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.

Day 2. Ærø


20 August 2024

A day at Ærø

King Frederik and Queen Mary have arrived at the island of Ærø. They are on their first official summer tour as King and Queen. The couple traveled by Dannebrog - the royal yacht.

They were warmly welcomed at Marstal harbour on Ærø and were officially welcomed at the Motor fabric Marstal.

Before hiking in Voderup Klit, the couple visited 'Ellen' in Søby harbour. Ellen is a ferry sailing on electricity. King Frederik and Queen Mary also paid a visit at Søbygaard - a visitor's center for Geopark.

Later, they went for a walk down Ærøkøbing square to Ærøkøbing harbour.



I have to say: what on earth is going on with this outfit? Why blue heels? Why this hat? What is your first impression?

Mary had chosen to wear a reused plain white Bagutta blouse and a brand new soft brown JOSEPH midi skirt. I kinda like this combo but I think a warmer colored blouse would have been better. Lately, she has been truly fond of wearing her Bagutta blouses. She has three - a white one, light blue and striped white and blue.

She accessorized the outfit with a Canopy Bay by Deborah Hutton hat and white pearl earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry. Her two golden necklaces, bracelets and ring are also by Dulong Fine Jewelry. The third shorter necklace is Halberstadt.

More interesting is her new Jimmy Choo pumps. I have never really been a huge fan of kitten pumps. Why even make an effort of don't just make them flats. I don't quite get them. Nevertheless, I think these new Jimmy Choo's are pretty cool but do not match the rest of her outfit. When hiking Mary changed to NIKE sneakers. Again, why pink sneakers? Why not her white NIKE sneakers.

Reception at Dannebrog

After a long day on Ærø, the royal couple hosted yet another reception on board Dannebrog at Ærøkøbing harbour where the royal yacht is docked. It was around dinnertime.



Oh.. this evening outfit is magnificent! Love it. The Etro dress is so beautiful with the impressive colorful embroidery. She has worn it twice. At a private dinner at Wayfair Club Oswald in 2023 on occasion of the coronation in Great Britain. Then again in May 2024 for the presentation of the 'Léonie Sonnings Music Prize'.

Mary beautifully embraced the style with an elegant updo and turquoise earrings and ring. The earrings hold a lovely story. They belonged to her mother-in-law Queen Margrethe and were gifted to her for her 50th birthday. The delicate necklace is Halberstadt.

 Summer tour with Dannebrog

Day 1. Bornholm


19 August 2024

Arrival at Rønne harbour

This morning, King Frederik and Queen Mary arrived with Danneborg at Rønne harbour at the island of Bornholm. It is their first day summer touring around Denmark. Bornholm is their first stop of four. Tomorrow they will dock at Ærø - another small island.

The royal couple were then taken for a carriage ride around Rønne. So many people had showed up to get a glimpse of the King and Queen.

They were officially welcomed at Rønne Theater. Later on, the couple visited Bornholm's Center of Craftsmanship in Hasle.



Didn't really know what to expect of her outfit today, but this was not it. Nevertheless, I really like what she was wearing visiting Rønne at Bornholm. Mary dazzled in a reused white Paul & Joe blouse and simple black wide-legged trousers. That brand new long tweed vest has been identified as WEILL. I see where she is going with this outfit but somehow I do not feel that she quite successed. What is your opinion?

Mary differently nailed the accessory-part! Her stunning navy blue hat is a creation by Jane Taylor. They perfectly matched the suede pointed pumps from Jimmy Choo.

The diamond earrings are beloved ones from Sophie Bille Brahe and the three golden necklaces are Halberstadt and Dulong Fine Jewelry. Seems like she is very fond of the trio. Same goes with the bracelet. Two of them are also from Dulong Fine Jewelry and her shiny ring is Rebekka Notkin.

A day at Bornholm

After a quite change of clothes, the couple showed up at Ekkodalen. A famous spot to see when visiting Bornholm. They went for a walk from Ekkodalen to Hareløkke.

King Frederik and Queen Mary visited 'Food Bornholm'. They also enjoyed outdoor lunch in Hareløkke. Later on, they visited the beautiful Østerlars Church famous for its found shape going back to the Nights Templar.

Before spending a little time off before hosting a reception on board Dannebrog, they couple visited 'Det Gamle Elværk - Baltic Energy Island'.



What is not to like? - the couple are wearing matching trousers! That is so cute. Mary's trousers are differently new. They look like rust red linen trousers. Any ideas where to find them? I'd love to hear your thoughts. She styled them with a new white Closed blouse. Love the casual vibe, especially when she added her structured Harris Wharf London blazer.

Walking in Ekkodalen, Mary wore her cool soft pink NIKE sneakers. Later on, she changed to a pair of old ballet flats from Prada. Wish I was a ballet-flat-girl. I'm not. Are you?

The fine golden jewellery are from Sophie Bille Brahe, Halberstadt, Dulong Fine Jewelry and Rebekka Notkin. Her chic tortoise-like sunglasses are Michael Kors. Mary first wore them on a visit to Mali in 2017.

Reception at Dannebrog

90 guests were specially invited to attend an evening reception at Danneborg with King Frederik and Queen Mary as hosts. Their way of thanking the people of Bornholm.



We only have a few photos from the reception showing the couple waving goodby from the royal yacht. What strike me, is the couple. They good so happy and comfortable. Wish we had some photos of Mary's evening outfit but at least we have something to work with.

Mary looked beautiful in a reused ArtFusion Copenhagen dress. A soft pink floral dress first worn at Copenhagen Fashion Summit in 2018. A year later, she wore the magnificent dress again for a dinner honoring actors of sustainable fashion. Mary embraced todays outfit wearing the same golden belt. Perfectly matched with her Dulong Fine Jewelry bracelets.

Meeting with the Mary Foundation


15 August 2024

Six months have passed and it was time for a status with the Mary Foundation and to discuss the next part of 2024. Events to attend, analysis to make and engage in new partnerships. These are some of the things the foundation will work with.

In her post, Queen Mary mentions how she looks forward to publish a new analysis about children's digital communities.



Mary is always so well-dressed! I'm impressed every time we see her. Especially, her more 'unofficial' outfits. Like the one she wore at the meeting with the Mary Foundation board at Frederik VIII's Palace at Amalienborg.

She wore this incredible Sandro dress with golden jewellery from Halberstadt and Dulong Fine Jewelry. Do you remember when she first wore the dress? It was on October 31st 2022, when the couple went on a business promotion visit to Vietnam.

Her favorite glasses are from Gucci.

Day 8.

The Olympic Games 2024


04 August 2024

Queen Mary spend her last day in Paris attending dressage event at Versailles. She was accompanied by Princess Benedikte and her two good friends Helle Trolle and Malou Skeel.

It is not the first time the Queen and Princess Benedikte have teamed up. They also met yesterday for a very important dressage event participated by Nanna Skodborg Merrald, Daniel Bachmann Andersen and the winning team member, Cathrine Laudrup-Dufour.


She really looked wonderful in a reused outfit from Athé Vanessa Bruno and Britt Sisseck. I adore the match of a simple white top and those chic denim-like trousers. The brown leather belt complete the look beautifully! The belt is on my "most wanted list" of findings I wanna do.

Mary embraced the outfit by wearing her Canopy Bay by Deborah Hutton hat and cool Celine sunglasses. These sunglasses are rather new. She first wore them on July 30th. The stunning golden earrings and bangles are creations by Danish goldsmith Dulong Fine Jewelry. She has designed quite a few pieces for Mary the last 20 years - among others, her wedding earrings and the ruby ring matching Queen Ingrid's Ruby Parure.

Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen is the creator of her fine and elegant diamond band.

 Day 7.

The Olympic Games 2024


03 August 2024

Dressage at Versailles

It was a big day for the Danish team of Daniel Bachmann Andersen, Cathrine Laudrup-Dufour and Nanna Skodborg Merrald when participating the dressage final on August 3rd at Versailles in Paris.

Queen Mary and her two close friends Helle Trolle and Malou Skeel supported the Danish team being present at the final. So was Princess Benedikte and her lady-in-waiting Countess Mette Ahlefeldt-Laurvig.

Denmark won silver because of Cathrine Laudrup-Dufour's amazing performance. Congratulations to Cathrine and the rest of the Danish dressage team!



Maybe it paid off wearing red and white? That is what Mary did. She wore a beautiful (new?) white dress and her bright red Vero Moda blazer - designed for the Danish teams participating the Olympic Games this year. She styled the fine dress with a super chic new belt. I really like her new belt. She has added a few to the collection lately. I still do not know where it is from.

Mary embraced the winner outfit with golden earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry and elegant necklaces from Halberstadt and Dulong Fine Jewelry. The fine diamond ring is Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. Once again, Mary carried her chic beige Prada bag. Really like it!

I am sure she wore sandals from Hermés. The more I study them, I think she wore a different color than on day 4. These seems more 'pale' than her rosy ones from her revisiting Paris on June 31st.

Handball match: Denmark VS the Republic of Korea

Later on, King Frederik joined his wife attending the women's handball match between Denmark and the Republic of Korea. They were one big cheer - of course supporting the Danish team. Queen Mary's blouse proved that. She wore a white t-shirt with 'DENMARK' printed on it.


Mary styled her cool t-shirt with lovely green trousers and a reused denim button-down from POLO Ralph Lauren. Actually, she wore this earlier in Paris on August 1st attending a rowing competition. Her fine scarf is part of the Vero Moda collection designed for the Danish team participating the Olympics. Great little detail.

She choose to wear the same golden bracelets from Dulong Fine Jewelry for the handball match. My guess is that she would also have been wearing golden necklaces as previous days.

Handball match: Denmark VS Hungary

Queen Mary was accompanied by Helle Trolle and Malou Skeel when attending a handball match between Denmark and Hungary for men. The match took place at Paris South Arena.

Numerous Danish politicians, like former Prime Minster Lars Løkke Rasmussen also watched the exciting handball match. 

Denmark won 28-25!


Mary supported the Danish team by wearing the official 'Denmark- t-shirt designed by Vero Moda. Looks like she matched the bright red blouse with creamy-colored trousers and a brown leather belt. The favorite color-combo: red and white.

She accessorized her outfit with beloved Gucci glasses and two golden bracelets from Dulong Fine Jewelry. I get a glimpse of diamond earrings. Never identified. I believe she would have worn three folden necklaces as well, but I have not been able to find a photos proving it.

The semifinal match was played by Felix Auger Aliassime from Canada and Carlos Alcaraz from Spain.

What an outfit! Love her new Rabens Saloner trousers. The kinda style we rarely see Mary wear. Baggy and casual. Usually, she wears black trousers with wide legs when wearing trousers. Dress-pants. I like this cool look. She matched them with a reused soft blue Bagutta button-down blouse and a brand new belt from Zimmermann.

Mary had chosen golden jewellery from Halberstadt, Dulong Fine Jewelry and Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. I am really interested in her rather new golden diamond ring own of her pinky. This has become a huge trend. So far, it is still a mystery to me.

She also embraced her outfit with blue Gucci sunglasses, a Canopy Bay by Deborah Hutton hat and her brown cross-body bag from Chloe. Her chic sandals are Hermés.

Day 5.

The Olympic Games 2024


01 August 2024

Rowing competition

The last couple of days, Queen Mary has attended dressage at Versailles along with two good friends. 

On August 1st, she showed up at the rowing stadion in Paris to watch Sverri Nielsen compete for the Danish team. Sverri Nielsen is from the Faroe Islands but is rowing for the Danish Students Rowing Club.


We haven't got that many photos of Mary attending the rowing competition but yet enough to look closer at what she was wearing. She matched a simple white blouse with a reused POLO Ralph Lauren denim shirt and green trousers. We have seen her wear the denim shirt twice: at the World Cup 2023 and when she participated packing backpacks along at LEGO in Billund last year.

Her cool reed cap is part of Vero Moda's collection for the Danish teams participating the Olympics. Jack & Jones designed the men's collection. Both brands are owned by the Danish company Bestseller.

Ones again, Mary wore golden jewellery from Halberstadt and Dulong Fine Jewelry. I like her wearing multiple necklaces and bracelets. Looks exclusive and elegant.

They were also present at the 4 x 200 mentor Freestyle Relay swimming competition for women.

Love that the three of them matched outfits one more time! All wearing plain white summery blouses. Mary styled her new Massimo Dutti blouse with the before-seen printed Ganni skirt. Really like that she's wearing her clothes and accessories all over again. Like with the Ganni skirt. That is what 'we' would do when traveling.

Both necklaces Halberstadt and Dulong Fine Jewelry, the Dulong Fine Jewelry ring and tortoise-like Gucci glasses have been seen before on her trip to Paris. She changed earrings a couple of times. These golden hoops are also from Dulong Fine Jewelry. Her favorite summer-brand?
