Day 1. Summer tour with Dannebrog

Frederikshavn

August 25, 2025

Arrival in Sæby

King Frederik and Queen Mary are once again on a summer tour around Denmark traveling with Dannebrog. Last year the couple visited Bornholm, Ærø, Assens and Vejle. This year they will be visiting Frederikhavn, Thisted, Læsø and Samsø. The tour will last from August 25th to 28th.

On Tuesday the King and Queen arrived in Sæby and was warmly welcomed by Mayor of Frederikshavn Karsten Thomsen. They were officially welcomed with a service in Sæby church. Then followed a visit at Sæby Glassblowing and a walk in the city of Sæby.

Around noon they enjoyed lunch at Skovhuset in Bangsboskoven. Skovhuset worked as home of the the forester's for about 250 years. Today it is a gathering place for teaching, meeting rooms and nature events.

I love the idea of a ruffle blouse, a plain midi skirt and a short jacket. Somehow I am not quite sure I think it worked out as intended. Personally I would have chosen another jacket with the skirt or another skirt for the jacket. What do you think?

Nevertheless, I am thrilled to see her wear the blue Prada jacket again. We haven't seen it since 2013 when Mary attended the CHIO Equestrian  Festival in Düsseldorf. Imagine if she had worn it is a matching set when arriving in Sæby! She embraced it with a reused Athé Vanessa Bruno blouse and a unidentified dark blue midi skirt.

Mary styled the outfit with a beautiful hairband purchased from Miss Haidee Millinery and a lovely raffia clutch. The brown Gianvito Rossi heeled sandals were a great choice to enhance the beauty of the other brown accessories. When having lunch at Skovhuset Mary switched to a pair of Prada flats. The sunglasses are from Ray Ban.

She wore white pearl earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry, a necklace by Louise Grønlykke and bracelets from both Dulong Fine Jewelry and Rebekka Notkin. I am still very interested in learning about her three-part diamond ring. The watch is Cartier.

Visiting Råbjerg Mile

In the afternoon the couple changed clothes and went for a visit at Råbjerg Mile - a very unique sandy area located between Frederikshavn and Skagen. The sand is moving around 15 meters a year. The royal couple were given a guided round by the Junior Ragere which is an initiative by Frederikshavn municipality to educate young people in the age of 11-13 as junior nature guides.

They also paid a visit at Ancher's House and visited Grenen. Grenen is Denmark's northernmost point. It is where the two ocean's Kattegat and Skagerrak meet.

What is better than a good old casual outfit? I truly love Mary's casual looks. Like the one she wore when visiting Råbjerg Mile. She paired a pair of soft linen short with a simple white button-down blouse and dark knitted jumper. Non of the items have yet been identified.

Her accessories are Ray Ban sunglasses, a golden Cartier watch and chic NIKE sneakers. Mary chose the same jewellery as earlier that day: stunning white pearl earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry, a diamond necklace from Louise Grønlykke and bracelets from Dulong Fine Jewelry and Rebekka Notkin.

Reception at Dannebrog

After a long day the King and Queen hosted a reception at Dannebrog for invited guests from among others Frederikshavn municipality. Dannebrog was docked at Gl. Pier Skagen Harbour. It was a magical evening with fireworks and warm greetings from everyone in Frederikshavn municipality.

I am not sure I have words enough to describe how much I adore Mary's new Vilshenko dress! It is the most magnificent piece of clothes I have seen in a very long time. The colors are exquisite and the print is dazzling. Love how she matched the red floral print with brand new red earrings. Any ideas where they are from? She first wore them in 2012 at a private birthday celebration at Klampenborg and then again when visiting Chile in 2013.

Her other jewellery are bracelets from Dulong Fine Jewelry and Rebekka Notkin. Simple is everything because of the printed dress. Perfect as she is Mary matched the dress with red suede pumps from Gianvito Rossi.

Day 2. Officiel visit from Norway

16 June 2023

AARHUS

Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary accompanied King Harald and Queen Sonja in Aarhus on Friday (here). The couple have traveled all the way from Oslo to attend an official visit in Denmark.

The Crown Prince Couple attended the opening of business conference and a dinner the previous day (here) and thereby accompanied Queen Margrethe, King Harald and Queen Sonja.

The royal couple arrived in Aarhus by Dannebrog - the royal yacht (here). In Aarhus, they joined the King and Queen of Norway for a business conference at DOKK1, a meeting with Norwegian students and Denmark and had official lunch at Aarhus City Hall.

Before leaving Aarhus, they attended "LiteratureXchange" - a literature festival.

What is not to like? Mary looked like the most incredible bouquet of flowers in that brand new Erdem dress. I am truly impressed. Her new dress is so beautiful. The details are exquisite. The pleatings, the neckline, the belt and soft sheer sleeves.

She embraced the style of her new dress with a reused hairband purchased from Miss Haidee Millinery. Mary first wore this stunning hairpiece at the celebration of the 75th anniversary of the ordination of women to the priesthood in April 2023 (here). She matched it with smashing Gianvito Rossi pumps made of python. Even the clutch matched. This is still unidentified.

The fine diamond earrings and one of her rings are also still unidentified, which is quite impressive because both earrings and ring have been in her wardrobe for many years. Still no clue. The other diamond bands are from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen.

RECEPTION 

The previous day, Queen Margrethe hosted a dinner at Amalienborg. The following day, King Harald and Queen Sonja hosted a reception on board the royal ship Norway (here).

Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary attended the reception.

At the arrival, they were warmly welcomed by the Regal Couple. Wonderful to see the four of them together.

Mary was beautifully dressed in a reused floral dreamy blouse from Giambattista Valli matched with new white trousers. She first wore this blouse when celebrating Crown Prince Frederik's 50th birthday (here). I hope to identify her new trousers, because they are incredibly beautiful.

She styled the outfit with a lovely hairdo showing magnificent golden earrings from Rebekka Notkin. These earrings are also worn before. Like, when the couple presented "The Crown Prince Couple's Prizes 2019" (here). Her golden bangle is also a reused creation from Rebekka Notkin.

We get a glimpse of a beloved 'F'-necklace as well. It is from Halberstadt.

The yellow Yves Saint Laurent clutch goes back to 2009 (here). It was truly love a first sight. I really adore this clutch. Mainly because of the color.

She had chosen reused golden Malone Souliers pumps. I was never really a huge fan of these pumps, but Mary wears them with such elegance.

75th anniversary of the ordination of women to the priesthood

30 April 2023

I imagine it was a big day for many, when Crown Princess Mary attended the celebration of the 75th anniversary of the ordination of women to the priesthood.

The anniversary was celebrated with a church service in Vor Frue Church in Copenhagen. The Crown Prince Couple were married in Vor Frue back in 2004.

In 1948, Johanne Andersen, Ruth Vermehren and Edith Brennende was the first women to the priesthood in Denmark. Since then, many more have followed their example. Today, more than half of the parish priests today are women.

Spring has officially arrived with that gorgeous outfit! Mary wore a wonderful KITX by Kit Willow coat. It is almost a dreamy design. I always loved the details and the soft white colour. Looks like she matched it with a lace dress. Probably the same as in 2016 (here).

With only the clothes Mary won my heart, but with the chosen accessories, I am even more thrilled. Love it when she wears her hair up and that new hairband purchased from Miss Haidee Millinery makes it even more beautiful. It is a winner, right?

Her outstanding jewellery are from Sophie Bille Brahe, Halberstadt, Julie Sandlau and Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. Also favourites on her trip to Vanuatu, Fiji and Australia.

The old raffia clutch was a perfect match to the new hairband. It is still unidentified. Her nude python pointed pumps are old ones from Gianvito Rossi. What a look!
