whom it is not their first language, including women, refugees and asylum seekers - and it's a cause very close to the queen's heart.
As Maxima arrived at the language lessons, a large gust of wind nearly stole her hat from the top of her head and she held onto it for the rest of her time outside while laughing.
The royal donned a very eye-catching golden shift dress from Natan couture with a large ruffle decoration on her shoulder.

It is a recycled item in her wardrobe, as Maxima previously wore it for a state visit to Luxembourg and the christening of the Vox Amalia, a boat named after her daughter Princess Catharina-Amalia - both in 2018.
The form fitting dress has long sleeves and an A-line skirt and was cinched in slightly at the waist, falling just above the knee.
Maxima was glowing in the statement gold colour and added a felt capeline hat from Belgian milliner Fabienne Delvigne.
She added a pair of green earrings to add to the chartreuse ensemble, and kept her make-up as radiant as ever.
Maxima today attended a reading lesson and a lesson for visually impaired non-native speakers.
The Argentine-born Queen also reflected on her own experiences learning Dutch and advised students to ask the Dutch people for help with the language.
'Otherwise you will keep making the same mistake,' she said, as reported in royals outlet Vorsten.
Language By The Sea has more than 330 volunteers to help its 1,400 students.

Maxima previously visited the organisation in 2016 and has fostered close ties with the foundation.
In a 2021 interview with NPO in honour of her 50th birthday, she spoke about her own experience learning Dutch in the early days of her relationship with Willem-Alexander.
She said: 'I thought, if I really want or can do this, then I really need to know a lot more about the country, about the position.
'And then I started Dutch lessons in New York... And then I read a lot of books.
'I had a black wig and then I went with my car and a big map and I went all over the Netherlands, alone, and sometimes with a girlfriend.'
Maxima's readiness to learn the Dutch language helped her win popularity with the country when she married Willem-Alexander.
Dutch is her third language: she is also fluent in Spanish and English, and can speak French at a conversational level.
Her visit to the language foundation was the second time this week that Maxima has opted to wear yellow.

She lit up the room in a bright yellow and blue ensemble as she attended the annual King's Day concert in Emmen on Monday.
The mother-of-three was glamorous as ever in a sunny long-sleeve top and satin skirt which cinched at the waist as she joined her husband and other Dutch royals for the celebrated event.
Elsewhere, King Willem-Alexander, 56, looked dapper in a simple black suit and purple tie.
She accessorised with matching pastel heels and a clutch, enhancing her sophisticated look.
Her long, blonde tresses were sleek and straightened and the Maxima opted for a glamorous make-up look that accentuated her eyes.
The King's Day concert is held every year in the days leading up to King Willem-Alexander's birthday. The monarch will turn 57 on 27 April next week.
On his actual birthday, a series of markets and parties are held all across the country.
