The Belgian Royal Family has released two new portraits this weekend to mark Queen Mathilde's 52nd birthday.
The royal household took to X, formerly know as Twitter, to share news that Mathilde, the first native-born Belgian Queen, is celebrating her special day.
Mathilde wrapped up warm in a white roll neck wool jumper under a navy longline padded jacket, which was cinched at the waist with a belt.
The Queen posed up a storm in the snow at Palace of Laeken - the official residence of the Belgian royal family in Brussels.
Beaming for the camera, the mother-of-four put on a typically stylish display in her new portraits.
The post read: 'The Queen is celebrating her 52nd birthday today. Thank you for your warm congratulations in the middle of winter!'
The royal opted for a natural makeup look, complete with a dash of blusher across her cheeks and a slick of pink lipstick.
The second image offered a full-length shot of the royal, and she casually posed with her hands tucked away into her pockets as she gazed towards the camera.

Another said: 'I wish Her majesty Queen Matilda my best wishes and congratulations. Happy birthday! BE HAPPY!!!'
It comes after the Belgian royal family put on a glamorous display as they attended an annual Christmas Concert held at the Royal Palace in Brussels last month.
The orchestra concert took place in a spectacular room featuring huge chandeliers and a beautifully decorated Christmas tree.
Applauded by upstanding guests as they entered, the beaming family-of-four eventually took their seats on the front row.
Queen Mathilde dazzled in a festive red, duchess satin gown with a high neck and three-quarter length sleeves.
Cinched at the waist, the royal's midi dress featured a voluminous skirt and a subtle criss-cross design.
The mother-of-two completed her ensemble with a pair of pointed toe heels in red suede and a miniature, crystal-encrusted clutch bag.

She added a pair of statement diamond earrings and wore her striking sapphire engagement ring on her left hand.
Mathilde's short, blond hair was styled in a classic blow dry with a side parting.
She kept her make-up simple for the jubilant occasion, brightening her flawless complexion with a slick of pale red lipstick.
The queen's eldest daughter, Crown Princess Elisabeth, 23, followed in her mother's footsteps on Wednesday evening, choosing a complementary crimson gown.
Elisabeth, who is currently working towards her MA in Public Policy at Harvard University, looked typically elegant in her full-length, velvet gown - complete with a slash neckline and three-quarter length sleeves.
The heir to the Belgian throne opted for red accessories, including pointed toe suede heels and a suede clutch bag.
She wore her long, blond hair loose and brushed back behind her ears to reveal a pair of large, dangly red and gold earrings.
Like her mother, Elisabeth kept her make-up simple, wearing little more than a rose tint on her lips and pink blush on her cheeks.
Princess Eléonore, meanwhile, was radiant in a shimmering silver dress with a split on the left side and ruche detailing.
The princess, 16, wore ballet flats on her feet and carried a silver satin clutch bag.
Like her older sister, Eléonore has long, blond hair but she chose to wear it in loose waves rather than brushed back. She added a pair of dainty earrings and wore a subtle gloss on her lips.
King Philippe, 64, looked smart in a grey suit with a crisp white shirt and a pale blue, patterned tie.The monarch chose a double-breasted jacket with a white pocket square.
