'The 68th session of the WHO Regional Committee for Europe'

Monday, September 17th

Only a couple of days ago she visited Finland on a two days business promotion trip. Within a week she is going to New York on occasion of the United Nations General Assembly. At the moment Crown Princess Mary is in Italy to attend the 68th session of The Who Regional Committee for Europe.

She is present at the session as patron of WHO Regional Office for Europe and as guest of honor. The Crown Princess has been patron since 2005. So for more than 10 years she has been committed to make a difference for people around the world.

Arriving she was warmly welcomed by Regional Director of WHO, Dr Zsuzsanna Jakab. They two of them have met occasionally and seems to get along very well. Both of them have the same commitment: to make a difference for girls and women.

Attending the 68th session in Rome Crown Princess Mary gave a long speech on men's health. So maybe it is now time for her to expand her area of focus. For years the Crown Princess has been working her *** off to improve girls and women's well-being, living-conditions, health and rights. I am overwhelmed of everything she has achieved. Maybe it is now time to achieve even more, make a difference and help voices who need it.

Attending the 68th session of the WHO Regional Committee for Europe in Italy Mary was magnificently dressed. What always impress me about her sense of style is how she manages to match prints, colours and different materials. This outfit is a perfect example. A wonderful match of blue, red, gold and black.

She was wearing her reused red dress from Dolce & Gabbana. It has been worn a couple of times before. Mary embraced the style of her red dress with a black Prada jacket. At first I thought it was a new blue jacket. Still I tend to stick with that it is her old Prada piece. Anyone intervening? Somehow I wish it had been blue. That would have made her outfit even more outstanding.

To complete her look she wore remarkable accessories. First I spotted a pair of golden Dulong Fine Jewelry earrings featuring diamonds and her Orit Elhanati necklace. Both pieces have been worn previous times before. Other than this she wore her golden bangle from Cartier and some other bracelets which I can't identify at the moment. As mentioned before Mary dazzled wearing blue accessories as well. The blue leather tote from Prada and her colour-matching Gianvito Rossi pumps is how she made her outfit even more amazing. Tell me what you think. As you may sense; I am blown away by her outfit. Somehow it makes me happy to look at.

Day 2. Official visit to Finland

Friday, September 14th

On Thursday 13th the Crown Princess arrived to Helsinki in Finland to attend a business promotion visit. She was never part of the plan till her husband was unable to attend. The day before she both attended exhibitions, food events and much more.

The following day it was time for the Crown Princess to visit Turku - a city on the West Coast. Turku is the place when it comes to maritime industry in Finland. Wearing a white safety helmet and glasses, she was given a guided tour around (among others) Meyer Turku where a cruise ship build right now. Imagine you have to build a cruise ship? What a task to complete.

She also had the opportunity to met Minna Arve, who is Major of Turku. Minna Arve welcomed the Crown Princess when visiting Forum Marinum. Here she even got her own spot - an honorary plate with her name on. What a gesture. While visiting Forum Marinum she met with several representatives from Danish companies, who told her all about their work and futures projects.

Visiting Turku Mary was simply dressed in a black suit. Seems like suits are popular right now. To me it is a victory. I sincerely hope that more women will wear suits from now on. They look great, are comfortable and easy to wear and suits come in a million different colours and prints. It does not get any better.

Mary styled her black suit with a blue Hugo Boss blouse and old MaxMara pumps featuring that chunky heel. I kinda missed those pumps. They look comfortable to wear all day. She belted her ZARA blazer with a belt that really caught my eye. It is not the first time we see it but I can't figure out where it is from. Love its simplicity - as with the rest of her outfit. She matched her outfit with black pearl jewellery from Dulong Fine Jewelry.

Her hair looks so much longer than I remembered. Maybe some curls would do great with this outfit? Or a half updo perhaps? Can't wait to see some more updo's. That would be amazing.

Day 1. Official visit to Finland

Thursday, September 13th

A couple of weeks ago the Crown Prince had a back surgery due to a discusprolapse, this is why his wife has taken over a few jobs for him. So now the Crown Princess is visiting Finland all officially on occasion of a business promotion. You do not hear me complain; we welcome a promotion visit with gratitude, right?

She arrived to Helsinki around noon in a great spirit and was warmly welcomed with red and white flags, smiles and lots of happy children. What a sight to see. The Major of Helsinki, Jan Vapaavuori also welcomed the Crown Princess at the arrival. After the official welcoming ceremony at the City Hall in Helsinki Crown Princess Mary attended multiple meetings and several lunches. Among other she participated 'Urban Solutions in the Nordic area' and a seminar in Store Enso Headquarter. Crown Princess Mary also attended en exhibition called 'Urban Living Room Exhibition' and participated 'New Nordic Food' event where it is all about food. So many interesting and fascinating events.

During her trip she is accompanied by Danish Minister of Environment and Food, Jakob Ellemann-Jensen. Don't think the two of them as traveled along before, but they seem to get along very well. All day she seemed in an excellent mood - always with a smile on her face

I am completely overwhelmed by what she wore - a brand new, rose coloured suit from Andiata (collection: AW18). The designer also posted the news about her wearing their suits, here. Mary has worn their designes a couple of times before and I think you loved it as much as I did. What do you think about this piece? Personally I have a thing about suits. Women look great wearing a suit. Both plain in colour and printed. I just invested in a suit myself. A navy blue one with small dots.

Mary looks so comfortable in her new rose coloured suit. Every little detail is exquisite. I am a great admirer of Andiata creating such a wonderful suit. She styled her suit with white accessories - a new white pleated blouse, pearl earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry and a creamy white handbag from Prada. The bag is an old piece that still looks absolutely great. Mary also embraced the outfit by wearing other jewellery from Dulong Fine Jewelry and her golden Cartier bangle.

Matching the rest of the outfit she also wore white, suede pumps. I strongly believe they are from Gianvito Rossi. Right now I am not sure if we have seen them before, but I don't think so. To me they look new. I can't hide my excitement. Everything about this look is incredible. It is sophisticated, chic and perfectly suitable for the occasion.

Next to her Cartier bangle she is wearing yet another golden bracelet. I have not been able to find a clear closeup, but I have an idea that it is a new design from Dulong Fine Jewelry. Take a look and tell me what you think.

Her first day in Helsinki, Finland, has been really busy. She arrived around noon to the capital city where she was welcomed by the major and lots of happy children. The Crown Princess attended several different events as part of her visit, which she had taken over from her husband. Among other things she visited 'Urban Living Room Exhibition' and helped prepare a meal at 'New Nordic Food' event. Her day wasn't over yet.

In the evening she arrived to attend an official dinner in Helsinki on occasion of her visit. The dinner took place at Finlanda Hall. It was as guest of honor she attended the dinner, along with numbers Danish and Finnish politicians, entrepreneurs etc. The Crown Princess looked great at the arrival and was one big smile. As she was welcomed with a handshake; she welcomed other guests with a handshake as well.

Attending dinner abroad as part of an official visit takes a good-looking outfit. I don't know what I had expected to see, but differently not this. She embraced a rather simple evening look by wearing a few reused pieces. The black blouse has been seen back in 2014 at a gala dinner in Copenhagen, here. At that time she wore it with her Jayson Brunsdon skirt. In Finland Mary had chosen to wear the blouse with her green jacquard Hennes & Mauritz skirt - the one that was altered from dress to skirt. Do you recall it? She wore it at 'Copenhagen Fashion Summit 2018' with a white button-down, here. I prefer it with the white shirt.

Dinner time in Helsinki. Mary embraced the style wearing large diamond earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry - nothing new about them. Nor about the little black box clutch which has been identified as Sergio Rossi awhile ago. Gianvito Rossi designed her magnificent mesh pumps. Can't get enough of them. The bracelet goes way back but has never been found.

Comes to hair and makeup; I am a bit surprised to see her wear such a strong coloured lipgloss. Usually she wears lighters berry colours. This one is much darker. Do you like that on her? I do.

Flag Day 2018

September, Wednesday 5th

For several years the Crown Princes couple have showed their respect and support to both soldiers and their families by attending 'the Flag Day' for Denmark's deployed soldiers. The ceremony goes back to 2009 and aim to honor deployed soldiers and their efforts, provided in a number of the world's conflict areas.

This year the Crown Princess attended on her own because of her husbands surgery. Crown Princess Mary was guest of honor. She attended a couple of different events on occasion of 'the Flag Day'. First she arrive to Kastellet to place a wreath to show support and to honor those who devote their life to make a difference. The world stood still for a minute in silence. Representatives from both the Danish Home Guard, the Police force, Emergency Management and Veterans, among others, did also attend the ceremony at Kastellet.

The Crown Princess attended a church service in Holmens Church - where Prince Vincent and Princess Josephine were christened. The memorial service was to honor those we lost in battle. Later on she attended a parade at Thorvaldsens Square near Christiansborg Castle in Copenhagen.

Crown Princess Mary was not the only royal family member who was present at 'the Flag Day'. Prince Joachim and Princess Marie attended several events on the same occasion in Fredericia.

Showing her support to Danish soldiers on Wednesday Mary was dressed in the most incredible layered dress from A.L.C. I learned about its identify from Heaven, but Samantha was able to find it. A first glance I was sure we had seen the dress before a couple of year ago at a Christmas event at Christiansborg Castle in 2016, here. It was told to be new so I could not be her old one, right? Then a couple of you shared your thoughts about her dress and expressed that it looked a lot like the one from 2016. The dress is actually also included in the ultimate shopping guide to fall 2016, here. Nevertheless it has now been identified - and it looks amazing on her. She belted her outfit with a Céline belt.

Mary embraced the style by wearing numerous incredible accessories. First of all she wore one of her Susanne Juul hats that goes way back in time. I do not know when we first saw it, but it is many years ago. She has it in a few other colours too. I see what looks like diamond earrings from Hartmanns and that new flower necklace embellished with clear and shiny diamonds from Tiffany (collection: Paper Flowers). I hope for a clear close-up one day. Other than this Mary dazzled in nude patent pumps from Christian Louboutin.

Her hair and makeup was flawless as usual. For year and year I have been in love with the chignon. First it looks great for both day and night events. Second a chignon can be chic and messy, but also straight and more professional. Look for inspiration - I am sure you are going to love this updo as much as I do. Think I have advocated for the hairstyle many times before.
