It all starts with the Crown Prince couple arriving to Jysk Musikteater in Silkeborg where the two hosts welcome viewers of the show. What happens next made me smile. Crown Prince Frederik acted as host for a few minutes and it seems like he's having lots of fun. Meanwhile his wife enjoy the scene from first raw. The Crown Prince Couple's Prizes 2017 is everything I hoped for; everything I wished it would be. A wonderful show with great music, lots of speeches, smiles and happy memories for all the winners. The prizes have now been handed over in 13 years. Amazing how time pass by with such speed and power. Both Crown Prince Frederik and his wife Crown Princess Mary really seemed to enjoy the evening from first raw. Several times they entered the stage, as hosts, to present and hand over four prizes. These are the prizes which were presented during the evening:

// The Crown Prince Couple's Culture Prize, which was given to Den Sorte Skole along with DKK 500,000.
// The Crown Prince Couple's Social Prize was handed over to the organization DIGNITY along with DKK 500,000
// The Crown Prince Couple's Stardust Prizes were received by the podcast Third Ear and designer Cecilie Bahnsen. Congratulations to all of them.



For me it has been a true pleasure to watch the show, though I didn't watch it live on Saturday. So, I talked about the show and now time is up for us to talk much more about what Mary was wearing at the event. For 13 years we have got to see Mary wear the most beautiful outfit -do you remember this here & here? Any favourites? This year she was dressed in a brand new blue dress featuring lace details. Usually we are left on our own trying to identify where her clothes are from. Sometime I wish she would be wearing clothes with a visual logo at front. That would make everything more easy for all of us. But this time was very different, because the making of her dress has been filmed and was then broadcasted during the show. Winner of one of the Crown Prince Couple's Stardust Prizes 2017, Cecilie Bahnsen created Mary's dress. According to an interview with the designer; Mary chose the colour herself. When she presented Cecilie Bahnsen as winner, she proudly showed off her very own dress with a great smile. At the arrival we got a glimpse of her white Prada coat and brand new Rupert Sanderson pumps. These were identified by Heaven afterwards. Seems like embellished pumps are incredibly popular right now. She embraced a chic and stylish evening outfit by wearing her J. Furnami clutch, Dulong Fine Jewelry earrings and white pearl ring such as a golden Cartier bracelet.

It is with great pleasure I look forward to watch the Crown Prince couple's Prizes each year. This year is no exception. But more about the award show in my upcoming post. Now it is all about a visit somewhere else in Silkeborg. A Dane caught the couple arriving by train to Silkeborg, here, before they were about to visit Museum Jorn, here. The museum is dedicated to the Danish painter Asger Jorn and his masterpieces. 

Arriving to the museum in Silkeborg, the Crown Prince couple were warmly welcomed with flags, smiles, flowers and lots of greetings. Despite the cold many Danes showed up to get a glimpse of the couple, who took plenty of time meeting as many as possible before entering the museum. The royal couple got the chance to see the regular exhibition and the latest exhibition by the American artist Cindy Sherman. They were given a guided tour around the museum where they were introduced to, among other things, Jorn's very experimental approach to art. Agser Jorn is differently an artist, who has become famous for his own way of making art, here.

Before or after the Crown Prince couple visited the Museum Jorn, they participated a rehearsal for tonight's award show taking place in Jysk Musikteater in Silkeborg, here.



When the couple visited the museum in Silkeborg, Mary dazzled in a black an burgundy outfit perfectly matching the season and weather. She embrace a chic and stylish look by wearing a pair of brand new trousers in burgundy. I have already had several requests and seen many more. Therefor, I am a proud to tell you that I was actually able to identify them as Hugo Boss. She paired the new trousers with a black knitted blouse, which remain unidentified. But if you like the style Aiayu got a similar model also owned by Mary, here. Thought they look very much the same; it's not the case. Aiayu confirmed that to me in an email on a previous occasion. When arriving she wore a good old piece from Prada styled with a brand new brooch. When it comes to other jewellery worn during the visit, I see a pair of earrings which could be from Hartmann's and a few rings. Both pointed ankle boots from Hugo Boss, burgundy leather gloves and nail polish matched the rest of the outfit with such perfection. Makes me wanna try something similar. Frederik also looked very handsome in his navy trousers, beige sweater and brown blazer. They just make a great couple.

The Childen's Day 2017

Monday, November 20th



The Crown Princess was in a splendid mood when she, around noon, arrived to UNICEF in Copenhagen to attend the Children's Day. She was warmly welcomed with smiles, greetings and flowers. Despite the cold, everyone were in a great mood already from when the Crown Princess arrived. As part of her attendance, the Crown Princess gave a speech as key note speaker at the event. I have not read it yet, but I am quite she mentioned things from this years theme -education; national and globally.


Attending the Children's Day in Copenhagen, Mary was beautifully dressed in a bright blue dress and red coat. Both pieces are reused at previous occasions. The dress goes back to 2015 when she attended the Danish Home Guard's painting exhibition, here. It has never been identified. I have always had Prada in mind, but never really been able to confirm that. What thoughts have you had? When it comes to the magnificent red coat, it is completely different. First time she wore it, it was quickly identified as Diane von Furstenberg. Which means that this is the fourth time we see her wear it, herehere & here. She beautifully accessorized her look with several pieces from both Dulong Fine Jewelry, Orit Elhanati, Cartier and that little brooch from Women Deliver. At the arrival she showed us one of her latests new piece -a bright blue Prada bag perfectly matching the rest of her outfit. The two colours looks just great. She embraced a complete and polished look by wearing reused patent pumps from Gianvito Rossi. Anything you would like to change? -I can't mention a thing. I really like her hairstyle as well. Love the fact that it's a bit curly.

Visiting Danish Swimming Federation

Monday, November 13th


As patron of the Danish Swimming Federation, here, the Crown Princess visited the Danish swimming team, who are going to participate the European Championship short-circuit swimming.  The championship is taking from on December 13-17th in Royal Arena in Copenhagen. The visit was all unofficially from what I have been able to find out. Other than a couple of pictures, this is all I know about her visit. Seems like the Crown Princess really enjoyed herself meeting the team, such as the team seemed to find great pleasure in meeting the Crown Princess.


As little as I have been able to read about her visit, as little do I know about her clothes. The few pictures published have not revealed much -at least not to me. From what I Mary was wearing a very comfortable outfit. She wore a new grey blouse featuring a white turtleneck and hemline and black trousers. My guess is that she could be wearing some king of ankle boots or maybe even sneakers. On a couple of pictures it looks like she embraced the style by wearing a pair of diamond earrings. A simple and everyday makeup completed the look perfectly.
