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 and a green emerald ring from Annikat. 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.

ReplyDeleteIn my view, suits are never out of style especially in the corporate and business world. Whether, it is a skirt suit, a pants suit, they are staples in a woman's wardrobe because of their versatility. I love the light colored pantsuit: it was not trendy but very classic especially with the cut of the pants with a wide leg and could be a day-to-evening outfit, easily.
I notice that the Crown Princess wore what looked like a cocktail ring on her left hand at the evening event. In the photograph, it looked like it had a green stone, but then it is hard to guess with photos these days as the colors seem to be off most of the time. Did you notice it and have you seen it before?
Regards,
RW.
Thanks for letting me hear what you think about suits. Seems like you love them as much as I do :)
DeleteI did notice the ring. Think we have probably seen it before, but never a closeup. To me it also looks like a green stone - a green stone square shaped. At the moment I can't tell when we have seen it before, especially because only few people notice and comment on these "small" details. Maybe one day we will get to see a better picture of this incredible ring.
Henriette:
DeleteThanks for responding. A square cut stone is usually called a "cushion cut'. In the photo, the stone does look square but then it also seem to not have a profile or it is not raised--it actually seems flat. Yes, I do hope we see it again--may be as part of a parure or even a demi-parure!!
Best regards,
RW.
The suit is a classic masterpiece. Crownprincess Mary looks fantastic regardless what she wears, but here she hits it 10 points. Andiata - the finnish brand can be bought in Copenhagen at Abfab Boutique, Gammel Kongevej 130 or www.abfab.dk
ReplyDeleteI love her outfit so much and I love the darker tone for her lips. She looks just gorgeous!
