Presenting the Heart Association Research Award


March 26, 2026

It was a patron of the Danish Heart Association that Queen Mary attended the presentation of the Heart Association's Research Award 2026. The award is given to recognizes an individual or group for their outstanding efforts in the fight against heart disease.

This year the award was handed over by Queen Mary to clinical professor at Bispebjerg and Frederiksberg Hospital Eva Prescott for her work with the iPower. iPower focuses on an often overlooked issue in heart research - undiagnosed and untreated breast pain in women.

Mary looked absolutely stunning when she arrived at Hotel d'Angletere in Copenhagen to attend the presentation. She matched a reused burgundy blouse from Jesper Høvring with a brand new Rejina Pyo midi skirt. The color-match are incredible, don't you think? The heavy necklace and fine Aquamarine earrings were an elegant choice with the light and flowy outfit. I haven't really decided whether or not I like the python pumps with the rest of her look. The exclusive leather clutch is an Anya Hindmarch design.

Day 5. Official State Visit to Australia


March 18th, 2026

Royal Business Walk & A business conference

King Frederik and Queen Mary attended the Royal Business Walk with companies from delegations of Green Buildings and Renewable Energy along with a number of Australian collaborators. Then followed the official opening of "Partnering for a Green, Secure, and Sustainable Tomorrow".

For their "walk", Mary looked stunning in a black and white outfit. The Carla Zampatti skirt is so simple, yet the detailing are exquisite! Can't wait to see how she is going to style it in the future. At the Royal Business Walk, she paired it with a plain white Jesper Høvring blouse. The golden Rebekka Notkin jewellery are a great choice. Gives a little sparkle to a rather sleek look. Not quite sure I would have chosen python pumps (Gianvito Rossi) with this outfit, but I like the idea of mixing-and-matching. Her exclusive leather handbag is from Anya Hindmarch.

Later on, the royal couple visited Melbourne Children's Campus. They were given an introduction to a research project made in collaboration between Denmark and Australia on stem cells. Researcher's from the project had the opportunity to meet the couple and give insight in their research.

Visit at Headspace South Melbourne

Having visited the Melbourne Children's Campus, she had a quick change of clothes. When visiting Headspace South Melbourne, Mary was then dressed in white trousers, a Harris Wharf London blouse and blue blazer. Nothing bad about blazer but I'd really like to see anything else than blazers. She had worn them A LOT lately. She accessorized the look with cool Georgio Armani sunglasses and suede Gianvito Rossi pumps.

At the grand opening of artists Rhoda Ting and Mikkel Bojesen's art exhibition, we got a clear view of her wearing earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry, her golden Cartier watch and rings from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. She also flashed bracelets from Dulong Fine Jewelry and Rebekka Notkin.

Return reception: "An Evening in the Garden"

In the evening, the King and Queen hosted a return reception at the Royal Botanical Garden in Melbourne. The evening was hosted under the name "An Evening in the Garden".

The coupled welcomed all the invited guests with smiles, handshakes and a few words. Afterwards, when everyone were seated each of them gave a speech.

Once again, Mary changed outfit to something a bit more evening-appropriate. Her beautiful dress is a reuse from Zimmermann. She wore it, among others, at Count Henrik's confirmation in 2023. She matched the elegant dress with dusty pink Gianvito Rossi pumps and an embellished Serpui Charlotte clutch. Her earrings are custom-made pieces from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. I suspect her new ring may be from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen as well. My guess is that it is a custom-made ring inspired by their snake collection. Let me know what you think.

Day 4. Official State Visit to Australia


March 17th, 2026

Official welcoming at Government House Victoria

Imagine how many countries those Gianvito Rossi heels have walked? To mention just a few: Belgium in 2017Indonesia in 2019Norway in 2022Fiji in 2023, and Nigeria in 2025. Today, the pumps spend a day in Melbourne.

The royal couple was welcomed by Victoria's governor Margaret and Professor Glyn Davis at Government House Victoria. They also enjoyed lunch at the government house with representatives from Danish and Australian businesses.

Apparently, red is a popular color for women to wear in Victoria. The color popped up on trousers, blouses, on the inside of coats, and of course, Mary's stunning dress. It was custom-made by tailor Birgit Hallstein. She styled it with stunning white pearl earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry and other golden goodies from Rebekka Notkin. We also had the pleasure of her brown leather handbag from Anya Hindmarch.

After lunch, the couple went for a little city walk in Prahran. The area is newly rebuilt with focus on sustainability. King Frederik and Queen Mary were presented to some of the new sustainable houses and projects to come. The Queen also shared their experiences with sustainable solutions when creating the annex at Fredensborg castle.

Visiting Port of Melbourne & Melbourne Cricket Ground

After a quick change to a more casual outfit, the royal couple visited the Port of Melbourne. They were given a guided tour around the facilities and given insight in the harbor's work with green transition and development of sustainable solutions in the maritime sector.

Later on, the King and Queen paid a visit to Melbourne Cricket Ground. They attended the Australian Football League. Queen Mary participated a few exercises herself. The event focuses on a common culture of sports between Denmark and Australia.

Maybe not the most suitable outfit for a real session of Australian football, but way more suited than her bespoke dress. When participating exercises at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, Mary looked fine in (new?) wide-legged trousers, a plain white t-shirt and a Max Mara blazer. I do like a good old blazer but I miss outfits without an added blazer. Am I the only one?

Both NIKE sneakers and Gucci sunglasses were a great choice for the event. Her diamond Sophie Bille Brahe earrings and other golden jewellery from Rebekka Notkin are beautiful with the casual look.

Day 1. Official state visit to Estonia


January 27, 2026

You may have noticed my absence the last couple of months. Apologies. I'll try to catch up with everything that has happened since end of January.

On January 27th, the King and Queen arrived in Estonia to attend a two-days official state visit. The royal couple were officially welcomed in Tallinn by President of Estonia, Alar Karis and the First Lady, Sirje Karis at the City Hall Square. 

The Presidential Couple accompanied King Frederik and Queen Mary when paying their respect at the Monument to the War of Independence. They also visited the Memorial of the Victims of Communism.

Later on, the royal couple met with the Prime Minister of Estonia and Speaker of the Estonian Parliament.



I always loved a good old tweed fabric. The woven texture is one of my personal favourites. Mary's beautiful new dress is created by Danish tailor Lasse Spangenberg. The detailing are simply amazing. I don't even have to comment further. Have a look and admire the splendid work of his. Her fine coat is a reuse from Max Mara.

Her new headpiece is by Danish milliner Katrin Cecilia Jacobsen. On her social media she posted the headpiece in-the-making. What a treat! Turns out fabric from the dress is braided in with navy blue silk.

I'm sure you noticed the stunning sapphire and diamond brooch. It is called the vandflodsbrochen or the flood sapphire brooch. The brooch is part of the Danish Royal Property Trust and once belonged to Queen Marie Sophie Frederikke - wife of Frederik VI. It is dated back to around 1840.

Mary then accessorized her outfit with a chic brown leather handbag from Anya Hindmach. Her fine dark blue suede boots are new ones from Gianvito Rossi.

State Banquet in St. Nicholas Church

After a long day, the King and Queen were invited as guest of honor to attend a concert and state banquet in St. Nicholas Church. The events were hosted by the Presidential Couple.



This is exactly what I needed! Mary looked absolutely smashing at the evening events in her floor-length gown. It is told to be from Prada but I've never seen or read any evidence of that claim which is why I only share what I've heard. Nevertheless, it is a beautiful gown.

She matched it with huge diamond earrings purchased at an Bruun Rasmussen auction some years back. Don't know about you but I was thrilled to see her wedding tiara. Especially with her flowing soft curly hair.

Mary also embraced the style with a beloved old satin box clutch from Prada and fine matching pumps from Gianvito Rossi.

DTU's annual party


02 May 2025

Queen Mary attended DTU's annual party in Kongens Lyngby. She was guest of honor. Chairwoman of the board Margrethe Vestager (former EU Competition Commissioner) and Principal of DTU Anders Bjarklev welcomed the Queen at her arrival.

Both studens, employees, external partners from other universities, companies, industries and authorities were all invited to attend the grand party.



This is the main reason why I do not cut my hair. I want a hair-do like Mary's! Some years ago Mary loved these soft and elegant hairstyles. I loved that. Then fashion changed and now we rarely get to see her with up-do's. My dream came true at DTU's annual party. Her hair looked absolutely stunning.

So did her outfit. That new ruffled Zimmermann blouse is simple incredible. Almost delicate. Usually I don't like black on white but the black details are truly remarkable. Mary styled the new blouse with yet another pair of new trousers. Also from Zimmermann.

I am also thrilled to see that purple satin clutch again. It goes way back and is from Anya Hindmarch. The shape and pleatings are so beautiful. We also get a glimpse of her shoes. Reused studded pumps from Gianvito Rossi. Don't quite get the shoes but I like them.

Easter high mass at Holmens Church


20 April 2025

King Frederik and Queen Mary attended an Easter high mass at Holmens Church in Copenhagen. The very same church that hosted the twins christening in 2011 - and Queen Margrethe's christening in 1940.

Happy Easter everyone! 🐥



What a lovely outfit Mary wore at the Easter high mass at Holmens Church on Sunday. The colors are lovely. A bit Autumn-like but I am fan. Love how she styled the beautiful printed ME+EM blouse with the smashing The Fold London trousers. It is a match made in heaven. Her chic Harris Wharf London coat is brand new. Do you like it?

Look closely and you will see that Mary embraced the style of her outfit with a golden chain necklace from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen and fine pendants from the same talented designer. The wonderful brown leather handbag is a reuse from Anya Hindmarch.

Day 1. Official state visit to France


31 March 2025

King Frederik and Queen Mary have arrived in Paris, France to attend a three-days official state visit.

The couple arrived at the Paris-Orly Airport and were then welcomed by the France Presidential Couple at the Court d'Honneur at Hôtel National des Invalide - also known as Les Invalides.

They were escorted from Les Invalides to the Élysée Pakace for the official welcoming ceremony. The Danish business delegation accompanied the King and Queen.

Danish Minister of Foreign Affairs Lars Løkke Rasmussen, Minister of Defense Troels Lund Poulsen and the Danish Ambassador in France and Monaco Hanne Fugl Eskjær also attend the visit.

NO outfit will ever surpass this outfit! Nothing. I have many favorite outfits but her outfit at the arrival in Paris earlier today will surpass all of them. Probably also in the future. Mary's new Christian Dior set is marvelous! The style of it is so 1950's. I adore it.

It dosen't end with that because Mary perfectly matched the style with a reused black Jane Taylor hat and smashing sky-high Gianvito Rossi pumps. Not quite sure I would have chosen those heels but it looks great. The Mulberry handbag was such a clever move.

I am sure you noticed her choice in jewellery as well. The stunning white pearl earrings and the matching brooch are both pieces part of the Danish Pearl Poiré Parure. The elegant ring is a custom-made creation from Dulong Fine Jewelry.

We are treated like King's and Queen's at this state visit. Mary's shows all the best of her style. 1950's inspired Dior suits and now this! Her beautiful new blouse has been found at CLEA - a brand new designer in her wardrobe. Mary styled it with a smashing floral silk skirt from Lasse Spangenberg Copenhagen. Imagine your design worn at an event like this?! Must be such an honor.

She embraced the outfit with huge golden diamond earrings from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen designed by Charlotte Lynggaard - daughter of Lynggaard's founder, Ole Lynggaard. The blue Aquamarine ring goes way back in time but has never been identified. Maybe from an auction?

Her amazing pearl embroidered clutch is from Anya Hindmarch and the fine beige satin pumps are from Gianvito Rossi.

Day 2. Official state visit to Finland


05 March 2025

King Frederik and Queen Mary are on an official state visit to Finland these days by invitation of Finland's President Alexander Stubb.

They first accompanied each other for a visit at EMMA - Espoo Museum of Modern Art were they were given a guided tour around the museum. Then followed a visit at the Arkki School of Architecture for Children and Youth.

The couple also paid a visit the Aalto University and the Porkkala Garrison in Upinniemi. In between these two visits the royal couple attended a seminar about green financing followed by a business lunch.



Wish she would have worn another color coat. Don't think this bright color stands well with a soft grey. What are your thoughts? Princess Isabella has been seen wearing the Dolce & Gabbana coat at a premiere in Tivoli in 2024. Likely she borrowed it from her mother. I think Isabella wore it better.

Mary had chosen a reused embellished Prada jumper and wide-legged JOSEPH trousers. I kinda like the monochrome vibe. Looks great with her fair skin and brown hair. During the day she added a new navy blue down coat from Uniqlo.

A closer look revealed that she wore earrings that comes with a very special background. They belonged to Queen Margrethe and was a gift for Mary around 2012. Her ring matched perfect in color.

She topped off the look with a black leather handbag from Mulberry and midi heeled boots in grey suede. Mary has worn them before but I am still not sure if they correct designer has been found.

Reciprocal arrangement

In the evening King Frederik and Queen Mary hosted a reciprocal arrangement in Finlandia Hall with the Finnish President and his spouse Mrs. Innes-Stubb as guests of honor. Denmark's ambassador to Findland, Jakob Nymann-Lindegren also attended the arrangement along with other ministers.

King Frederik gave a finial speech with a thanks to the Presidential couple for their kind invitation.



This is not the first chalky white suits Mary has in her closet but this one has never been seen before - except from the trousers. The suit is from Finnish Andiata. Mary first wore the trousers in Paris on occasion of the official opening of the Olympic Games in 2024. At the reciprocal arrangement she wore the trousers with its matching blazer and vest.

Mary embraced the style with stunning golden earrings and a necklace from Dulong Fine Jewelry. She has the same earrings studded with diamonds but I am pretty sure it is the first time she wears a pair without any diamonds. The yellow diamond ring has been seen on a number of previous occasions.

The white pearl clutch from Anya Hindmarch and those golden leather pumps from Malone Souliers are a wonderful addition to a great outfit.

Reveal of a new monument


25 November 2024

Chairwoman of the board of Danner Vibeke Abel accompanied artist Kirsten Justesen to welcome the Queen, when she arrived at Nansensgade in Copenhagen. She was guest of honor at the reveal of a four meter bronze sculpture created by Kirsten Justesen.

The sculpture is facing Dannerhuset (the Danne House) once established by Countess Danner. Today, Danner is a private humanitarian organisation. They work to create opportunities that changes the situations for women and children exposed to violence.

Countess Danner (born Louise Christine Rasmussen) was the wife of King Frederik VII. She spend much of her fortune on vulnerable women and children.

Today, is also the day of UN International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women.



Her outfit was really well-chosen. Love how she matched her delicate bordeaux Jesper Høvring V-neck blouse with chic checkered trousers from SKALL Studio. Makes a great look! The old Prada coat was a brilliant touch. Always loved the little brown "belt". Splendid detail. Wonderful how she styled it with light brown leather gloves (possibly new) and her reused Anya Hindmarch handbag.

What is not to like? I really also like the elegant pieces of jewellery she had chosen. Those fine golden earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry and that brooch! I am a huge fan of brooches. Wish we would wear them more often. I have way too many myself.

We get a glimpse of her heeled brown Prada boots. Love wide-legged trousers and heeled boots.

Day 2. Official visit to Germany


22 October 2024

King Frederik and Queen Mary arrived in Berlin yesterday where they spend their first day of the official visit to Germany. They also attended a grand dinner in the evening with attendance from both Swedish and Norwegian royal family.

Their second day was spend visiting the Danish minority living in Schleswig-Holstein. The King and Queen were officially welcomed in Kiel by Minister President of Schleswig-Holstein Daniel Günther and his wife Anke Günther.

The welcome ceremony was followed by a boat trip at GEOMAR as part of a conference on energy in which the royal couple later attended. Then a visit at Danevirke and a guided tour around Flensborg House - the center of Danish businesses in South Schleswig.

I have absolutely nothing bad to say about Mary's outfit. Love the colors, mix of materials and how she added a coat and scarf, and had then created the perfect October-outfit. When visiting Danish minority in Schleswig-Holstein, Mary wore a beautiful new printed ME+EM blouse, a chic bordeaux Harris Wharf London blazer and smashing new The Fold London trousers. Hey, what is not to like? The beige trenchcoat is also from Harris Wharf London.

Mary accessorized her look with Sophie Bille Brahe diamond earrings and a custom-made golden ring from Dulong Fine Jewelry. I like how she kept it simple with her number of jewellery. Makes it look a bit more balanced.

The fine brown leather handbag is a reused Anya Hindmarch and the matching pointed pumps are Malone Souliers. Still in conflict with myself about the heels. They look super comfortable and Mary wears them with great elegance, but the design is just not my cup of tea. Later, she changed to a pair of navy blue Prada boots.

Day 1. Official visit to Germany


21 October 2024

Arriving to Germany

On October 21st-22nd, the Royal Couple will pay an official visit to Germany and the Danish minority in Schleswig-Holstein on occasion of the proclamation in January.

King Frederik and Queen Mary arrived by plain in Berlin earlier this morning. They were warmly welcomed at the airport by President of the Federal Republic of Germany, Frank-Walter Steinmeier and his wife Elke Büdenbender.



I have only been able to see a couple of photos from their arrival in Berlin, when leaving the plain. Looks like Mary is wearing a simple white blouse, navy blue trousers and a matching long coat. The photos I have seen are all blurry, so it's difficult for me to say anything for sure about brands.

She styled her travel outfit with comfortable Prada boots, a reused Ralph Lauren bag and a brand new headband created by Katrin Cecilia Jacobsen. A closer look revealed that she was in fact also wearing her beautiful printed Etro belt. I really look forward to the next couple of days!

The official welcoming ceremony was followed by a meeting with the Bärbel Bas, President of the Bundestag. They were given a guided tour around the Reichstag.

In the afternoon, King Frederik and Queen Mary met with representatives from the five nordic countries - with Germany as host, to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Nordic embassy facility in Berlin. Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel from Sweden and Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess Mette-Marit also attended the anniversary, along with Finland and Iceland's Presidents.

Have we seen this outfit before? Yes, we have. When the couple visited Norway back in May, Mary wore the exact same Jesper Høvring blouse, checkered Emilie Wickstead skirt and nude pointed Prada pumps. E Even the leather clutch from Prada is the same. Something, I think this time in Germany suits her way better. Think it is the 60's vibe that captures we. The soft blue coat matched everything perfectly!

Somehow, milliner Katrin Cecilia Jacobsen managed to create a headband in the same color and fabric as her beautiful Jesper Høvring blouse. That is truly impressive. Mary also styled her dreamy princess-look with large golden Rebekka Notkin earrings and a diamond ring.

I am enchanted by her wonderful outfit. Although we have are in end of October and autumn has already arrived, the soft pastel colors are still incredibly beautiful.

I was breathless when I saw the first photos of Mary's evening outfit at the official dinner! She looked marvelous in her brand new bright red gown from Carolina. Herrera. It's so simple, yet detailed. The cap-sleeves, belt and tailoring are outstanding.

Mary embraced the outfit with her wedding earrings created by Dulong Fine Jewelry in company with King Frederik. It was his morning gift to his (then) future wife. Dulong Fine Jewelry also mastered the elegant white pearl ring. We all noticed her massive pearl bracelet. It features the portrait of Queen Josefina of Sweden-Norway. It is part of The Danish Royal Property Trust stored at Rosenborg Castle in Copenhagen.

She matched the white pearl with a brand new Anya Hindmarch clutch. Truly incredible accessory. Such as the bright red satin pumps from Rupert Sanderson. Think I love pretty much everything of tonight's outfit. Even the hairstyle is perfect.

Day 1. 

The Olympic Games


25 July 2024

King Frederik and Queen Mary have arrived in Paris, France to attend the Olympics Games 2024. They first attended the official opening of the Danish Pavilion at Danmarkshuset (the Denmark House) and the Danish church 'Frederikskirken'.

Michael Starkbæk, Denmark's Ambassador in France held a speech on the occasion and DR's Girls choir gave a beautiful concert. Queen Mary is patron for the girls choir.

In the evening, the royal couple attended an official dinner hosted by the International Olympic Committee (IOC). The dinner took place at the Musée du Louvre.

The guessed were warmly welcomed by President of IOC Thomas Bach and his wife Claudi Bach.

L-O-V-E that Mary wore a red and white outfit at the opening of the Danish Pavilion - and following dinner at the Musée du Louvre. Royal Fashion Police identified Mary's brand new bright red jumpsuit as Max Mara. Isn't it simply stunning?! Think I just fell in love. She embraced the elegant jumpsuit with a white linen blazer. In a way I recognize it but can't tell for sure. Do you recall it? Have we seen it before?

I like wearing jewellery but sometimes I forget to. You know that? But every time I see Mary wear multiple necklaces and match several bracelets, I am inspired to do the same thing right away. When in Paris, she wore necklaces from Halberstadt and Dulong Fine Jewelry along with white pearl earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry.

She added a few accessories for the dinner at Musée du Louvre in the evening. Like a golden Rebekka Notkin bangle and diamond ring, and a sequin Prada box clutch. At the opening of the Danish Pavilion, she wore a magnificent brown leather handbag from Anya Mindmarch.

Salvatore Ferragamo designed her chic heeled sandals. Wished to see them again for a long time.

Official state visit to Norway


14 May 2024

On their way to Oslo

The King and Queen just participated an official state visit to Sweden and are now on their way to visit Norway. They are spending time on board Dannebrog and is arriving in Oslo by the royal ship.

The couple shared a photo of the two of them a few hours before arriving in Oslo.



What an amazing photo! I love the whole atmosphere. Casual and relaxed. Mary looked beautiful in a simple black and white striped Max Mara blouse, probably jeans an a lightweight navy blue down vest from Yeti.

Best guess is that she matched the casual outfit with a pair of sneakers. The blue Gucci sunglasses are a reuse. First worn when inaugurating the hiking route 'Skudestien' in August 2023.

Official welcoming

King Frederik and Queen Mary arrived at Honnørbryggen in Oslo around noon and were warmly welcomed by the Norwegian royal family. What a sight! Followed by an official welcoming ceremony at Det Kongelige Slott.

The couple then attended a ceremony at the memorail site ' The National Monument' for the victims of the war in 1940-1945. They also had the pleasure of meeting the President of the Parliament Masud Gharahkhani before having lunch at Kongsgården.



Wauw! Mary looked absolutely stunning when the couple arrived in Oslo, Norway. So polished and elegant. Love how she matched her reused plain white Ralph Lauren jacket with that paisley printed Erdem skirt. She emphasized her slim waist beautifully with a dusty pink belt. Great color!

What Mary do best is color-combinations. Especially, when she wears accessories in the same color palette. Like the belt, Max Mara handbag and exclusive pointed Gianvito Rossi pumps. I am always amazed how she is able to find matching colors even crossing designers.

I am sure you noticed her fine earrings. Mary inherited them from Queen Margrethe - who actually wore them on her official 18th birthday portrait. Mary first wore them in 2012. According to Billed Bladet, Mary's new brooch also belonged to Queen Margrethe. It goes back to Queen Lovisa.

Visit at 'Oslo Science City' and 'MiNaLab'

Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess Mette-Marit accompanied King Frederik and Queen Mary, when the couple paid a visit at 'MiNaLab' which is part of Oslo University and it an open laboratory for students and scientists.

The royal couple were given an insight into current research in microchips and the potential of quantum technology, such as the cooperation between Norway and Denmark on the green transition.



Love how Mary and Mette-Marit matched their outfits. Both wearing a fine blouse and wide-legged trousers. Mary had chosen a brand new blue and white striped button-down from Bagutta and old Chloe trousers. The color is simply wonderful. Never really thought about paring blue and brown.

She also wore a rather new brown leather handbag from Anya Hindmarch. First seen on May 7th 2024. We also get a glimpse of new Malone Souliers mules. I am not their biggest fan, but Mary wear them with such elegance.

Her stunning jewellery are Orit Elhanati earrings, a golden diamond studded Halberstadt necklace and a custom-made ring from Dulong Fine Jewelry. Splendid combo!

Gala dinner at Det Kongelige Slott

What a wonderful night it was when King Harald and Queen Sonja hosted a prestiges gala dinner at Det Kongelige Slott in Oslo.

Both Crown Prince Haakon, his wife Crown Princess Mette-Marit and Princess Astrid also attended the fine dinner.



It was indeed a magical night! Everybody looked so happy and all were well-dressed. Loved Queen Sonja's dress. The color is amazing. Reminds me a bit about one of Mary's Jesper Høvring dresses. Crown Princess Mette-Marit also looked beautiful in her two-piece.

Nevertheless, Mary took my breath away in her altered Birgit Hallstein dress. The Danish tailor really did a great work with her old gowns from from 2015. It is hard to believe it is even the same dress. Completely transformed. I adore the new details!

What's even more fantastic, is that Mary wore the exquisite Danish Pearl Poiré Parure - previously worn by among others Queen MargretheQueen Ingrid and Princess Louise. Read more about the parure at 'The Royal Watcher'.

She also embraced the evenings outfit with a reused silver clutch, her beloved Halberstadt necklace and shiny Manolo Blahnik pumps.
