 Presentation of the Christmas Stamp 2025


October 06, 2025

Queen Mary attended the presentation of the Christmas Stamp Foundation's annual Christmas Stamp. The presentation took place at Copenagen City Hall.

The Queen is patron of the foundation. The money raised goes to the five Christmas Stamp Homes in Denmark who house more than 1,000 children each year helping them to fight loneliness, social isolation and bullying.

Artist Emilie Melgaard Jacobsen created this year's Christmas Stamp. She names them "Christmas hope and wishing stars". A friendly reminder on how to help children to overcome difficult obstacles.

Mary truly looked magical at the presentation at Copenhagen City Hall. She wore a wonderful bordeaux Alexander McQueen skirt and a matching printed Roberto Cavalli blouse. She has only worn the blouse once in 2020 when presenting the winners of the Media Competition. I kinda missed it. Love the added bordeaux leather belt. Nice detail.

Both the little suede clutch and pointed Gianvito Rossi pumps had the exact same tone of bordeaux to compliment the rest of her outfit. Love when she pair colors like this. Takes quite a few years of experience to style outfits with such perfection.

Mary also embraced the look with new golden earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry, a diamond necklace from Louise Grønlykke and a Cartier watch. A closer look revealed that her bracelets and rings are all created by skilled Dulong Fine Jewelry.

Presentation of EliteForsk Awards 2025


25 February 2025

Queen Mary attended the presentation of the Elite-Forsk Awards 2025. She was accompanied by Minister of Education of Research Christina Egelund when presenting the awards to this year's five winners.

The fiver winners are all researcher's at Danish universities researching anything and everything from military decision-making processes over snake venom and fertility to quantum physics and gas technology. The winners are:

Professor Anderes Hougaard Lausten-Keil. Professor Ingvild Bode. Professor Morten Mattrup. Professor Schliesser and Professor Cecilia Ramlau-Hansen.

Each of them are given 1 million Danish Kroner to their research and 200,000 Danish Kroner as a personal reward.

The Queen also handed over EliteForsk travel scholarships to 17 ph.d. students.



Here we go again! Mary wore a stunning two-color outfit at the presentation of EliteForsk Awards ceremony. The same The Fold London v-neck blouse and burgundy Alexander McQueen skirt as in 2024 when attending the opening of an exhibition about the Mary Elizabeth Hospital. Back then you weren't that excited. This time I love it even more. She looks flawless. At the arrival Mary wore an old JOSEPH coat.

I adore how she embraced the style with only a few accessorizes. The reused burgundy suede Aqauzzura boots look great with the wavy skirt. Never thought I would say that but I do like it. Love the match of different materials.

Her fine rose quartz earrings are crafted by Dulong Fine Jewelry such as the golden customized ring. we get a tiny glimpse of a leather clutch. It is a Diane von Furstenberg.

Meeting with DRC Danish Red Cross


11 December 2024

Today, Queen Mary hosted a meeting with the General Secretary of DRC Danish Red Cross, Charlotte Slente. The Queen is patron of DRC Danish Red Cross and has been for almost two decades.

The General Secretary met with Queen Mary at Frederik VIII's Palace at Amalienborg to a conversation about the organisation's global activities and a status of the situation of the world's refugees.



I am impressed how amazing Mary managed to looks so elegant in simple black trousers, a black turtleneck and her stunning red Alexander McQueen. She first wore the blazer back in 2021. Since then, she has worn it a quite a few different occasions. Like at an online meeting with the High Level Comission in 2021 and when celebrating UNIFEC's 60th anniversary in 2022.

Mary accessorized her beautiful outfit with golden earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry and a brand new necklace. Like the idea that she inherited it or that it could be an auction. What do you think? Guess she could be wearing black pumps or boots.

Remember to follow my royal Christmas calendar and the royals own Advent calendar.

Exhibition about the Mary Elizabeth Hospital


25 September 2024

One step closer to the grand opening of the "Mary Elizabeth Hospital". The hospital is estimated to open in about one and a half year in 2026.

Queen Mary attended the opening of a brand new exhibition dedicated to the development of the new hospital. 

Director of Danish Industry Lars Sandahl Sørensen, Chairman of Region Hovedstaden Lars Gaardhøj and Director of Rigshospitalet Rasmus Møgelvang all welcomed the Queen at the arrival to Industriens Hus in Copenhagen.

Chairman of Region Hovedstaden Lars Gaardhøj and Director of the project Jesper Erdal both gave a speech as part of the opening. Queen Mary was then given a guided tour around the exhibition. She was given an inside in the buildings architecture, the innovative way of helping patients and the improved treatment at the children's hospital.



I am in chock! Mary died her hair in a lighter chestnut and matched it in color with her outfit. Sight! Autumn has truly arrived in Denmark and the colors need an update. For you who have followed me for some time know that Autumn is my favorite time a year. Especially because of the warmer colors.

Mary wore a reused v-neck blouse from The Fold London. Not that long ago, she wore it at a meeting with the "Queen Mary's Center" in March. The bright color has created a debate. So, let us take it one more time. Once and for all: is it a go or no go?

At first, I was sure Mary was wearing a brand new skirt but after a while I realized that she was in fact wearing an old Alexander McQueen skirt from 2016! She first wore it at the presentation of the Heart Association's Research Award in 2016. Love it then, adore it now. The belt was a clever detail.

She embraced the style with Dulong Fine Jewelry earrings and an elegant golden custom-made ring, and her beloved diamond 'F'-necklace.

My only issue with her outfit is the new kitten heels from Jimmy Choo. The burgundy color is EXQUISITE but I am still troubled with the heel. Imagine it with a midi or high heel. Then I would have been convinced. In a heartbeat.

Meeting with UNEP


18 March 2024

On Monday, Queen Mary hosted a meeting with Inger Andersen. She is the Director General of the United Nations Environmental Program. Also known as UNEP.

At the meeting, the Queen was given a status about this year's UN Environment Assembly, UNEA. Every two years UNEA brings together the world's environmental ministers in Nairobi in Kenya. The assembly took place in February.

Director General Inger Andersen also informed the Queen about UNEP's work in general. How they promote biodiversity and nature protection globally.



We only have a few photos from their meeting at Frederik VIII's Palace at Amalienborg, but just enough to tell what Mary was wearing.

She stunned in a reused black knitted blouse from CO and the most incredible tweed skirt from Alexander McQueen. I always loved tweed. Must be one of my favorite fabrics. Mary has worn the skirt quite a few times. My favorite outfit is from 2022 when she attended the opening of the exhibition "The Queen's Jewellery Box".

We also get a glimpse of her white pearl earrings. They are old ones custom-made by Dulong Fine Jewelry. Look closer and you'll see a magnificent golden bangle from Dulong Fine Jewelry as well.

Love that she is wearing her golden Cartier watch again. We haven't seen that in quite some time now. Missed it. What is your view of her outfit?

Handball match in Germany

● Denmark vs France ●


28 January 2024

... and then Queen Mary showed up at Lanxess Arena in Cologne, Germany for the final match between Denmark and France in men's Handball European Championship.

It is not the first time she and the family have attended important sports events. Like, when they watched the finale match between Denmark and Norway in 2019 (here) and the UEFA Euro 2020 in London (here).

Unfortunately, Denmark didn't win other than silver, but Queen Mary had the honor of handed over the silver medals.

Congratulations to both teams! 🎉



What other way to support the Danish team than wearing red and white like the Danish flag? That is exactly what Mary did. She had chosen a beloved red blazer from Alexander McQueen. Red is truly one of my personal favorite colors. It takes much for me to love the shade. This blazer has the perfect red shade. Not too light. Not too dark.

Her fine white The Fold London top was a wonderful and beautiful match with the blazer and black wide-legged pants. Black pants are often difficult to identify if they don't have specific details to look for.

Mary wore incredible jewellery. These custom-made Dulong Fine Jewelry earrings goes way back in time. They have to be her most worn and beloved earrings. The elegant white pearl ring is also a creation by Dulong Fine Jewelry.

If you look closer, you will see that Mary also wore a golden bangle. It features a diamond studded 'M'. I still need to identify here it is from. Halberstadt is the master behind her necklace.

Her glasses are from Gucci.

A very special greeting


09 August 2023

More than 2,000 children are following their mothers to crisis centers in Denmark. Often they have left their homes from one moment to another. This means that they now and then arrived to the crisis center without anything else but themselves.

The Mary Foundation has work along with the Ole Kirk Foundation and LOKK for years now and handed over very special backpacks to the children. The backpack contains everything from toys, toothbrushes, books, etc.

The backpacks also comes with the opportunity to write or draw a postcard. Crown Princess shared some of the postcards they have received from children at crisis centers in a little video posted on social media.

Celebrating UNICEF's 60th anniversary

07 October 2022

Now and then, the Crown Princess participate events organized by UNICEF. On October 7th it was time to celebrate the 60th anniversary of UNICEF Supply Division in Denmark. 

Crown Princess Mary attended the reception arranged by UNICEF and the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs to celebrate the anniversary. She even gave a speech to the national and international representatives participating the reception. Read it here.

For 60 years, UNICEF has given supplies to children all around the world. Children who live with war, conflicts, natural disasters, etc. These supplies are shipped 24 hours a day; every single day; every single year.

The Crown Princess also got the chance to pack some boxes herself. Boxes getting ready to be shipped with school material to teachers and children in some of the most conflicted countries around the world.

Impressive, how much a simple burgundy blazer can do for an outfit! This outstanding Alexander McQueen blazer is, by not doubt, one of my favourite pieces in her wardrobe. The colours is magnificent. If it works that well with only black, I have not decided yet. What do you think? Somehow, it looks great with those plain black trousers and that turtleneck blouse. She almost look streamlined - can one describe it that way?

I truly adore her ponytail with this outfit. Has her hair suddenly become very long? Nevertheless, Mary looks smashing with a simple ponytail - spiced up with some soft waves. Really clever. I have still not been able to identify the designer of her earrings. Mary has worn them so many times, but I am still lost in my search. She embraced the style with a rather huge golden Dulong Fine Jewelry ring and a matching one from the same jewellery designer.

We only get a glimpse of her shoes. Black pointed boots. To me the designer is clear: it is Gianvito Rossi. Mary loves wearing ankle boots with long-legged trousers. Do we have a winner?

Presentation of the DI Prize 2022

27th September 2022

For some years, Crown Princess Mary has been guest of honor at the DI Summit to present the DI Prize (here) (here). It was also the case this year. The summit (and award ceremony) took place in Royal Arena.

Crown Princess Mary arrived to Royal Arena and was warmly welcomed by the President and CEO of COWI and chairman of Danish Industry Lars-Peter Søbye and managing director of Danish Industry Lars Sandahl Sørensen. She was accompanied by the two of them the whole ceremony.

Before presenting the winning company, Crown Princess Mary gave a speech on the occasion (here). Kamstrup A/S received the prestiges DI Prize 2022 because of their special effort making Denmark a climate leader in the world through technological or digital product development. Congratulations to Kamstrup A/S.

Mary was super chic and business-like dressed at the presentation of the DI Prize 2022 in Royal Arena. She had chosen to wear her amazing suit from Alexander McQueen paired with a blue blouse. She has become very fond of these simple blouses. I was able to identify it as Hugo Boss.

As accessories, Mary wore matching grey suede pointed pumps from Gianvito Rossi. Not the usual hight, but something a bit more midi. Makes a great and comfortable outfit. I am sure you also noticed her wearing a brand new grey Mulberry bag. She has the same model in dusty pink (here).

Actually, Mary also wore quite a few pieces of jewellery, but they blended in with the rest of her outfit with such perfection you hardly noticed them. The two golden necklaces are reused creation from Dulong Fine Jewelry. Love the two of them worn together. A closer look revealed that she was also wearing a couple of diamond rings from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. In my dreams, I own one of them myself.

Meeting with UNFPA

10 March

The day before, on March 9th, Crown Princess Mary participated a meeting with the World Health Organization - also known as WHO (here). They discussed the current situation in Ukraine.

On Thursday, she met with UNPFA's Country Manager in Afghanistan, Dr. Aleksandar Sasha Bodiroza. Crown Princess Mary has been patron of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) since 2010. The meeting took place at Frederik VIII's Palace at Amalienborg.

Dr. Aleksandar Sasha Bodiroza informed the Crown Princess on the situation of women and girls in Afghanistan following the Taliban's takeover of the country back in August last year. With this takeover followed a special need for extra humanitarian aid in order to support the population's access to, among other things, health facilities.

Crown Princess Mary payed her sincere respect to UNFPA and their work in Afganistan. 



Meeting with UNFPA on Thursday, Mary embraced a chic outfit. She wore a brand new bright bluse blouse. It looks so comfortable! I have not yet been able to identify it. Any ideas? The beautiful grey checkered blazer is a reuse from Alexander McQueen. I am not sure the blouse and blazer mixed is a personal favourite on mine, but I love the idea of a "printed" blazer and a simple plain blouse.

We do not get a glimpse of the rest of her outfit. I guess, she could be wearing either black trousers or perhaps the matching ones as worn at the launch of the "State of World Population report 2021" (here).

The stunning glasses are from Gucci. I really like, when Mary is wearing glasses. Looks good on her and then with that simple ponytail. Looks exquisite - just like her golden Cartier bangle. Wish we had a better photo of her outfit. Maybe one day, she will wear it on a more official event.

Meeting with WHO

09 March

Ukraine is on everybody's mind. Hopes and positive thoughts are send their way. On Wednesday, Crown Princess Mary met with the World Health Organization - also known as WHO, to be informed about the current situation. WHO work tirelessly to save lives, ensure medical supplies and make sure that health professionals can carry out their work in and around Ukraine.

Crown Princess Mary shared her deepest respect for the work that WHO are currently doing in Ukraine, in a post on social media.

For some years, the Crown Princess has been patron of WHO Regional Office for Europe. It is in this position she participated the meeting at Amalienborg with representatives from the World Health Organizations.



At the meeting with WHO at Amalienborg, Mary wore a simple outfit. The warm red blazer is an Alexander McQueen design. She matched it with a plain black turtleneck blouse. Guess she could be wearing black trousers as well and maybe matching pointed pumps. We also get a glimpse of her Cartier bracelet and golden Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen earrings.

"A Queen's Jewellery Box"

21 January

Celebrating ones 50th anniversary as Queen of Denmark makes a full calendar - even though many of the events have either been cancelled or given a new date. But the opening of the exhibition "A Queen's Jewellery Box" was still on. 

The exhibition is exhibited at Christian VIII's Palace at Amalienborg. On display are over 200 known and more unknown pieces of jewellery of hers exhibited. They all have something to do with her personal life and of course, her life as Queen of Denmark. A part of the exhibition focused on Queen Ingrid's jewellery later inherited to her daughter.

For the opening, Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary has chosen to take the short walk from their home at Frederik VIII's Palace to Christian VIII's Palace. The are a few hundred meters apart. Princess Benedikte also attended the official opening honouring her sister on occasion of her big sisters anniversary.

Director of Kongernes Samling, cabinet secretary Henning Fode and museum director Thomas C. Thulstrup gave the opening speeches. They were followed by the Queen herself, who officially opened the exhibition.

Well, well, well. What a look! For me, it was love a first sight. It took me breathless. Just look at her, she shine like a star on a cloudless night. Mary truly impressed me with her red tweed skirt from Alexander McQueen and that creamy white Ralph Lauren jacket. Both pieces are previously own on several occasions. Among other events, she wore the skirt at the presentation of Hjertneforeningen's and Børnehjertefonden's Research Grants 2019 (here). The stunning light brown wool shawl is also on old pieces. I have never been able to identify it, but maybe one day I will.

Mary embraced the style of her magnificent outfit by wearing yellow and white diamond earrings. The impressive, rather huge, diamond ring are from Dulong Fine Jewelry. The other one is a golden diamond ring from Rebekka Notkin.

I do not know if you noticed her new golden brooch as well? Many did not see it. I recognized it right away: it a design by Ditte Bjerregaard and Sofie Elkjær Jensen. They created this incredible golden brooch on occasion of the 50th anniversary for Georg Jensen. The design is inspired by the Queen's quite: "God's help, the love of the people, the strength of Denmark". The Queen was given a special edition in gold and with studded diamonds (here). Mary's is in plain gold. The brooch can be purchased, but in silver with a golden detail. She also matched the outfit with same-colour Prada pumps and her 1602 clutch.

Presentation of Hjerteforeningen's and Børnehjertefondens Research Grants 2021

09 November

As patron of more than 30 foundations, organizations, etc. Crown Princess Mary is differently a passioned and busy woman. Two of her patronages are Hjerteforeningen and Børnehjertefonden. So, when the two of them has arranged the presentation of Hjerteforeningen's and Børnehjertefondens Research Grants 2021, Crown Princess Mary also attended the event.

It took place at prestiges Hotel d'Angleterre in Copenhagen. For many years, the Crown Princess has taken part in the presentation of the Research Grants honoring promising projects in the field of cardiovascular disease research.

The Crown Princess Mary warmly welcomed by ambassador for Hjerteforeningen Birthe Kjær. She is a famous Danish singer. On occasion of the presentation, Crown Princess Mary held a speech and thanked all those who have contributed to make it possible throughout the years.

Later, she handed over three research grants. They were given to Professor Henning Bundgaard from Rigshospitalet, assistent professor Per Agger from Aarhus University Hospital and PhD student Flemming Javier Olsen from Herlev and Gentofte Hospital.

What a beautiful outfit Mary wore at the presentation of Hjerteforeningen's and Børnehjertefondens Research Grants 2021, which took place at Hotel d'Angleterre in Copenhagen. She had chosen one of her old beloved black jackets from WILLOW and a burgundy tweed skirt from Alexander McQueen. A really lovely match to honor autumn.

Mary embraced the look with her golden Cartier bracelet and Sophie Bille Brahe diamond earrings. I have never been that crazy about these earrings, but it seems like Mary is a true fan. She has worn them so many times already and I think she will continue that tendency. The stunning golden leaf brooch is a vintage Emmons brooch. I have a golden leaf brooch myself and they are just great for November-outfits. Do you like wearing brooches? Mary also wore a magnificent oval ring featuring a dark purple stone from Dulong Fine Jewelry. It is unique ring from their Pacific collection (here).

The black Celine belt is also an old goodie. Highly loved by her. Mary master these thin belts with such elegance. It matched her black leather clutch from Quidam and those Gianvito Rossi pumps perfectly.

The opening of CFS+ 2021

7 October

We all know about Copenhagen Fashion Summit. Something Crown Princess Mary has attended every year since 2009 because of her role as patron. CFS+ was established the same year and is an extension of the original Copenhagen Fashion Summit. Due to the pandemic, CFS+ became a digital summit, but still focusing on sustainable fashion and a more sustainable fashion industry.

As both patron of Copenhagen Fashion Summit and the Global Fashion Agenda, Crown Princess Mary participated the opening of this years CFS+. She even gave the opening speech. The Crown Princess was "accompanied" by key representative from all over the world.

These representatives represent both NGO's, different medias, politicians - all part of the global fashion industry, all interested in finding more sustainable solutions for the fashion industry.



I guess her speech was recorded on October 5th. The same day as when she attended a meeting with WWF World Wild Fund for Nature (here). Think that is the case because she wore the exact same outfit for the two events. When recording the speech, we got a closer and clearer look at was Mary was (more specifically) wore.

Mary has matched her dark red Alexander McQueen blazer with a simple black blouse and trousers. A very professional and chic look. A really great outfit for the occasion. Not too little, nor too laud. She embraced this lovely look with golden diamond earrings from Sophie Bille Brahe, a Cartier bangle and one of her Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen diamond rings.

At first the shoes tricked me. She has so many of these black boots such as ankle boots, but now I am sure she was wearing her old Gianvito Rossi ankle boots. I get why she loves wearing them. I have one pair of Gianvito Rossi pumps and they are incredibly comfortable to wear - even with a 10 cm heel and being totally untrained for months wearing heeled shoes.

Meeting with WWF Wold Wild Fund for Nature

5 October

Since Crown Princess Mary took the job as President of the WWF World Wild Fund for Nature last year, she has already attended several events and meetings the with foundation. Like, when she attended the welcomed new thornback rays in Kattegatcentret in Grenaa in August 2020 (here) or the release of #ForNaturenWWF May 2021 (here).

On October 5th, Crown Princess Mary met with the rest of the presidium of WWF World Wild Fund for Nature for a meeting. General Secretary of WWF Denmark Bo Øksnebjerg welcomed the Crown Princess with a big smile and friendly words. 

At the meeting, the foundations new four years strategi. It is entitled "Bigger, bolder and better - for a nature positive future". What a name.



Not that many photos have been published from her meeting with WWF World Wild Fund for Nature. Still, we got a little glimpse of what she was wearing. The lovely red or maybe even burgundy blazer with the chick detail, are from Alexander McQueen. The blazer is not that old, but Mary has already worn it quite a few times. For instance, at the UEFA Euro 2020 in London (here) and promoting the Mary Foundations "Fantastic Football Parties" (here). She wore the blazer with a black blouse and what looks like matching black trousers.

A closer look at the few photos revealed her wearing an old necklace. Mary has worn it twice before with two different lengths chains. We first saw this beautiful necklace with a long chain at Danmark's Indsamling in January 2010 (here). She introduced a shorter version at the celebration of Queen Margrethe's 70th birthday in 2010 (here). I see a golden bracelet and a couple of rings, but they blurry photos makes it hard for me to tell anything for sure.

100 years with a diplomatic relationsship between Denmark and Switzerland

21 September

Often, Crown Princess Mary is guest of honor at different events. So was she, when she attended a very special dinner on Tuesday evening. The reason for her attendance, was the celebration of the 100th anniversary of the diplomatic realtions between Denmark and Switzerland, and 50 years with Roche in Denmark.

The Ambassador to Switzerland Florence Tinguely Mattli warmly welcomed the Crown Princess when she arrived to the Swiss Embassy in Hellerup. Tinguely Mattli was host of the evening. Richard Wright, Head of Portfolio Strategy and Member of the Board for Roche Dr Christoph Franz also attended the anniversary.

It seems like a wonderful evening for all of them. Crown Princess was really in a splendid mood. All smiles and glimpsing eyes.

Finally, we see that beautiful Alexander McQueen dress again. Mary first wore the dress in 2017, when  Crown Prince Naruhito of Japan paid a visit in Copenhagen (here). I do like this dress, but I also have many others I like a bit more. She changed that at the 100th anniversary celebration of the diplomatic realtionsship between Denmark and Switzerland. Mary looked stunning!

She embraced the style by wearing some pretty incredible jewellery. Of course, we all noticed her new Dulong Fine Jewelry earrings first. The magnificent emerald beads pieces worked as pendants for golden earrings from the same talented designer. Mary also matched them with a few other green jewellery. Like the thin and elegant Nadia Shelby necklace and her Dulong Fine Jewelry ring. A wonderful choice to pick the same colored stones. She wore a couple of bracelets as well. One from Cartier, two others from Dulong Fine Jewelry.

The black glitter box clutch from Sergio Rossi looked great with the rest of her outfit. Gives it a bit sparkle and glamour. Perfect for the event. The same goes with the Arteana pointed sling-back pumps. They are a light touch for an evening look. Her hairstyle was so inspiring.

UEFA Euro 2020 in London

07 July

It is no secret that I know very (very!) little about football. This kind of sports has never caught my attention, but the rest of the world seems to disagree with me - even our royal family. Both Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary share a great interest in numerous different sports. Riding, handball, swimming and of course football.

The Crown Prince Couple and their oldest son, Prince Christian, have already attended several games to support the Danish team. Wednesday evening, the three of them flew to London to watch Denmark against England in the semi final of the European Championship 2020 . The game was played at Wembley Stadium.

They arrived at Wembley twenty minitues before eight in the evening. All three of them were in a splendid mood. Smiling, laughing and having a great time together. Prince William sat close by and had a little chat with the Crown Princess and Prince Christian before the game was about to start. Prime Minister Boris Johnson watched the game too and also had the pleasure of meeting the family.

The Crown Prince Couple and Prince Christian had to leave London with no victory. England won the game. Congratulations!

I simply love Mary's style during these football games. I love that she wears the Danish colors and no the "obligatory" black. So many at the VIP lounge wore black and white, but not our beloved Crown Princess. Mary showed up wearing an old white Athé by Vanessa Bruno blouse and a dark red Alexander McQueen blazer. The blouse was first worn at the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro in 2016 (here). In London we only get a glimpse of how great this blouse looks, but luckily we have seen it before. We know how beautiful it is. Looks like she embraced the style with simple black trousers.

A closer look revealed to me that Mary had chosen some pretty incredible pieces of jewellery. Expensive jewellery, but easy to find cheaper. Her short golden necklace is from Orit Elhanati - one of her most worn necklaces. The other one, is from Dulong Fine Jewelry. This designer also created one of the golden bangles. She matched her look with a few other bracelets as well from Cartier and Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen.

Mary also wore a couple of diamond rings. The golden band is an Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen creation. Because of this design, I am pretty sure her new diamond earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry.

UEFA Euro 2020

17 June

Just last week, Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary watched the football match between Denmark and Finland. The game was part of the European Championship 2020. Unfortunately, Denmark did not win. We had the chance again on Thursday 17th, when another games was played between Denmark and Belgium.

On that occasion, the Belgium King Philippe had traveled to Copenhagen to watch the nerve-racking game and it truly was an exciting game. Denmark scored their first goal after just a few minutes into the game. The excitement was not to hide for any of the royal members watching it. Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary were accompanied by their oldest son Prince Christian, Prince Nicolai and his younger brother Prins Felix. All of them really seemed to enjoy the evening in Parken. Very enthusiastic about the game.

Before the game, Crown Prince Frederik posed for a group photo with his son and his cousins. A really lovely moment captured on camera. Unfortunately, we lost again. Congratulations to Belgium.

I always loved and adored Mary's everyday outfits. I know you do too. It proved that even in private, she is stylish and well-dressed. It is simply natural for her to keep a certain standard. That is something I love. When attending the football match between Denmark and Belgium in Parken yesterday, she dazzled in a red and white outfit matched with brown accessories.

The magnificent red blazer is from Alexander McQueen. She first wore it, when she promoted the "Fantastic Football Parties"-project on June 1st (here). Luckily, I was able to identify it rather quickly. Love to see it again already and it looks absolutely stunning with that brand new white belted dress. At the moment I have no idea where it is from. Nor where to find it. Any ideas? Maybe just an idea for a possible designer? Looks really lovely. Wish to see the dress without the blazer one day.

She embraced the style with the perfect pieces of jewellery. The golden hoops are a design by Dulong Fine Jewelry. They are also the creator or three of her golden bracelets. The one with small different colored stones, are really new. I already want something similar. It looks so beautiful. She was also wearing her Cartier bangle. Maybe you noticed her rings too? Outstanding diamond rings from Dulong Fine Jewelry and Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. Her heart-shaped necklace is from Ebba Sydow Jewelry. 

Mary had also chosen a few brown leather details. The belt perfectly matched her brown leather crossbody-bag from Chloé and those reused ankle strap heeled sandals. She wore them last year when visiting Kofoed School on occasion of the Crown Prince Couple's Prizes (here). Thanks to Heaven and her reader, they have now been identified as Gianvito Rossi.

Fantastic Football Parties

01 June

Denmark is known to love to gather up on big occasions - especially at sports events. On Saturday, June 12, we are ready to closely follow the European Championship in football. Danmark is playing against Finland. 

On that occasion, the Mary Foundation has teamed up with Denmark's Radio (a national TV station), DBU - En Del af Noget Større and Østifterne. They decided it is time for all of us to get together and enjoy and celebrate this grand event. This is the perfect opportunity for get closer again in our local communities.

Crown Princess Mary visited a football stadium in Copenhagen to talked about "Fantastic Football Parties" (Fantastiske Fodboldfester). The Mary Foundation, Denmark's Radio, DBU - En Del af Noget Større and Østifterne are givening away 150 party boxes to the most festive and inclusive communities. So now it is time to celebrate - and maybe win one of the 150 boxes. Are we ready to celebrate?



While recording the video, Mary was dressed in a wonderful outfit. So relaxed and comfortable. I like to try it right about. Even after more than 12 years following her whereabouts, I still get surprised and inspired by her style. This is differently one of them.

She showed up wearing a brand new red blazer. If it is as beautiful in real life as it is on tape, it is indeed lovely. I managed to identify her new blazer as Alexander McQueen. My first finding for a very very long time. Better late than never, right? She styled the red blazer with a simple white blouse - possibly a white t-shirt and dark blue (or black) trousers. This is as simple as it gets. Blazer. Blouse. Trousers.

Mary also wore a pair of new white sneakers. By looking at the style of these sneakers I like to say that they are from NIKE. Nevertheless, I have not been able to track down the right model yet. Can you? The reason why my guess is NIKE, is because of her other shoes from that designer worn at for instance when getting ready for the Children's Race 2021 (here). She topped of her look with a lovely curly ponytail.
