Hackathon symposium

Tuesday, November 7th

Earlier in the morning the Crown Princess attended the 10th anniversary conference for the Free of Bullying program made in collaboration of the Mary Foundation and Save the Children ten years ago, here. In the afternoon she attended the Hackathon symposium as patron of the Maternity Foundation, here. The symposium is organized, among others, the Maternity Foundation, UNFPA and the Danish Foreign Ministry.

The Crown Princess was warmly welcomed with flowers, huge smiles and greetings at the arrival. She attended the symposium as guest of honor. During the weekend representatives from several different organizations etc. have developed new, innovative possible solutions supporting sexual- and reproductive health and rights for women and girls on the run. Especially focusing on how technology can be useful. Later on, the best idea was announced. The Crown Princess showed her support and interest by giving a remarkable opening speech.



At the Hackathon symposium Mary was beautifully dress in a lovely combination of purple and grey. I am absolutely stunned by this combo. Never really thought it would look good, but it really does. What was your first thought? The first thing my eyes caught was her new shoes. Trying to identify them Alaïa and Jimmy Choo crossed my mind. I had no luck at all -Heaven did. She managed to find her new ankle boots at Alaïa. Take a look at the incredible design. They look just great. Other than the shoes, she wore a matching Hugo Boss clutch and what I believe could be a new golden ring from Dulong Fine Jewelry. Did you also noticed the golden Orit Elhanati necklace? So, this time we started with her accessories. Now on to everything else she was wearing. Mary embraced a chic winter style by wearing a reused blouse identified by Royals & Fashion, here, as Prada and matching trousers. The blouse goes has been worn here and here. When do you think she wore it better? My favourite is differently the one from the Hackathon symposium. Then we only have one piece left to talk about -the coat. No, it is not new. In 2007 she wore it the first time when she visited her friend Caroline Flemming in London, here. A few years back I managed to find it at Prada. I absolutely adore her outfit from the symposium.

Copenhagen: 10th anniversary conference

Tuesday, November 7th

Kongehuset ● Royals & Fashion ● Billed-Bladet ● Frederik et Mary ● Daily Mail

For ten years the Mary Foundation and Save the Children's program Free of Bullying has helped children combat bullying, get more confident and learned the importance of a good community. This is also the basis idea of the program; that community among children can prevent bullying. Even outside Denmark, the program has become quite popular. Now it is time to celebrate the 10th anniversary, which is done with a conference. And of course did the Crown Princess attend -both a committed to the program and as founder and chairwoman of the foundation. She arrived to Docken in Copenhagen with a huge smile on her face. She was in a really good mood during the conference. CEO of the Mary Foundation Helle Østergaard and General Secretary of Save the Children Jonas Keiding Lindholm also attended the celebration. The two of them and the rest of the participants carefully listened when the Crown Princess gave her speech.

This is just one of two conferences. The first one takes place on November 7th in Copenhagen. The other one is in Aarhus on November 9th. The Crown Princess will be present at both.



Attending the conference in Copenhagen on Tuesday, Mary was beautifully dressed in a chic work-wear outfit. She embrace the style by wearing blue in many different shades. The blazer has been worn by her at an occasion back in 2015, here. Do you remember it? Love it the first time. Love it as much now. Looks great combined with that light blue Prada blouse, which goes way back in time. She matched all of it with blue accessories as well. At the arrival I also spotted a blue Prada bag. So,  Other than a bag Mary embraced a chic business-style by wearing earrings matched with a ring from Pomellato, such as her golden Orit Elhanati necklace and blue suede pumps from Gianvito Rossi. Another detail I have come to love pricelessly, is her hairstyle. Wauw. And her makeup as well. Flawless, polished and very suitable for the outfit and occasion. Anything you would like to change? -I got nothing.

Hubertus hunt in Dyrehaven

Sunday, November 5th

It has been a tradition for quite some years for the Danish royal family members, at least some of them, to attend the Hubertus hunt in Dyrehaven near the Eremitage palace, here. This year Crown Princess Mary enjoyed a day in Dyrehaven accompanied by all four children -Prince Christian, Princess Isabella, Prince Vincent and Princess Josephine. The Hubertus hunt goes back to 1900 and has taken place since then on the first Sunday in November. Yes, very little changes in Denmark. To me it looks like the four royal children really enjoyed a day along with their mother and vice versa. From the balcony of the Eremitage palace the family closely followed the hunt; the Crown Princess with a cop of coffee in her hands. Following, the five royal members enjoyed a ride in Dyrehaven in an open coach. Several picture show that the family spend much time chatting with people also attending the hunt and the two princesses couldn't stay away from the horses.

We have already seen many lovely outfits the last few years when Mary and the children have attended the Hubertus hunt in Dyrehaven. I found some, here & here. This year Mary was dressed in a cosy, warm outfit probably because of the rather cold weather. She dazzled in a new knitted turtleneck, a new down vest, a reused green coat and slim jeans. Maybe not the most exciting combo but wait till you see it. Looks just great. Nor the turtleneck or down vest have I been able to find. I got a strong idea that the knitted piece could be from Ralph Lauren and that the vest could be Burberry. About her coat I am way more confident. A good friend of mine, Kate, managed to identify the coat even though it is 2012, here. And it is from Burberry. Unfortunately, I'm not able to share a link with you other than to another blogger, who shared a picture, here. She also showed up wearing a pair of brand new suede boots in green. Not sure I like them very much nor have I found them yet. Any ideas? I would really like to hear your opinion on this one. Tried everything and I still haven't got a clue where they are from. Mary accessorized her look with not just one, but two bags. One new. One old. The old one goes a few years back and is from DAY Birger et Mikkelsen. The other one is a brand new leather tote bag from Prada. Haven't found the right colour but I'm pretty sure I got the right model. Other than that she embraced a chic winter style by wearing diamond earrings and a matching ring from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen.

Christmas stamp 2017 & TUBA's 20th anniversary

Friday, November 3rd



-Christmas Stamp 2017-
The Crown Princess was in a splendid mood when she arrived to the City Hall in Copenhagen. Here she was about to reveal the annual Christmas Stamp 2017. It was at patron of the Christmas Seal Foundation she attended the presentation. For several years the Crown Princess has participated in the revealing. Two years ago, in 2015, she attended along with her mother-in-law Queen Margrethe, who presented her own design, here. This year the stamps, here, are created by the Danish illustrator and author Michael Wettendorff, who also attended the presentation. After the grand presentation, a few speeches and many smiles the Crown Princess attended a reception. She took plenty of time talking to the kids, who have participated the Christmas Seal Homes' program including how to handle and prevent bullying and weight loss. The Crown Princess listened with great interest and the kids gladly told her about their stay at the homes.

-20th anniversary-
After having attended the annual presentation of the Christmas Stamp 2017, the Crown Princess attended a reception on occasions of TUBA's 20th anniversary. The reception took place in Skuespilhuset in Copenhagen. She was warmly welcomed at the arrival by Henrik Appel, who is head of TUBA. On a daily basis TUBA offer free help, therapy and counseling to young people between 14 and 35, who grew up in a home with alcohol abuse from one or both parents, here. In 2014 TUBA received the Crown Prince Couple's Social Prize, here, for their inspiring and incredible work to help young people in Denmark. It is not the first the Crown Princess has met with people from TUBA. In 2015 she attended a group therapy session with users of the fund. As in 2015, the Crown Princess had plenty of time listening to the young people's stories.

At both events, the presentation of this years Christmas Stamp and at the 20th anniversary reception, Mary was beautifully dressed in a purple blouse and matching skirt. Both pieces have been worn before a couple of times in the very same combo. Think the first time was in 2016 when she visited Moldova, here. Do you recall having seen the outfit before? Well, I can't get enough of the colours. A very suitable colour next to her skin and lovely brown hair. Nor the blouse or skirt have yet been identified and I still do not know where to find them. So, if you got an idea I'd love to hear from you. All ideas are welcome. What I do know is that she was wearing diamond earrings from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen seen at multiple occasions, such as her grey calfskin clutch from Quidam. She matched it all with snakeskin pumps from Gianvito Rossi. Despite all these reused pieces, she was also wearing one brand new. Did you notice it? A few pictures show her from behind. You know what I'm referring to? Yes, you're right -her new hair clip. These specific hair clips have become very popular among Danish women in all ages. A friend of mine got one and I fell in love with it right away. Now I love it even more. It's not very expensive, so maybe a Christmas present to yourself? Let me know if you buy one. Think I probably need one myself.

Earrings: Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen Winter Frost Earrings
Hairclip: Pico Leaf Clip
Clutch: Quidam Grey Calfskin Clutch
Shoes: Gianvito Rossi Python Snakeskin Pumps
