Day 2. Official state visit in France

01 April 2025

King Frederik and Queen Mary joined the Presidential couple for a visit at the Manufactures des Gobelins followed by the official opening of "Economic Forum".

Later on, King Frederik and President Macron accompanied each other while the First Lady and Queen Mary visited Ecole Maternelle Dussoubs. The school has become part of the Mary Foundation's "Free of Bullying"-program.

The couple then attended the Partnership Event at Palais Brongniart followed by a visit at Grand Palais.

Mary looked beautiful in a reused Scanlan Theodore suit matched with a stunning high-neck blouse. She wore the blouse on November 11th 2024 when attending the Child Welfare Day. It is still unidentified. Any ideas? I really like the dusty green color of the suit and the soft powder pink blouse. Makes a great match.

She embraced the style with a diamond butterfly brooch - the Mary Foundation's logo. The fine rosette is the Legion d'honneur. The French Order of Honor goes back to 1802 and the is the most prestigious French other.

We get a glimpse of her accessorizing the outfit with a Max Mara handbag and stylish python pointed pumps from Gianvito Rossi.

Reciprocal arrangement

Tradition goes that the hosting couple host the first (and finest) galla event and the visiting couple host a reciprocal arrangement on the last day of the state visit. This is why the King and Queen hosted a reciprocal dinner at Le Grand Hôtel.

The French Presidential Couple were invited as guests of honor. The Danish business delegation and members of the French and Danish guests were also invited to attend the dinner representing diplomacy, culture, politics and business.

Mary looked like a moviestar at the reciprocal event at Le Grand Hôtel! The stunning dress/coat is a reuse from Taller Marmo. Do you remember when she first wore it? If your answer is May 21st 2022 you're right. Mary wore the dress at a gala event in Tivoli on occasion of Queen Margrethe's 50th anniversary.

At the dinner Mary styled the magnificent dress with large golden earrings from Alma e Coração. They are traditional Portuguese design. A closer look reveal that she was also wearing Queen Louise's engagement bracelet and a golden ring featuring an orange stone.

The chic black lace pumps are from Gianvito Rossi.

NO outfit will ever surpass this outfit! Nothing. I have many favorite outfits but her outfit at the arrival in Paris earlier today will surpass all of them. Probably also in the future. Mary's new Christian Dior set is marvelous! The style of it is so 1950's. I adore it.

It dosen't end with that because Mary perfectly matched the style with a reused black Jane Taylor hat and smashing sky-high Gianvito Rossi pumps. Not quite sure I would have chosen those heels but it looks great. The Mulberry handbag was such a clever move.

I am sure you noticed her choice in jewellery as well. The stunning white pearl earrings and the matching brooch are both pieces part of the Danish Pearl Poiré Parure. The elegant ring is a custom-made creation from Dulong Fine Jewelry.

We are treated like King's and Queen's at this state visit. Mary's shows all the best of her style. 1950's inspired Dior suits and now this! Her beautiful new blouse has been found at CLEA - a brand new designer in her wardrobe. Mary styled it with a smashing floral silk skirt from Lasse Spangenberg Copenhagen. Imagine your design worn at an event like this?! Must be such an honor.

She embraced the outfit with huge golden diamond earrings from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen designed by Charlotte Lynggaard - daughter of Lynggaard's founder, Ole Lynggaard. The blue Aquamarine ring goes way back in time but has never been identified. Maybe from an auction?

Her amazing pearl embroidered clutch is from Anya Hindmarch and the fine beige satin pumps are from Gianvito Rossi.

Weekly meeting with the Mary Foundation

28 March 2025

Queen Mary attended a weekly meeting with the Mary Foundation. On the agenda with the foundation's "Free of Bullying" project. The main reason for the discussion about this specific project is because the Queen will visit the school Ecole maternelle Dussoubs in Paris within the next week.

The visit takes place in relation to the couple's forthcoming state visit in France.

18 Parisian school's have been testing the project under the name "Vivre Ensemble" since 2022. Now the program will be part of school's all over France.

Mary looked sweet and all natural at the weekly meeting on March 28th. She was dressed in a simple black blouse (possibly new) and her Tom Ford glasses. Guess she could have been wearing black trousres as well or maybe grey. What is not to like.

Never thought this Prada dress would look this good with black tights but I am truly impressed how well it matches. Actually I like it even more with black tights than without. What was your first thought? The dress is a reuse that goes back to 2015 when she attended 3rd World Conference on Women's Shelters in the Netherlands.

At the conference with Realdania Mary had chosen to accessorize the elegant dress with the most stunning white pearl earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry and a matching bracelet and ring (same designer). She also wore a reused golden bangle from Rebekka Notkin and a third one. A NEW ONE. It is also from Rebekka Notkin. So delicate.

Mary's chic glasses are old ones from Tom Ford. Looked great that she had chosen her beloved black leather clutch from Quidam and new midi heels from Gianvito Rossi. Made the outfit look polished and beautiful

I love a good suit but I'm not that crazy about these oversize jackets. Too much 1980s. What I like about this set is the checkered pattern and its soft brown color. Like that she had chosen to wear it with a brown turtleneck. Makes a great match. She first wore the trousers when visiting Greenland in July 2024 and a couple of days later she wore it with the matching blazer.

Mary styled the suit with simple golden Dulong Fine Jewelry earrings and a custom-made Dulong Fine Jewelry ring. The Celine belt was a clever choice such as the brown suede ankle boots from Prada.

Not her best outfit but I am in love with the colors.

Family visit at the Guards Regiment

08 March 2025

The last month or so Crown Prince Christian has been training at the Guards Regiment in Slagelse. On March 8th his family paid a visit at the barracks in Slagelse on occasion of family day.

The Crown Prince proudly showed his parents and siblings around the regiment and introduced them to his fellow mates in training.

I always loved Mary's more casual outfits. This is differently one of them. Mary matched a pair of simple black trousers with a chic reused denim shirt from POLO Ralph Lauren. She had then chosen a beloved Massimo Dutti coat which both daughter's have also worn. I really like her new Celine belt. The soft brown leather looks great with the golden bukle.

Mary accessorized the outfit with reused Gucci sunglasses, diamond earrings from Sophie Bille Brahe and what looks like a diamond ring. What is not to like?

Day 2. Official state visit to Finland

05 March 2025

King Frederik and Queen Mary are on an official state visit to Finland these days by invitation of Finland's President Alexander Stubb.

They first accompanied each other for a visit at EMMA - Espoo Museum of Modern Art were they were given a guided tour around the museum. Then followed a visit at the Arkki School of Architecture for Children and Youth.

The couple also paid a visit the Aalto University and the Porkkala Garrison in Upinniemi. In between these two visits the royal couple attended a seminar about green financing followed by a business lunch.

Wish she would have worn another color coat. Don't think this bright color stands well with a soft grey. What are your thoughts? Princess Isabella has been seen wearing the Dolce & Gabbana coat at a premiere in Tivoli in 2024. Likely she borrowed it from her mother. I think Isabella wore it better.

Mary had chosen a reused embellished Prada jumper and wide-legged JOSEPH trousers. I kinda like the monochrome vibe. Looks great with her fair skin and brown hair. During the day she added a new navy blue down coat from Uniqlo.

A closer look revealed that she wore earrings that comes with a very special background. They belonged to Queen Margrethe and was a gift for Mary around 2012. Her ring matched perfect in color.

She topped off the look with a black leather handbag from Mulberry and midi heeled boots in grey suede. Mary has worn them before but I am still not sure if they correct designer has been found.

Reciprocal arrangement

In the evening King Frederik and Queen Mary hosted a reciprocal arrangement in Finlandia Hall with the Finnish President and his spouse Mrs. Innes-Stubb as guests of honor. Denmark's ambassador to Findland, Jakob Nymann-Lindegren also attended the arrangement along with other ministers.

King Frederik gave a finial speech with a thanks to the Presidential couple for their kind invitation.

This is not the first chalky white suits Mary has in her closet but this one has never been seen before - except from the trousers. The suit is from Finnish Andiata. Mary first wore the trousers in Paris on occasion of the official opening of the Olympic Games in 2024. At the reciprocal arrangement she wore the trousers with its matching blazer and vest.

Mary embraced the style with stunning golden earrings and a necklace from Dulong Fine Jewelry. She has the same earrings studded with diamonds but I am pretty sure it is the first time she wears a pair without any diamonds. The yellow diamond ring has been seen on a number of previous occasions.

The white pearl clutch from Anya Hindmarch and those golden leather pumps from Malone Souliers are a wonderful addition to a great outfit.

Day 1. Official state visit to Finland

04 March 2025

By invitation King Frederik and Queen Mary are visiting Finland as an official state visit. The invitation was from Finland's President Alexander Stubb and his spouse Suzanne Innes-Stubb.

The royal couple were officially welcomed with a ceremony followed by a reception at the Presidential palace in Helsinki.

During the day King Frederik participated in a delegation discussion in the Dining Hall and attended a sining ceremony in Hall of Mirrors accompanied by the Finnish President. Meanwhile Mrs. Suzanne Innes-Stubb joined Queen Mary for a visit at the Helsinki New Children's Hospital.

Together they enjoyed lunch, visited the Parliament of Finland, met with the Prime Minister, visited the Merikaha civil defence shelter and honored Danish volunteers who fell during the Winter War in 1939-1940 at the Hietaniemi Cemetery.

Mary wore such a lovely outfit today! Adorable combination of colors. The light grey midi-length skirt and that reused Prada blouse. Such as stunning color-combo. Love how Mary is always able to style grey clothes and accessories. I have not been able to identify the skirt. The elegant Max Mara coat is brand new. Do you like it? Think the silhouette is really pretty.

Mary accessorized the outfit with a fine reused Jane Taylor headpiece and a matching suede clutch. Think it could be new. Reminds me of some other ones in her collection but I am not sure we have seen this before.

She looked so beautiful wearing a rather large golden brooch featuring Amethyst stones and diamond rings from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. I would love to get a closer look at her earrings. The knee-high heeled boots are old ones from Gianvito Rossi. The same designer as her new black boots worn later today at the Hietaniemi Cemetery.

State banquet

President Alexander Stubb and Mrs. Suzanne Innes-Stubb hosted a spectacular state banquet in the evening in honor of the King and Queen visiting Finland.

The banquet took place at Presidential Palace in the State Hall. Both King Frederik and President Alexander Stubb gave speeches during the dinner.

Seems like they all had a wonderful times. They were all smiles and sincere happy faces. What an evening!

On occasion of the state visit King Frederik handed over the Order of the Elephant to President Alexander Stubb. Mrs. Suzanne Innes-Stubb was given the Grand Cross of the Order of Dannebrog. King Frederik was honored with the chain of the Order of the White Rose of Finland. He was awarded the Grand Cross in 1994.

I could speak for hours about Mary's evening outfit. She looked absolutely smashing in her Jesper Høvring gown. Mary first wore the gown at the New Year's Banquet in 2019. Loved it then; love it even more now because of the newly added golden belt. Stunning detail! 

Her gown really deserve as much attention as the rest of the outfit but I know her choice of jewellery won everybody's attention. I get it. Since Mary became Queen of Denmark last year she has been digging in the royal jewellery box. She has already worn pieces the world haven't seen for many years. Decades.

At the state banquet Mary had chosen to wear a golden tiara that once belonged to Queen Caroline Amalie. It was crafted around 1820. It has not been worn in over 140 years. 

She embraced the style with matching earrings and a brooch from Countess Danner. They are part of a parure which comes with a necklace and a couple of bracelets. Julius Diderichen is the master behind Countess Danner's parure.

The huge bracelet is from Princess Vilhelmine Marie. His spouse King Frederik VII gifted her the bracelet around 1828. The bracelet is usually stores at Rosenborg in Copenhagen. Queen Caroline Amalie's tiara will also be seen at Rosenborg after the couple return home from Finland.

Gala dinner for arts and culture at Christiansborg

28 February 2025

Friday evening King Frederik and Queen Mary hosted their very first gala dinner for arts and culture at Christiansborg. People representing different arts and members of the cultural life in Denmark were invited to the dinner such as representatives from the Ministry of Culture and the court. Queen Margrethe also attended the gala dinner.

The gala dinner for arts and culture was first held by Queen Margrethe and Prince Henrik in 1976 and has been a tradition ever since.

Dinner was served, music was played and lancer was danced. Lancer is a favorit of Queen Margrethe.

Well, well, well. Rais your hand if you ever though Mary would wear this Jenny Peckham gown for an event like this? It never crossed my mind but I love it! Mary first wore the incredible sparkly gown at an interview with Financial Times in 2022 with photos taken by photographer Hasse Nielsen. Really beautiful choice.

Mary accessorized the stunning gown with a tiara purchased at a Bruun Rasmussen auction around 2015 when she first wore it at a gala concert on occasion of Queen Margrethe's 75th birthday. She wore earrings similar in style and a HUGE diamond ring. I am pretty it's inherited from Queen Margrethe or part of the Danish royal collection. What do you think? Is Queen Margrethe in fact wearing the ring on her first official portrait as Queen of Denmark in 1972?

The elegant dusty pink satin pumps are reused from Gianvito Rossi. A fine match to the gown and the pumps. It is from Prada.

Presentation of EliteForsk Awards 2025

The fiver winners are all researcher's at Danish universities researching anything and everything from military decision-making processes over snake venom and fertility to quantum physics and gas technology. The winners are:

Each of them are given 1 million Danish Kroner to their research and 200,000 Danish Kroner as a personal reward.

The Queen also handed over EliteForsk travel scholarships to 17 ph.d. students.

Here we go again! Mary wore a stunning two-color outfit at the presentation of EliteForsk Awards ceremony. The same The Fold London v-neck blouse and burgundy Alexander McQueen skirt as in 2024 when attending the opening of an exhibition about the Mary Elizabeth Hospital. Back then you weren't that excited. This time I love it even more. She looks flawless. At the arrival Mary wore an old JOSEPH coat.

I adore how she embraced the style with only a few accessorizes. The reused burgundy suede Aqauzzura boots look great with the wavy skirt. Never thought I would say that but I do like it. Love the match of different materials.

Her fine rose quartz earrings are crafted by Dulong Fine Jewelry such as the golden customized ring. we get a tiny glimpse of a leather clutch. It is a Diane von Furstenberg.

Church service for Ukraine

24 February 2025

King Frederik and Queen Mary attended a church service on the occasion of the anniversary of the invasion of Ukraine.

The church service took place at Holmen's church in Copenhagen. The royal couple attended the service along with among others Folketinget's Chairman Søren Gade and the Ambassador for Ukraine Andrii Yanevskyi. Members of the Danish Government also showed their support by attending the service.

I know. I know. Minor detail but I have to comment on her wearing sheer tights. Mary used to wear such tights back in the days but at some point it stopped. Now she brought back a favorit detail of mine. Am I the only one who noticed it?

At the church service Mary looked beautiful in a brand new long grey coat - blazer-like in style. So far I have not been able to identify it. I'd really like to hear your thoughts and id you have any ideas for a possible designer. Could it be bespoke? She styled it with a simple black turtleneck blouse or dress. It goes that she has never worn something similar but I remember a lest two times: when Duchess Catherine visited Copenhagen in 2022 and in 2012 when celebrating Queen Margrethe's 40th jubilee.

Mary accessorized the outfit with a new black headband from Jane Taylor - similar to this one, and elegant black south sea pearl earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry. The fine diamond brooch is a gift from her late father-in-law. It belonged to Prince Henrik's mother.

The black Quidam clutch and reused suede Jimmy Choo pumps makes the outfit even more stunning.

Happy 53rd birthday!

05 February 2025

Congratulations to Queen Mary on behalf of her 53rd birthday! Her birthday was celebrated with a new photo taken by photographer Steen Evald at Amalienborg.

What a beautiful match. Laces and a minimalistic blouse. The stunning soft pink lace skirt is a brand new Valentino Garavani design. I predict it will be a new favorite of hers. Goes perfect for day and night events. Her fine blouse is a reuse from Mark Kenly Domino Tan. She first wore it in an exclusive interview in EUROWOMAN on occasion of her 50th birthday in 2022.

Mary embraced the gorgeous outfit with elegant earrings, golden bangles and a stack of rings. The earrings are adjustable in two different lengths. A couple of rings are from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. Could she be wearing soft pink pumps as well? - what do you think?

Honestly I have never really been a big fan of that The Fold London blouse. Mainly the color was nagging me. It is so pale and boring but today I changed my mind. I absolutely love the combination with the grey structured Celine trousers. The two colors are brilliant in pair! It took way too long for those two to find each other. The fine grey patent leather belt is a great detail.

I also really like how she accessorized the outfit with a reused diamond necklace from Tiffany & Co and shiny diamond rings. Makes the look a bit more glamorous. Think I spotted a pair of grey suede ankle boots. Quite sure she has worn them before but I have no ID.
