28 August
She is one busy woman, who arrived home from a long vacation only a couple of weeks ago. On Wednesday Crown Princess Mary arrived to the Danner House in Copenhagen to watch 'DANNER - A Countess of the People'. A play that shows life as a woman during the 19th century. The play is based on the life of Countess Danner, who was married to King Frederik 7.
Countess Danner was born Louise Christine Rasmussen in 1815. She later married Frederik 7 as his "second wife" which means that if the couple had any children they would not inherit the throne. But that is a completely other story. In 1873, Countess Danner decided to set up a foundation and built a house for vulnerable women. In the end there were no more money left and the house where sold. The new owner wanted to demolish the building, but it never happened. In 1979, women took over the house and bought it back as a women's house. Danner House has served as a women's and crisis center and today Danner is a private organization that works nationally and internationally to stop violence against women and children in close relationships, here.
Crown Princess Mary attended the event as chairwomen and founder of the Mary Foundation, who shared the post below on Facebook. She was in a splendid mood despite tropic weather. From first raw the Crown Princess watched the play that portray Countess Danner and her life as Countess of the people.

The weather was unbelievably warm that day, when Mary attended the play in Danner House. Despite that she had chosen a black dress featuring length and 3/4 sleeves. Hopefully it is not as warm as it look. I am a fan of black, but during summer time black is banned from any outfit. How do you feel about black?
Well the dress is a reuse. It goes back to 2017 when she first wore it at Copenhagen TV-Festival 2017, here. Maybe you remember the outfit because it looks almost exactly like her outfit worn on August 28th. Mary embraced the style of the dress with an unidentified turquoise necklace and matching ring. Even the clutch and heeled sandals matched with perfection. I am still not sure where both necklace, ring and clutch are from so if you happen to know more than me let me hear from you.
Mary also styled her look with Dulong Fine Jewelry earrings and a golden bracelet. I also see one bracelet from Cartier. The others I do not recognize at the moment. What made me most excited is her shoes - Alexandre Birman heeled sandals. I adore the design. She first wore them in 2013 at Copenhagen International Fashion Fair, here. Since then I had a dream that one day they would be part of my personal shoe collection. Anything from Mary's closet you wish were yours? (I have quit a list myself).
