Visit at the Deaconess Foundation

11 November 2024

Recently, Queen Mary became patron of the Deaconess Foundation (Diakonissestiftelsen). Since the time of Princess Louise (1860s) - later Queen Louise, Queen's of Denmark have been committed to stand by the foundation's hard work. 

The foundation has worked for more than 160 to provide care and nurturing for people in all ages and to some of our most vulnerable citizens. They combine education, health and psychiatry and build a bridge between traditional ways of support and finding new solutions focusing on each individual person.

On November 11th, the Queen visited the housing 'Moment' which is for young adults. Moment is part of the Deaconess Foundation's social psychiatric project.

Mary looked great in her dark navy blue The Fold London suit. I really like whenever she's wearing a suit. They look good, are easy to wear and style. Goes with any occasion - day and night. Especially, blue is perfect for this occasion and time a year. Love that she matched it with a bright red Isabel Marant blouse. The splash of color is simple outstanding! Very elegant soft detail with the simple and edgy suit.

Mary accessorized the outfit with beloved gold diamond earrings from Sophie Bille Brahe. Not that many photos have been published from her visit, so I am not able to tell if she wore more jewellery. Nor which pair of shoes she was wearing. My guess would be navy blue suede pumps.

University of Copenhagen's annual party 2024

08 November 2024

University of Copenhagen dates back to 1479. Each year the foundation is celebrated with an annual party. 

This year, Queen Mary was invited as guest of honor to attend the celebration. She was welcomed by Henrik C. Wegener, Rector of University of Copenhagen and Chairman Merete Eldrup. In 2021, the Queen also attended the annual party. Back then as Crown Princess of Denmark.

Students who have won a gold or silver medal for their answers to prize-winning assignments received medals along with a travel scholarship from the Ib Henriksen Foundation and a scholarship from the University of Copenhagen.

Once again, Mary impressed me with what she was wearing at the celebration. I always loved the green Beulah London dress. The details are delicate, elegant and understated. Mary first wore the dress at the inauguration of Campus Horsens in 2021 and again at Flag Day in 2022. She matched the dress with the same green snakeskin belt as in 2022. The stunning brown woolen cape is a reuse from Oscar de la Renta.

This time, Mary had chosen the most incredible custom-made Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen earrings. Love the fine touch of color. The bracelet is a beloved Dulong Fine Jewelry creation made of black South sea pearls.

Her green snakeskin clutch from Carlend Copenhagen, hasn't got enough attention. It is so beautiful! A perfect match with the dress and belt. It goes back to 2014 at the presentation of the Brain Prize. I am always impressed by her ability to find similar colored accessories.

Her chic pumps are from Gianvito Rossi.

Two-piece or jumpsuit? That is the big question. Mary was indeed wearing a reused black Max Mara jumpsuit. She first wore it at the presentation of the Danish Rainbow Award in 2020. Personally, I prefer that outfit from tonight - expect from her hairstyle. I like the soft curly hair from 2020. Makes a great match with the sleek jumpsuit.

I absolutely ADORE her wearing satin yellow accessories. The bright colored Prada clutch and the reused embellished Manolo Blahnik pumps are a wonderful choice. I love a splash of color! The details are exquisite. What is not to like? 

Did you notice that huge yellow ring? Such a beautiful addition to her stunning outfit. The earrings almost deserve a post on their own. Her incredible new diamond earrings are creations from Julie Sandlau!

I am crazy in love with Mary's outfit at the Child Welfare Day! The colors are magical. It is no secret that I love the colors following autumn. Mary had chosen an ooolllldd brown suede jacket from Prada. Did you know that she first wore it in 2005 when visiting New York? The perfect example of "fashion never goes out of style". She matched the jacket with a beautiful dusty blouse and her Giuliva Heritage Collection skirt. It must be super comfortable to wear.

It is blouse new?

Love the twist with those leopard pumps from Gianvito Rossi. I am not a huge fan of anything animal printed. Nevertheless, I always look one more time when she is wearing these pumps. It is classy, right?

I really like how she wore 'understated' pieces of jewellery. Fine and elegant golden diamond earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry and a smashing ring from Rebekka Notkin. Mary also wore two beloved golden bangles. They are still a mystery to me.
