The official opening of UC SYD Campus Kolding

06 September 2022

Most of Crown Princess Mary's duties are in Copenhagen, but now and then, she also goes to Jutland to attended and participate events. Lately, she has both been visiting Herning and Sønderborg (here). On 

Tuesday, the Crown Princess went to Kolding to attend the official opening of UC SYD Campus Kolding. The new campus is education both pedagogues, graphic communicators, sound designers, etc. UC SYD Campus is now South Jutland's largest institution of education.

Crown Princess Mary was the one to official inaugurate the new campus. Later on, she was given a tour around the facilities, among others, a soundstudio. She also met with some of the students taking their education at UC Syd Campus Kolding.

Mary embraced a super chic (summery?) style at the grand opening in Kolding. She had chosen to rewear her light blue Victoria Beckham blouse and an old creamy white DAY Birger et Mikkelsen midi-skirt. She has worn this combo before. Among others, at an annual meeting with the Mary Foundation's Presidum in 2018 (here) and for some official photos by photographer Franne Voigt (here).

She styled the outfit with a raffia belt from Prada. I haven't really decided if I like it or not. It goes well with the outfit, but maybe not my personal taste. What are your thoughts?

As jewellery, Mary chose her beloved white South Sea pearl earrings created by Dulong Fine Jewelry. Both diamond ring and one of the golden bracelets are also by the hand of talented goldsmiths at Dulong Fine Jewelry. Rebekka Notkin mastered her other golden bracelet and ring.

No clutch or bag for this event, but her shoes are from Gianvito Rossi. Imagine wearing white suede pumps several times and they are still as good as new. Impressive. Mary wore the same shoes, when attending Copenhagen Business School's Responsibility Day 2021 (here). I am a fan.

Copenhagen Fashion Summit 2019

16 May

On Wednesday, Crown Princess Mary attended the official opening of Copenhagen Fashion Summit 2019 taking place in DR Concert House, here. The following day she, once again, arrived to DR Concert House to attend the conference.

Copenhagen Fashion Summit is an international conference with focus on sustainable fashion. The two-day conference was first held in 2009 - now ten years ago. It is a patron of Global Fashion Agenda that the Crown Princess participate the conference each year taking place in Copenhagen.

Once again she was accompanied by Eva Kruse, CEO for the Global Fashion Agenda. The two women has met on several occasions both in Denmark and abroad. This time they met in Copenhagen  for the summit. The Crown Princess was given a guided tour to hear about some of the participating companies sustainable solutions. Among others she visited Innovation Forum. She also attended the Youth Fashion Summit. Here 80 students presented "demands" to the fashion industry.

Her outfit at the opening yesterday confusted me a bit. I was a huge fan of that new printed Hennes & Mauritz dress. On Thursday she showed up wearing something a bit more "Mary". She had chosen one of her good old creamy white skirts from DAY Birger et Mikkelsen. It has been worn on several occasions styled with different blouses. This time Mary wore the skirt with a dark green v-neck blouse from Selected Femme. The style is simple and edgy. She embraced the chic style by wearing a thin Balenciaga belt and matching leather pumps from Valentino. Clever of her to colormatch blouse and pumps. That green color is just great. Don't you think?

The previous days, Mary has not worn that many jewellery. On Thursdays her jewelry were quite more eye-catching. Those pendant earrings are from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. First seen when she attended the opening of 'Fashioned from Nature' on April 12th, here. They are a mix of several different styles, but it has been confirmed that Lynggaard Copenhagen is in fact the designers. This brand also made her golden chain bracelet. 

The other bracelets are from Cartier and Dulong Fine Jewelry. Maybe you also noticed her wearing two rings - beside her engangment ring and weeding ring. This combo of a diamond band and a white pearl ring seems to be a favourite right now. We have seen her wear it quite a few times now. The simple golden one is from Dulong Fine Jewelry and I still wonder if the white pearl ring is also their design.

Magasin du Nord Fashion Prize 2018

Thursday, October 25th

The Crown Princess is indeed a busy lady these days. She both visited DR Girls Choir, here, presented this years Children's U-Country Calendar, here, and attended an evening event at Christiansborg Castle, here. She also spoke at a founds conference at PwC in Hellerup, here.

Thursday evening the Crown Princess arrived to the Art Hall Charlottenborg in Copenhagen to attend the presentation of Magazine du Nord Fashion Prize 2018. She was also present at the event last year, here. It was that event where she wore the same Britt Sisseck dress as her friend Nina Wedell-Wedellsborg. This year, such thing did not happen.

To win the Magasin du Nord Fashion Prize, you have had to make at least one ready-to-wear kollektion - but not more than six.

As part of the evening the Crown Princess was to present the winner of the honorary award, DKK 500,000 and a fashion show at Copenhagen Fashion Week. What a prize to win. This years winner is designer Emilie Helmstedt. Congratulations to Emilie Helmstedt with the very fine acknowledgement.

During her visit she also had the change to meet and speak with the other nominees.

Mary was a bit more silent in colour than the winners collection. Emilie Helmstedt has a very playful and creative way of creating clothes. Mary, on the other hand, had chosen something a bit more simple. She wore a brand new bordeaux lace dress. Seems like it took me a bit more time to identify her bordeaux dress as first anticipated. Thanks to two of you the dress has now been found at DAY Birger et Mikkelsen. Quite a long time since we last saw Mary wear something from one of their collections. Kinda missed their designs. And this is one good looking dress.

As her new dress, she was wearing a brand new coat. I have come to love this piece very much. Looks great on its own, but also next to the lace dress. Am I right? With help from Else Marie I am now able to share with you its identify. Marys new coat has been found at Julie Fagerholt Heartmade. One pretty piece for this time a year.

She embraced the chic evening style by wearing golden bracelets from both Dulong Fine Jewelry, Cartier and a chain piece from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. Gold and bordeaux are just a great match. Somehow I was sure she wore pendant earrings as well and she did. Mary wore a pair of reused earrings from Jewlcph.

Mary matched her outfit with nude Prada pumps and some pretty amazing soft curls.

Annual meeting with the Mary Foundation

Wednesday, May 9th

For years it has been a tradition for the Crown Princess and her foundation, to gather all collaborators and partners for an annual meeting. As last year, the meeting took place at Frederik VIIIs palace at Amalienborg in Copenhagen. The gathering makes it possible to talk about the Mary Foundations results from the previous year and discuss future plans. So around noon, the Crown Princess took  a stand and initiated the meeting with a few words as chairwoman of the foundation.

At the meeting Mary had chosen to embrace a summer chic outfit. Kinds relaxed but classy at the same time. Only very few photos from the meeting have been released, which makes it a little difficult to tell for sure what she was wearing. First glimpse of the new blue blouse made me think of Hugo Boss -so did a friend of mine. Shortly after, Heaven managed to identify Mary's new blouse as a Victoria Beckham design. We agreed that it is the first time she has ever worn anything from this particular designer. I really fancy its sleeves and experimenting neckline. When it comes to the bottom part it becomes a bit more troubled. Still I am sure to have identified what she is wearing to match the blue blouse. In my opinion Mary wore her reused creamy skirt from DAY Birger Et Mikkelsen from the launch of Loving Spoken, here, and at Day of Research 2016, here. Then I am a hundred procent sure she embraced the style by wearing a new raffia belt from Prada. As other accessories she had chosen jewellery from both Cartier and Dulong Fine Jewelry.

Hubertus hunt in Dyrehaven

Sunday, November 5th

It has been a tradition for quite some years for the Danish royal family members, at least some of them, to attend the Hubertus hunt in Dyrehaven near the Eremitage palace, here. This year Crown Princess Mary enjoyed a day in Dyrehaven accompanied by all four children -Prince Christian, Princess Isabella, Prince Vincent and Princess Josephine. The Hubertus hunt goes back to 1900 and has taken place since then on the first Sunday in November. Yes, very little changes in Denmark. To me it looks like the four royal children really enjoyed a day along with their mother and vice versa. From the balcony of the Eremitage palace the family closely followed the hunt; the Crown Princess with a cop of coffee in her hands. Following, the five royal members enjoyed a ride in Dyrehaven in an open coach. Several picture show that the family spend much time chatting with people also attending the hunt and the two princesses couldn't stay away from the horses.

We have already seen many lovely outfits the last few years when Mary and the children have attended the Hubertus hunt in Dyrehaven. I found some, here & here. This year Mary was dressed in a cosy, warm outfit probably because of the rather cold weather. She dazzled in a new knitted turtleneck, a new down vest from Seeland, a reused green coat and slim jeans. Maybe not the most exciting combo but wait till you see it. Looks just great. I got a strong idea that the knitted turtleneck could be from Ralph Lauren. About her coat I am way more confident. A good friend of mine, Kate, managed to identify the coat even though it is 2012, here. And it is from Burberry. Unfortunately, I'm not able to share a link with you other than to another blogger, who shared a picture, here. 

She also showed up wearing a pair of brand new suede boots in green. Not sure I like them very much nor have I found them yet. Any ideas? I would really like to hear your opinion on this one. Tried everything and I still haven't got a clue where they are from. Mary accessorized her look with not just one, but two bags. One new. One old. The old one goes a few years back and is from DAY Birger et Mikkelsen. The other one is a brand new leather tote bag from Prada. Haven't found the right colour but I'm pretty sure I got the right model. Other than that she embraced a chic winter style by wearing diamond earrings and a matching ring from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen.

Visiting Mali

October 23-24th

Kongehuset ● Frederik et Mary ● Twitter 1 ● Royals & Fashion ● Instagram ● Billed-Bladet

The Crown Princess was suppose to visit Senegal along with Minister of Development Ulla Tørnæs during this week, but was canceled last week for security reasons -no one really knows the exact reason for the cancellation. The visit to Senegal had focus on child marriages. Because the visit had been canceled, I think many of you had wished to see the Crown Princess attend the concert held at Fredensborg Castle on Tuesday hosted by the Queen, here. Am I right? Well, that didn't happen because Crown Princess Mary attended a conference about reproductive health and child marriages in Mali from October 23-24th. Minister of Development Ulla Tørnæs accompanied the Crown Princess in Mali. The Crown Princess met with, among others, Mali's First Lady Keita Aminata Maiga who also attended the conference, which by the way, was organized by UNFPA -the United Nations Population Fund, here.

The visit also gave her a chance to pay a visit to Danish soldiers and several members of the Danish Home Guard under UN peacekeeping mission MINUSMA, here. During her visit at the camp she got a guided tour around 'Camp Bifrost', saw a C-130 Hercules transport aircraft from inside, here, and enjoyed a meal with the deployed soldiers. As last agenda the Crown Princess gave a speech, which I imagine was an honest and honoring speech right from her heart.

Let's not forget what all this was about: reproductive healthcare, the fight against child marriages as well as girls and women's rights. Nevertheless, Mary wore some pretty incredible outfit's during her stay in Mali. In total we got three very different outfits. I haven't been able to figure out exactly when she was attending what -you know if she visited the camp on October 23rd or 24th etc. Still, I would like to pay attention to her clothes for a short moment by mentioning what I have been able to identify so far. It is always a dilemma for me if I should even be mentioning anything about fashion when Mary is working with a committed heart to fight for girls and women's rights such as reproductive healthcare and combat child marriages. Which is why I keep it to a minimum. I hope you understand and respect my decision.

Crown Princess Mary visiting Farmer Field School in Dhaka

I came as a total surprise to me when pictures of the Crown Princess in Bangladesh started showing up on my computer screen. Haven't heard a thing about this trip. Well, I wondered why she had no events coming up in April, but some months are quieter than others. What I have been able to find out, then Mary arrived to the capital Dhaka in Bangladesh on Wednesday April 5th left the country the following day. But I am not quite sure about the schedule. It is rather unusual that we don't hear about these official visits but it could be a matter of her safety. This is Mary's first visit to Bangladesh and she travelled along with Minister of Development Ulla Tørnæs and a Danish business delegation. The visit focuses on strengthening women's economic opportunities. As first thing in the morning she visited the project Farmer Field School in Moddhu Rakudia. The project aims to improve women's knowledge of the agricultural technician. The Crown Princess also visited the village Panbari which has been severely affected by floods, storms and high water levels due to climate changes. As both visits there were plenty of time for her to meet the locals which happily told Mary their stories.

During her first day in Moddhu Rakudia and Panbari she wore a comfortable outfit; a white button down shirt, beige trousers and matching slip-ons. Sunglasses protected her eyes while her hair were place on top of her head, keeping everything under control during the midday sun.

Crown Princess Mary meeting with Jaago Foundation and Auko-Tex Group in Dhaka

As part of the Crown Princess' first day in Bangladesh, she also met with a few schools supported by the Jaago Foundation. It has been a true pleasure to watch pictures and a video's from her visits. From the second she arrived every one of the children tried to get her attention -and they did. Every minute she spend along with the school's children. Earlier in the morning Mary also payed a visit to the capital slum. Everywhere she went, Mary was pleasantly greeted by the people met. Many of them were happily surprised to see a real princess for the first time in their life, although a little disappointed that she was not wearing a crown and a gown. In the afternoon the Crown Princess and Minister of Development Ulla Tørnæs visited a clothing factory Auko-Tex in Ghazipur. They were also accompanied by the Danish Ambassador in Bangladesh Mikael H. Winther.

Spending her last couple of hours in, among others, Ghazipur she had changed to a bit more colourful outfit. Mary paired a powder pink blouse with a pair of brown dress pants, accessorized with matching ballet flats.

Crown Princess Mary attending a reception

We haven't got that many pictures nor information's about her whereabouts during the stay in Bangladesh, nor do we from the Crown Princess' last reception before leaving Dhaka. At the evening reception on Thursday several locals, women, contractors etc. were specially invited to attend the reception. This gave Mary yet another opportunity to hear about challenges, projects, stories told by the locals and experience with what climate changes can cause of problems and maybe even how to turn it into something positive.

As many of the other attending women Mary were dressed in a colourful printed dress at the reception. She embraced the style with loose wavy hair and natural makeup.

Day of Research 2016

Monday, April 25th

As patron, Crown Princess Mary attended the official grand opening of Day of Research 2016, here. Here she also presented the Research Communication Award 2016, here. It all took place at the Zoological Museum in Copenhagen.

At yesterdays event, she attended both the official opening of the Day of Research 2016 and to hand over the Research Communication Award 2016. The Day of Research is organized by the Ministry of Education and Research. The setting was a little different then what we are use to see the Crown Princess in, because it all took place at the Zoological Museum in Copenhagen. Here several professors and prominent figures from the Zoological Museum, were invited along with the Crown Princess, who by the way (of course) attended as guest of honor.

The Crown Princess arrived around 10:00 am local time, where she was welcomed with flowers and lots of smiles. Shortly after her arrival, she entered the stage and gave the opening speech followed by a speech professor and psychologist Barbara Hoff Esbjørn, who received this years Research Communication Award for her work and research anxiety disorders in children. Along with Minister of Education and Research, Ulla Tørnøs, the Crown Princess visited four different areas of the festival including topics as mushrooms and DNA.

All of it seemed to have her sincere interest while walking around the festival in the rooms of Zoological Museum. These four projects is a part of the citizens science, where citizens contribute with their knowledge and collect data that is then processed by different researchers. Among other things, the Crown Princess was impressed to hear about the more than 50 ant species.

The weather is really not something special in Denmark these days. We both have warm days, but also many days with rain, wind and even snow. It's cold and foggy. A weather like this takes both woolen coats and knitted scarves to keep warm. But not Mary. She showed up wearing white, a skirt and bare legs. Not in a million year would I do anything like that. She was dressed in lots of different shades of white, a shawl and some other interesting accessories. We have seen the both blouse and skirt before. The skirt is a classy model from DAY Birger et Mikkelsen, first seen when she attended the Loveing Measure event, here. This skirt is now also a part of my Mary-wardrobe and I simply love it. The blouse has troubled me quite a lot. After all, it was found at Prada. Surprise. Identified by Kate, I know that Ganni designed her new white poncho featuring colored details.

She also embraced the style by wearing white pearl earrings and a bracelet from Dulong Fine Jewelry. Mixed with diamond rings from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen, she won my heart. When talking about accessories, I cannot help myself from getting really excited about her snake skin belt. Fabulous, right? Does any of you remember it? The belt goes quite a few years back in time. We first saw it around the time, when she and her husband featured an interview in 2005, which was published in an Australian newspaper, here. Then seven years later, she showed up wearing the belt once again, here. Somehow I always adored this Prada belt. Looks good on her, right? This time she matched her outfit with nude leather from Prada and a suede clutch from Hugo Boss.

Crown Princess Mary attended the opening of Copenhagen Fashion Week 2016 at Copenhagen City Hall.

Time for a more detailed post from when the Crown Princess attended Copenhagen Fashion Week 2016 taking place at Copenhagen City Hall. I am all excited about her presents at the fashion week. A couple of years she did not attend, but this year she was. Makes it a little more special and glamourous. The Crown Princess arrived with a great smile on her face and in a splendid mood along with her dear friend Ellen Hillingsø. The fashion week is where the Danish designers show what they have been working on for a whole year. Designers like Baum und Pferdgarten, By Malene Birger and Second Female presented their newest collection on special designed runway going all the way through the city. This year the Crown Princess was present at Tonsure's fashion show, which Countess Alexandra also attended. Unfortunately, I am not sure if they met. They probably did. After the Tonsure show, the Crown Princess attended another show by Jesper Høvring at the prestigious Hotel d'Angleterre. Before leaving she found time to greet the designer with his collection.

I am sure we all noticed Mary's outfit as the first thing when she arrived -everything else would be a little odd, right? She really stunned me with her outfit. Think I am in love. Unbelievably how she always manages to look this good. Have a feeling that you love her new coat as much as I do. A rather coat for her but with heels it doesn't matter at all. Often she wears different Danish designers at the fashion week, which is also the case this time. Kate was able to find her new blue coat at Fonnesbech (Collection: A2 collection), who also participated the event. Kate was a step ahead of me, because I had the same feeling that her coat could be a Fonnesbech design. It is described to be a combination of femininity and power. Matched perfectly with the blue leather Quidam clutch. First glimpse of the rest of her outfit, made me fall in love even more. That wonderful ruffle blouse and new trousers. I manages to identify her blouse as DAY Birger et Mikkelsen and Jennifer found her trousers at Julie Fagerholt Heartmade (Collection: Winter Holiday 2015). Mary accessorized her fabulous outfit with new Jewlscph earrings as Mai Manniche (Jewlscph's designer) proudly commented in a blog post, here, a golden Georg Jensen bracelet and her customized gold ring from Marianne Dulong. The golden ring and red nail polish are a great match. Many brands make similar colours of nail polish and you probably already have your very own favourite red nail polish. Last, but not least she wore leopard pumps from Gianvito Rossi. I fell almost humble getting the chance to comment on such as beautiful look.

The Australian Christmas

Embed from Getty Images

The day before Christmas Eve, I think it is about time to give you a resume on how the Crown Prince couple and their four lovely children have spend December in Australia. Because as you now, the family are going to celebrate Christmas in Tasmania with the Crown Princess' family for the first time in 11 years. What I know of the family arrived to Australia one of the first days in December. On December 3rd Mary visited the Children's House SIV, here, which was her last event before leaving the country.

As Daily Mail writes, here, the family have been seen in various locations from the Margaret River region to Ravensthope. Locals know how far these locations are from each other and to the rest of you; it is about six hours each way. They have been spotted at Cowaramup Bakery getting coffee, buying bubblegum in Gnowangerup IGA and enjoying some time with her brother John Donaldson at the Margaret River Chocolate Company in Swan Vally. Everywhere they go, they are  barely noticed. People describe them as down on earth and acting like everybody else.

About a week ago the Crown Princess was spotted shopping with her friend Amber Petty, Princess Isabella and Princess Josephine. In Australia the royal family also enjoy the rather good weather by swimming Mermaid Beach in Queensland. A few days before the 24th the crown Princess was also spotted with some of her friends south of Crystal Castle and Shambhala Gardens in Byron Bays hinterland, here, dressed in a grabbing outfit. She has also been last minutes shopping with some friends wearing white shirts, sipping a smoothie similar in colour to her blouse. Just a few days before the family returned to Denmark, they spend a few more days on the beach.

Update: I received a request from one of you, to do a more specific update on what Mary was wearing during her month in Australia. In first place I decided no to, because I think it is a private vacation and I think they should be on their own without journalists and photographers following each and every step. Still, this is a fashion blog about the Crown Princess, which is why I am now going to inform you about what she has been wearing -but no pictures. Only facts.

The launch of Loving Spoken

Tuesdays, August 25th

With the Mary Foundation did Crown Princess Mary attend the launch of the project Loving Spoken

 at Guldberg School in Copenhagen.

For quite a while we haven't seen the Crown Princess. Mainly because of the official vacation. Now she is back again. Of course this means twice as much work for me, but it doesn't matter. Nothing's better than diving into the royal world of overwhelming dresses and glimpsing tiara's. I know there is non of that in this post, but I'm sure you know the feeling. When the Crown Princess arrived to Guldberg School in Copenhagen to attend in the launching, she was met by a class of eight grade pupils with waving flags. The reason for her visit is a project Loving Spoken which gives the young people some tools to prevent violent relationships. Loving Spoken will be tested in several different classes before other school will be able to buy in 2016. The idea started back in 2010 which proves that such projects takes time to develop. I'm sure it has been created specially by people who work and understand these issues. Domestic violence is one of the Mary Foundations focus areas. Domestic violence is a hard subject to talk about and for her to be open and actually talk about makes the dialogue a bit easier. Of all my heart I hope Loving Spoken will be able to help a lot of young people to prevent ending up in a violent relationship. After she gave a speech, which was really incredible. She took plenty of time to chat with some of the young people to hear their personal story. She expressed how important she think it is to learn the young once and for all, to talk about their feelings and give them a way out if they need it. Even though hard feeling is difficult to talk about, we need to. This is also a part of the tools from the project: to be able to express your feeling's and thoughts.

Casual in black and white, Mary attended the launching. No confusing prints and colours, only plain claim colours with a little fun on the shoes. We will come back to shoes and other accessories later. Yesterday I had no time to look for her clothes because I was in the middle of doing the post from August 24th, when she attended the opening of the new psychiatric hospital in Slagelse. Luckily, I have amazing followers who are there to give me a helping hand. I was so sure that her black blouse had to be from Hugo Boss, but an awareness reader saw something I hadn't seen: the little white stitched heart '<3' on the back. This heart is used by Danish brand Julie Fagerholt Heartmade. I haven not been able to find the identical model, but this is enough proof to me. The link below is just to show you how the heart looks like. The sleeves were rolled up. A really great detail. Then we have a new skirt as well. A creamy white one featuring a high waist. Now it has been identified as Day Birger et Mikkelsen. It was found by stylish royal women on Danish Royal Family! With her new cream white A-line skirt and high ponytail hairstyle, she reminds me of a classy 50s outfit -the stereotype teenage outfit. Mary bring this outfit to a whole new level. The business style for everyday use.

No outfit without accessories. Mary chose simple and colourful jewellery to give yesterday's look a little more fun. We all know about the Anni Lu bracelets, I've been able to identify two of the three as Mess Army and Fun Army. The third one is her multicoloured sapphire Charlotte Wæhrens bracelet. I am considering to give myself one of the Anni Lu bracelets for my birthday?Than there was a new one or at least I think it's new. A golden bracelet features a circle pendant with an engraved 'M'. Could be a Jane Kønig tag. The two necklaces we also know all about -one from Orit Elhanati and Marianne Dulong. I also see a diamond ring from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. I was convinced she was wearing brand new earrings from Jewlscph and now I know she in fact is. Apparently several people have sought where they could purchase the earrings, so they asked the designer herself maybe because the link I had shared not worked... Then I got an email from Jewlscph where they explained which model she was actually wearing. Bottega Veneta is the designer of her expensive bag, like the Anni Lu bracelets we know everything about it. Mary has worn it multiple times at almost any kind of occasion, such as with the stunning and edgy Christian Louboutin snake pumps. It simply does not get any more stylish. She topped off this wonderful daytime look with a beautiful natural make up.

Crown Princess Mary at the arrival to St. Petersburg

To me Mary is a great inspiration and despite my young age I love to dress like her. I find her style one of the most inspiring and her way of match clothes is incredible. At the arrival to Russia, she once again convince me; her style is outstanding! Dressed in white trousers and a beige blouse with a new coat (identified of Pernille as SAND) and the amazing Christian Louboutin shoes. I don't know what you wear when you travel but my travel-style is much more casual then this. Makes me wonder if I should try to dress like this? Over her shoulder she wore an old light brown leather bag from Prada.

From when Crown Princess Mary visited The Wild Swans exhibition 

The royal-blue colour is so amazing on Mary next to her brown hair! On a visit to Greenland she has worn it before with the Elise Gug brooch. My thanks goes to Kate for the help of finding the brooch. After a long time and hours with search the dress is finally identified and Jayson Brunsdon is the designer. At the arrival to the exhibition, she wore the same grey SAND coat as when she arrived to Russia. She kept the Christian Louboutin pumps on. Mary is known for her reuse of clothes as well as accessories; this time she reused her snake skin Prada handbag, made to clutch. Her wonderful earrings are from the exclusive jewellery brand Figaros Bryllup.

Wauw... I'm the absolute lover of pastel colours and this match of DAY Birger et Mikkelsen silk blouse and the new Elise Gug pencil skirt is just amazing. The skirt has been found by Kate. The outfit show her slim figure and the colours make her the princess she is. You might feel my enthusiasm of the look! Every time I see her even though after 8 years of following her, she become more and more beautiful.
With some luck and a little knowledge I identified her new suede shoes as L.K. Bennett. I really hope she'll be wearing them again.

In the evening Crown Princess Mary attended a reception 

The visit has come to an end and at the reception the last day in Russia Mary was beautifully dressed in a black Hugo Boss dress, which she also has in white and red. She had chosen black pearl earrings and a bracelet both from Marianne Dulong. Then her shoes; in some way most women's eyes are drawn to other women's shoes they indicate (mostly) who we are and how our style is. With several confused hours and more then one to look for the new shoes. Now we know they come from By Malene Birger (AW 2012). I haven't been able to find the exact same clutch as the checkered she carried, my guess is that it's from Prada; please take a look at the link below and tell what you think.

Earrings + Bracelet: Marianne Dulong Aqua
