Flag Day 2024

05 September 2024

Every year on September 5th, we honor those who are or have been missioned abroad. To honor their professional effort in some of the worlds areas of conflict.

The royal couple have been attending the Flag Day for many years. This is their first as King and Queen of Denmark. They attended a ceremony at Kastellet in Copenhagen and honored Danish soldiers who died or are lost in battle with a wreath.

Afterwards, the King and Queen joined a memorial service at Holmens Church.

This is an event that deserves a moment of silence. The course deserves to be the main focus. With Flag Day we honor Danish soldiers sent abroad to fight. Danish soldiers who have died or may be lost in battle. To their friends and families. I don't feel like commeting on style and fashion today. It is about much more important things. Let it speak for itself.

One minute in silence...

Mary looked like a shining star! I always adore this Moss & Spy dress. The detailing are so exquisite and delicate. The lace work is incredible. It is the forth time she wears the dress. First was in 2019 at a business promotion visit in Paris in October. Then at the opening of 'Mind the Music' in 2021 and again in 2023 at an official dinner. Which outfit do you fancy most?

She beautifully accessories her elegant dress with a brand new hairpiece from Ellen Hunter. About now, she owns six of these stunning combs. I bet you, more are coming. Love the combo of soft curls and a little shimmer.

The custom-made Dulong Fine Jewelry earrings are a perfect match. Did you know that these earrings comes with a variety of different pendants? - diamond, rose quartz, amethyst. She also wore fine golden bangles and some other sparkly bracelets.

Midnight blue Gianvito Rossi pumps and a matching blue satin box clutch from Prada. What is not to like? Think this is my favorite outfit worn with this dress.

Meeting with the Advisory Committee

29 August 2024

Queen Mary hosted a meeting for the Queen Mary Centers Advisory Committee at Kancellihuset at Fredensborg.

The meeting was centered around green solutions. One specific project was discussed. It's an initiative to bring scientists and students to work in closer relations with practitioners of green solutions outside of their usual workspace - laboratories and auditoriums.

The Queen Mary Center is all about knowledge through partnerships to create changes.

Mary really did look good in her simple white linen Bagutta blouse and black wide-legged trousers. Can't say anything bad - other than, I wish she would soon wear one of her other blouses. Think we have seen the Bagutta blouses enough at this point. How would you style black trousers?

Nevertheless, I like her casual look. Ponytail, Gucci glasses and golden Dulong Fine Jewelry jewellery. Her choice in jewellery made a comfortable outfit way more stylish. Perfect for a meeting. The shirt diamond necklace is Halberstadt. 

I see a second ring featuring a green stone. She has a few similar rings, but I not sure if it's new or reused. The diamond band is Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. Imagine she's wear black pumps.

Summer tour with Dannebrog

Day 4. Vejle

22 August 2024

A day in Vejle

King Frederik and Queen Mary have arrived to Vejle. Dannebrog docked in Vejle harbour and the couple were warmly welcomed. The official welcoming took place at the city hall.

They paid a visit to Kong Gauers Gård which is both a daycare and nursing home. It was a wonderful to see how everybody lit up when they saw the King and Queen. Both young and old.

Lunch was enjoyed at Fjordenhus. After a great lunch, the couple visited Welcon. Welcon primarily work with constructions in steel for the international renewable energy sector based on wind turbines. In connection to that, they visited Vejle Climate park and The Flying kayak club.

Mary really looked beautiful when the couple visited Vejle! I love how she matched blue with blue - and a little dusty pink. Makes a stunning outfit. The elegant blouse is a reuse from Proenza Shoulder and the fine skirt is Baum und Pferdgarden. Also a reuse. Her short black coat is from Prada and the long beige trenchcoat is a new one from Harris Wharf London. She first wore it yesterday in Assens.

She styled the outfit with an amazing wide-brimmed hat. Who feels the 60's vibe? She has a similar one from Susanne Juul which makes me think it cloud be her design as well.

Look closer and you will se quite a few pieces of jewellery. A golden bracelet from Dulong Fine Jewelry, a huge diamond ring and delicate diamond earrings.

I mentioned dusty pink accessories as well. Her magnificent Gianvito Rossi sling-backs and leather handbag from Max Mara made the look even more sparkeling. Later on, she changed to a pair of Prada ballet flats.

Reception on board Dannebrog

Last but not least, the royal couple hosted one last reception on board Dannebrog with specially invited guest from Vejle. A great way to end a wonderful summer tour!

Somehow, I am more impressed by her evening reception outfits and this one is outstanding! Mary was wearing a brand new Saloni dress. The details are exquisite. She wears it with such perfection. A simple white dress with lovely floral embroidery. What is not to like?

She matched the new dress with simplified earrings from the Queen Ingrid's ruby parure. We also get a glimpse of her Halberstadt and Dulong Fine Jewelry, such as a diamond ring from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen.

Day 3. Assens

21 August 2024

A day in Assens

The King and Queen have arrived in Assens. Danneborg docked in Assens harbour. The couple were driven by carriage to the official welcoming ceremony at the City Hall.

Before having lunch at Skovpavillionen, they visited the Peter Willemoes school and Lundager forest. The couple then visited Assens Forsyning - the 'Forsynings park' and 'WaterCare'.

They had already seen a little part of the city but later they participated a city walk in the town of Assens.

I kinda like the elements of this days outfit and still something is nagging me. Can't really pin-point it because the new coral printed Zimmermann dress is indeed lovely. So is the old linen blazer from Ralph Lauren. Even the Etro belt matched perfectly! What are your thoughts?

Mary had chosen a beautiful hairpiece made by Danish milliner Susanne Juul. She has created many hats and headpieces for Mary over the years. This one has been worn before. Actually, Mary first wore it in 2005, when pregnant med Crown Prince Christian!

She embraced the look with golden necklaces from Halberstadt and Dulong Fine Jewelry. The earrings I have never been able to identify. Maybe one day.

The elegant sling-backs are Gianvito Rossi and the fine leather handbag is Max Mara. At one point, Mary changed shoes to Prada flats. She also added a little warmth by wearing a brand new Harris Wharf London trenchcoat.

Reception on board Dannebrog

Before leaving Assens, the King and Queen hosted another reception on Board Dannebrog. When the couple were about to go off to the next destination in Vejle, they were honored the most beautiful way with a small concert right there at the harbor.

We don't have much from the reception when it comes to photos. We have a few video clips showing that Mary wore a plain white Jesper Høvring blouse and a brand new green skirt with some kind of print. To me it looks like a full midi with dots.

Having seen the video over and over again, I think she was wearing around green earrings (possibly new) and a reused emerald ring surrounded by a couple of diamonds.
