Right now Kofi Annan is in Denmark to present his new book A Life in War and Peace. He's a former secretary general of the UN. Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary attended the presentation of the new book, they'll also attend the evening dinner at restaurant Lumskebugten in Copenhagen.

Short review of A Life in War and Peace, by Kofi Annan  

"Written with eloquence and unprecedented candor, Interventions is the story of Kofi Annan’s remarkable time at the center of the world stage. After forty years of service at the United Nations, Annan—who received the Nobel Peace Prize in 2001—shares his unique experiences during the terrorist attacks of September 11; the American invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan; the war between Israel, Hizbollah, and Lebanon; the brutal conflicts of Somalia, Rwanda, and Bosnia; and the geopolitical transformations following the end of the Cold War. A personal biography of global statecraft, Interventions is as much a memoir as a guide to world order—past, present, and future."

Wearing a long cozy grey wool coat Mary arrived with Frederik to meet Kofi Annan and attend the presentation of his new book on a cold any windy March day. Her outfit was all in different shades of grey and black. Without it being boring Mary stole the picture, for me, with her grey dress trousers and black blouse! When she took of the wonderful new coat a Celine belt was visible and a black blouse which might be a BOSS model. Not to forget, the stunning cap-toe Prada pumps, which she also have in beige. The pumps has the classic Mary-shoe-style with the pointed toe and super high heel. I adore high heels and love to wear them as often it's possible but to wear them as much as she do, is hard to believe. I know that your feet get used to, still I admire her. Who do you feel about wearing high heels that often? For sure, they give everything good to your outfit. She also wore a huge printed grey scarf at the arrival, a Naledi Copenhagen silk scarf.

I think I would be a bit afraid to met at person like Kofi Annan, he's a great figure but Mary was smily and clam as usual. My thanks this time goes to Agnes for supplying me with the great picture!

The last day of their visit to Chile was a bit more unofficial and you had to wait so long to see the last day because no pictures have been published. Luckily Billed Bladet took some! She was dressed in a pink printed shirt from Heartmade by Julie Fagerholt (Spring/Summer 2013) wearing a pair of dusty blue long trouser and ballet flats at the opening of the new solar heating area next to Gaby mine made by the Danish company Sunmark. A funny thing is that Mary's blouse matched Frederik's trousers and the other way around. So it is possible for a couple to dress alike without wearing the exact same colour. As on the 5th day she carried a bright blue Prada handbag. The three-chain necklace is from Jane Kønig.

Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary at the inauguration in Atacama Desert

Nothing's better then get the chance to see the woman called Crown Princess Mary dressed in pastel colours on a trip to Chile! They were attending several different event yesterday which means different outfits every time they changed location. Yeah. The first one is differently my favourite; a silky creamy white blouse and a pair of pink/white printed capri trousers with a pattern I would call -cute. With the beige L.K. Bennett wedges her look is so feminine with a classic touch of the black pearl Marianne Dulong earrings and bracelet. They are usable for both everyday and evening because of the timeless design and materials, 18-carat gold and Tahitian pearl. Se added a little more bling with a three-chain necklace with round pendants. They are pretty popular as 'friend tags' you can write your own, a friends, child's etc. initial on the small pendant. Because of the popularity of these necklaces is available at almost every jewellery brand, Mary chose hers from the Danish designer Jane Kønig. Do you just need one of these as much as I do?

I fell to mention that she almost copied her outfit from one she wore in 2012 when her, Christian and Isabella enjoyed some hours at the circus Cirkus Dannebrog.

At the European Southern Observatory

After having seen all the sweet pictures and the interview with the couple from the observatory I think it was a very special experience for both of them. They were literally acting like they were no one else around them. Mary brought her camera and took lots of pictures of the overwhelming view and photos to remember good memories with her husband from a official visit wasn't planned. Just like Mary took pictures of Frederik, he took some great one of her. If they were as great as the one the press published they are perfect for a scrapbook. Now you might think; haven't we seen that colourful blouse before. Well almost, because she have a jumpsuit with the exact same print. From the start I was a fan of the jumpsuit, I have a thing with jumpsuit even though I can't wear them because of my hight, but as a blouse the print also works very good. Differently a blouse I think we'll see it again. You might remember the designer, Style Butler. She added a brown belt to mark her waist and wore white trousers.

The more I look at the pictures from yesterday the more I like it! As any other woman with just a tiny interest in fashion have a things about shoes and the white once Mary was wearing I simply gorgeous - the shape is great. Yet, I haven't been able to find the right model but my guess is that they are from Prada, Manolo Blahnik, Gianvito Rossi or maybe Rupert Sanderson. Maybe you're able to help my in the search of the right once?

Whatevey she puts on Mary suit into every single piece of clothes just like the new white dress from Elise Gug (Spring/Summer 2013). Notice the sheer long sleeves, it's a great detail and even though the dress has long sleeves you barely notice it because of the sheer-effect. In a way it makes the dress more 'light'. A dress that not to laud. A piece of colour would I have appreciated instead she chose gold earrings features white pearl pendant, Marianne Dulong.

Dinner at Club de la Unión

With the most smily and happy face Mary arrived by the side of Frederik holding his hand.

As I said yesterday, Mary is a pro when it comes to dressing up for a dinner! I would love to have the skills as she has. She chose a dress that draw everyones eye to her without actually 'screaming' for the attention you naturally give her and even when it is the second time she's wearing the blue and white one-shoulder dress created by Danish designer Jesper Høvring (Spring/Summer 2013). The pattern is available in not just this one model but I would with no doubt choose the same as Mary, and not just because she already have it!

She accessorized the dazzling evening outfit with silver Ralph Lauren Collection (Purple Label) heeled sandals, a pair I would die to wear with any piece of clothes, dresses and jeans. She carried a metallic silver box clutch which could be from either Anya Hindmarch or Judith Leiber. Lotus (custom-made) earrings and Catena bracelet from Marianne Dulong finished the look and made her even more marvelous! But she wound't shin so much without her amazing personality.
