Dinner at Kronborg Castle


March 05, 2026

What a magical surrounding for a dinner! Kronborg Castle in Helsingør roomed a fine dinner for more than 300 invited guests with the King and Queen as guest of honor. The guests represented Denmarks honorary consuls. They were gathered on occasion of the Ministry of Foreign Affair's consular meeting.

I know it was "just a dinner" and not something big and fancy but I had expected a bit more of her outfit for this gathering - and the King too. I do like her outfit. The simple white Hugo Boss blouse and that chic reused skirt made a great look, but as a guest of honor... The skirt is still unidentified. It made its debut in 2019. She wasn't even wearing that many jewellery or any spectacular ones. A little colors - maybe a berry lipstick or bordeaux nails would have done it for me.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on this one. Am I being too critical?

European Men's Handball Championchip Final


February 01, 2026

What other than a red and white outfit when cheering for the Danish team playing the European Handhall Championchip final? The game took place in Herning between Denmark and Germany. And what a game it was. Denmark won gold!

Maybe it was the Queen's new La Bagatelle blouse that made the difference? Nevertheless, her new blouse is indeed beautiful. I love when she wear bright colors. She styled the stunning blouse with simple black trousers and a matching red patent leather belt and handbag from Hugo Boss.

Shining in the spotlight were her golden earrings and ring from Dulong Fine Jewelry. I'm not sure about the heeled suede boots. Have we seen them before? Her chic glasses are loved ones from Gucci.

Day 2. Official visit to Egypt


November 02, 2025

Visit at the pyramids in Giza

The Queen arrived in Giza yesterday to atten the opening of the Grand Egyptian Museum.

First thing in the morning on her second day in Egypt, Mary enjoyed the sight of the Giza pyramids. She was even given the chance to see the inside of The Great Pyramid of Giza. Literally, she touch thousands of years of history with her hands. What a morning!



Mary embraced the most casual outfit. She matched a soft blue button-down with slim beige trousers and a shawl. The blouse has been identified as a new one from POLO Ralph Lauren. Very similar t another one of her blue denim shirts.

A closer look revealed that she styled the outfit with a reused brown leather belt from BOSS and her Jerome Dreyfuss phone pouch.

Visit at the Grand Egyptian Museum

Having visited the grand pyramids she continued her tour at the Grand Egyptian Museum. She was accompanied by Minister of Foregine Affairs Lars Løkke Rasmussen.

They were introduced to meet the famous Tutankhamun's coffin and golden death mask. It must have been treasured moment in her life.



Before going to the Grand Egyptian Museum to met with the Minister of Foreign Affairs Lars Løkke Rasmussen, Mary made a quick change. She was wearing a brand new blouse and matching green trousers from Zimmermann. Tell me it dosen't look comfortable. Love the loose fit and how she accessorized it with different textures like the brown leather belt from Max Mara.

The golden earrings are beloved ones from Dulong Fine Jewelry and the necklace is created by the talented Rebekka Notkin. She also mastered her golden bangle. Mary's two other bracelets are from Dulong Fine Jewelry.

Meeting the President of Egypt

Before she was headed home to Copenhagen Mary met one last time with the President of Egypt, Abdel Fattah Al Sisi at the presidential palace in Cairo. Lars Løkke Rasmussen also had the opportunity to greet the President for his hospitality.



Mary wore a beautiful bordeaux outfit when meeting with the President at the presidential palace. She had chosen a most beloved Jesper Høvring blouse and paired it with a stunning floral printed maxi skirt. It has yet not been identified. Maybe one day I am able to tell where it is from.

The cool leather belt was found not that long ago at & Other Stories. The smashing golden earrings are from Rebekka Notkin. It perfectly matched her necklace as from the designer and collection. Mary also styled her look with a custom-made ring from Dulong Fine Jewelry.

For the first time today we have a photo showing her entire body. It makes it possible for me to tell that she wore Gianvito Rossi pumps.

Grand opening of Headspace Tårnby


13 August, 2025

Queen Mary attended the grand opening of the new Headspace Tårnby at Amager in Copenhagen. Headspace is an open, anonymous and free service for vulnerable young people between the ages of 12 and 25.

When arriving at the new facilities at Amager Queen Mary was warmly welcomed by Chairwoman of The Social Network/Headspace Denmark Benedikte Kiær. She was accompanied by Mayor of Tårnby Allan S. Andersen, patron for Social Network/Headspace Denmark Poul Nyrup Rasmussen, CEO of Social Network/Headspace Denmark Trine Hammershøy and manager of Headspare Tårnby Marie Rosenkvist Jørgensen.

The Queen was given a guided tour around the new facilities after the official opening.

I really like how casual Mary was dressed at the opening at Amager. Love the beautiful blue/white striped linen suit from Polo Ralph Lauren. Mary first wore the set at the inauguration of Jetsmark School Center in 2023. She also wore it at Crown Prince Christian's graduation ceremony in 2024. She matched it was a simple white top.

Mary styled her rather soft outfit with golden pieces of jewellery. Like the beloved Dulong Fine Jewelry earrings and a fine custom-made ring from the same designer. The colorful beaded bracelet is a design by Dulong Fine Jewelry. It is the second time we see her with this stunning piece of jewellery. The diamond studded necklace is from Louise Grønlykke. Mary's golden diamond bangle is Rebekka Notkin.

She also embraced the look with a reused brown leather belt from BOSS and marvelous heeled sandals from Gianvito Rossi.

Summer at Fredensborg


05 May 2025

King Frederik and Queen Mary were officially welcomed in Fredensborg at Kancellihuset where the family will be living during the summer.

They were welcomed outside Kancellihuset by people who had showed up to get a glimpse of the couple. The Mayor of Fredensborg also welcomed the couple with a speech. The girl's choir of Fredensborg Castle Church gave a small concert on the occasion followed by music and singing by Fredensborg Brass Ensamble.

Mary looked beautiful in a very casual outfit when welcomed in Fredensborg. She wore fine navy blue trousers and a reused linen blouse from Bagutta. A first glance her coat looked new but she has in fact worn it before. Among others at the presentation of the annual Christmas Stamp 2024. The belt is from Prada.

She embraced the style with cool golden earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry and a couple of necklaces from Nadia Shelbaya and Julie Sandlau. I am very interested in her rings. The diamond one is rather new. Looks like a three-in-one-piece. On her other hand is a more heavy silver ring. I noticed her wearing it at the inauguration of the REGAN Vest-trail back in April.

The dark blue suede boots from Prada are a great choice for the occasion.

11 April 2025

Princess Isabella is soon to be celebrating her 18th birthday! Today she was celebrated in by people in Aarhus. More than 300 guests showed up at Aarhus City Hall to get a glimpse of her Princess and congratulate her.

Princess Isabella was accompanied by her parents and siblings when being celebrate in Aarhus. She was celebrated with music, dance and birthday cake created by pastry chef apprentices. The young Princess showed her appreciation in a speech

Mary looked beautiful when visiting Aarhus! We haven't seen that Hugo Boss blouse since 2016 when she received a donation from Inner Wheel as patron of the Maternity Foundation. Back then she matched the silky blouse with a black a-line skirt. At the event in Aarhus she dazzled in her reused Emilia Wickstead pencil skirt and a fine Prada belt. The colors are outstanding! Her creamy white coat is from JOSEPH.

Mary had also chosen nude leather pumps from Prada and a matching clutch. Very summery. I really like that she embraced the outfit with dusty blue earrings and an elegant new bracelet. The earrings go way back in time. They were once purchased at an Bruun Rasmussen auction. The bracelet is very well be from Dulong Fine Jewelry.

I guess you are interested in Princess Isabella's outfit as well her being the center of attention. The stunning Isabella wore a bright blue suit from Søren Le Schmidt and her mother's The Fold London blouse. She found great inspiration in her mother's closet because most of her accessories have been worn by Mary. Hair combs, earrings, ring, a bracelet and shoes.

Her sweet younger sister, Princess Josephine, looked amazing in a Harris Wharf London blouse and matching blazer and black trousers. Josephine styled her outfit with pearl earrings from Sophie Bille Brahe, her mother's Daisy brooch from Georg Jensen and a golden Maria Black ring.

New Year's reception at Christiansborg


07 January 2025

King Frederik and Queen Mary were driven from Amalienborg to Christiansborg in the historical Gold Coach escorted by the Guard Hussar Regiment's Mounted Squadron. 

They were about to host the very last New Year's reception for Officers from the Defence and the Danish Emergency Management Agency, national organisations and royal patronages.



Love that Mary is rewearing her old Jule Fagerholt creation. She first wore it in 2008 at another New Year's reception at Amalienborg. Back then it came with a different top and a jacket. Even thought it looks beautiful today I still misses the matching top and jacket.

The fine diamond brooch dates back to around 1840 - possibly made for Queen Josefina of Sweden. Her grand daughter Crown Princess Lovisa of Denmark inherited them. They are now part of the Danish Royal Property Trust stored at Rosenborg Castle in Copenhagen. 

The earrings comes with a history too. Read more about the earrings here. Apparently Mary chose to mix and match parts of two different earrings from the same parure.

She also styled her outfit with a beloved grey suede BOSS clutch and magnificent Gianvito Rossi pumps.

Holstebro's 750th anniversary


11 October 2024

King Frederik and Queen Mary were invited as guests of honor to attend Holstebro's 750th anniversary. During the past year, the city has celebrated the up coming anniversary with more 750 different events and todays gathering were the official celebration.

The royal couple were warmly welcomed by Mayor H.C. Østerby at the city hall. They enjoyed lunch at Restaurant JA - the city's old iron foundry. After a fine lunch, the King and Queen went for a walk down the streets of Holstebro. Right down to the Danish Talent Academy.



I have always been a huge fan of colored winter coats like the one Mary was wearing in Holstebro. Wanted one for years when a beloved friend of mine gifted me with a dark red wool-blend one. Wouldn't live without it in my wardrobe. Love wearing colors.

Mary looked absolutely stunning in her brand new orange coat from Max Mara. Can't wait for her to wear it again. She matched the beautiful coat with a reused printed Saloni dress. What is no to like about this combo?

She also accessorized the outfit with a magnificent hairband created by Jane Taylor. First worn in December 2019 an again in November 2022. Think Mary's is custom-made. Love that Mary styled the dress with matching suede Aquazzura boots and Hugo Boss clutch.

As jewellery, she had chosen shiny diamond earrings from Sophie Bille Brahe and a couple of rings from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen.

Day 2. Official state visit from Iceland


09 October 2024

Yesterday, the Icelandic President and her husband arrived in Copenhagen for a two-days official state visit. The King and Queen warmly welcomed the couple at Nordre Toldbod.

Today, the royal couple accompanied President Halla Tómasdóttir and husband Björn Skúlason for a visit at "State of Green" which is a private-public partnership between the Danish government, companies and actors within the energy sector. Among others, the Presidential couple also paid a visit at Copenhagen Business School and attended the conference "Iceland and Denmark's Path to Shared Success".

Laster on, the King and Queen attended a business conference at Danish Industry along with the Presidential couple.



I really hoped for something else but you never fail with a good old suit from Scanlan & Theodore and a plain white Hugo Boss blouse. Right? Mary wore the same combo when celebrating Queen Margrethe's 83rd birthday in April 2023 and at a state visit in Spain in 2023.

This time, Mary accessorized the dusty green suit with brand new white pearl earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry and a beautiful beaded brooch. I have never been able to identify the brooch. Maybe I will one day. Could it be a one-of-a-kind? It is a reuse such as the elegant diamond ring from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen.

The chic snake pumps are old ones from Gianvito Rossi. She wore the exact same pumps at the state visit in Spain last year. I never really understood the thing about snakeskin/python pumps, but Mary changed my mind.

Return event at the Northatlantic Brygge

Island's President Halla Tómasdóttir hosted a return event at the Northatlantic Brygge in Copenhagen. Usually, the royal couple host a dinner or banquet in honor of the visiting couple and they host a return event as a "thank you for your hospitality during our visit".

Princess Benedikte was also present at the event such as the Icelandic ambassador in Denmark Péter Ásgeirsson. 



Mary wore this suit back in 2015 when attending "World Cancer Day". I have thought about it for years, when she would wear it again. Today it happened! Back then I was not sure about it being a two-piece or a jumpsuit. I go with a jumpsuit. Seems most likely. The black belt is a reuse from Celine. At the arrival, Mary was wearing an old black Prada coat.

She embraced the style with ruby earrings and bracelet inherited from Queen Ingrid. Both are part of the Queen's ruby parure. I am sure you noticed her exclusive ruby ring. It belonged to Queen Alexandrine. She wore it as a brooch. Queen Alexandrine even wore it on her engagement photos (link below). Mary paired it with a diamond band from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen and a silver one from Dulong Fine Jewelry.

As with the jumpsuit, we haven't seen these black patent pumps from Gianvito Rossi for quite some years. Mary was very fund of these pumps years ago.

Opening of the Parliament 2024


01 October 2024

Princess Benedikte accompanied King Frederik and Queen Mary at the annual opening of the Parliament. The three of them were warmly welcomed by Parliament's presidum and of course Søren Gade - Chairman of the Parliament.

The annual opening ceremony at Christiansborg Castle in Copenhagen marks the begning of a new year for the Danish politicians and the Parliament. The opening always takes place on the first Tuesday in October.

King Frederik, Queen Mary and Princess Benedikte watched the official opening from the royal balcony in the great Parliament Hall. Amongst speakers was Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen.



Love that both Mary and Benedikte had the same though about wearing soft blue at the opening. Mary was dressed in a lovely reused coat tailored by Cleas Iversen along with a creamy white lace dress. Do you remember she also wore the coat at the opening in 2022? I think it could be an old Heartmade dress but I can't tell for sure.

Mary had chosen beige suede accessories: a beloved BOSS clutch, beautiful (new?) matching gloves and stunning pointed pumps from Gianvito Rossi. Kinda like this color-combo. Blue and beige. Very elegant. Looks like she added a splash of soft purple on her nails. I like that too.

What is an outfit without jewellery? Not much. Mary wore her amazing Halberstadt necklace with an Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen diamond ring. Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen is also the creator of her SMASHING golden leaf brooch. What a masterpiece!

Conference for health care nurses and presentation of the "Teaching Award 2024"


23 September 2024

On Monday, Queen Mary arrived at the Tivoli Hotel & Congress Center in Copenhagen to attended the opening of the conference for health care nurses along with the Mary Foundation. The Queen was welcomed by Susanne Rank Lücke, Chairman of the Professional Association for Health Care Nurses. She was accompanied by Helle Østergaard, Director of the Mary Foundation.

The conference takes place from September 23-24th and gather professionals from all over the country for an update on the health care system and to network through workshops along with presentations from prominent experts in their field. "Violence in the family" was the team of this years conference.

Queen Mary also attended the presentation of the "Teaching Award 2024". When arriving at the Opera, she was warmly welcomed by Minister of Education and Research Christina Egelund.

She was there to honor and congratulate this years 7 award winners, who represent each their profession/education. They receive the "Teaching Award" due to their innovative way of teaching by cases, roleplays and including professionals from businesses.



Mary looked super elegant in a reused outfit. Do you recall when she last wore this soft blue Victoria Beckham blouse and colorful printed Paul & Joe skirt? You are right! When King Harald and Queen Sonja of Norway visited Copenhagen in 2023. Actually, Mary also wore this exact combo at the inauguration of Herlev's new Emergency Room and Woman-Child Center in 2021.

This time at the conference and following presentation, she embraced the style by wearing old white South Sea pearl earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry and a matching custom-made bracelet, such as two golden bangles. She has been wearing these golden bracelets quite a few times lately and I still do not know anything about them. We also get a glimpse of her beloved diamond 'F'-necklace.

The stunning beige pointed pumps are Gianvito Rossi. Mary has worn these pumps at 34 (now 35) times since 2016! Her elegant red Hugo Boss handbag is rather new. It goes back to 2020. The chick glasses are from Gucci.

Day 7.

Official visit to Greenland


05 July 2024

Another day in Nuuk

The couple have accompanied each other the last week, but today they attended a few events on their own before hosting a reception onboard Dannebrog.

King Frederik visited school students who have participated in projects and competitions created by Kalaallit Nunaat - the Foundation for Entrepreneurship. He was given a guided tour around the school and introduced to some of the students ideas developed in relation with Kalaallit Nunaat.

Meanwhile, Queen Mary visited the institution Naasut. They work with the Mary Foundation's project 'Free Bullying'. The Greenlandic name is Kammagiitta. Head of Naasut Katherine Larsen Lennert talked about how they work with the project on a daily basis.



I do like a good tailored suit and Mary has so many beautiful sets. This one from SKALL Studio is not my favorite - simply because of its 80s oversize blazer. Nevertheless, I love how she matched it with a reused white BOSS blouse. Great choice. It soften the look a bit. The belt is Celine.

She embraced the outfit with elegant golden earrings and a bracelet from Dulong Fine Jewelry. Her two other golden bangles are still a true mystery to me. I think they are custom-made. The diamond necklace is Halberstadt. Look closer and you will see her Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen ring.

I am not able to tell the exact model but she is indeed wearing brand new suede Prada boots. To me they look chocolate-brown.

Arriving in Narsarsuaq

King Frederik and Queen Mary spend first half of their day in Nuuk and after hosting a reception at lunch time, they traveled to Narsarsuaq. The couple (and the twins) travel with Dannebrog. They arriving were captured in a few photos. Nothing fancy. Just the couple arriving in silence.

The photos gave us a glimpse of a wonderful traveling outfit. Mary wore a stunning new jacket from Meqqussalik and green Laksen trousers. Adore her natural look: soft curly hair, Gucci glasses and Penelope Chilvers boots. She was also seen wearing the trousers a couple of days ago when fishing in the Eternal Fjord.

Mary was also seen wearing a brand new bag. It has been identified as Palorosa. Never heard of the brand before but I really like this design.

Visiting Igaliku

When arriving in Narsarsuaq a little earlier it was also to visit the small 'bygd' (a village) Igaliku. The King and Queen will spend the night in Igaliku.

Igaliku is known as the village where the famous viking chief Erik the Red docked with his ship more than a thousand years ago. He settled in Greenland as was leader of the northerners.

King Frederik and Queen Mary also went for a walk at 'Kongevejen' (the kings road) named after Kind Frederik IX in 1952.



When visiting Igaliku, Mary had chosen to keep on her green Laksen trousers as when the couple arrived in Narsarsuaq. She matched it with her Laksen jacket and new Laksen checkered blouse. Mary, please wear this blouse again. Looks so good on you! Even Frederik wore a checkered blouse - and a jacket matching his wife.

She stayed warm by wearing a brown knitted beanie and scarf. I think the scarf is the one she received as a gift when visiting Greenland in 2004.

The suede boots are from Penelope Chilvers.

Day 6.

Official visit to Greenland


04 July 2024

A day in Nuuk

The royal family has already spend five days in Greenland and now the four of them have arrived in Nuuk. They were warmly welcomed when arriving with Dannebrog. The official welcoming was at the City Hall. Later, followed a guided tour at Nuuk's new school Atuarfik Inussuk.

Before visiting Nuuk's new airport, King Frederik and Queen Mary attended lunch with Naalakkersuisut - the Greenlandic Government and the Presidency of Inatsisartut.

Once again, Prince Vincent and Princess Josephine accompanied their parents.



Mary looked so elegant in her Greenlandic national costume. The colors are so vivid. I adore the combination of materials and colors. The fact that it is handmade makes it even more impressive. Mary was gifted the costume on her first official visit in Greenland in 2004.

On occasion of her 50th birthday, her costume was exhibited at Koldinghus in Kolding as part of the exhibition 'Mary and the Crown Princesses'. I visited the exhibition and the costume is even more beautiful in reality. Did you know that the costume also comes with a clutch and a matching brooch to the earrings?

She also wore the matching handbag, shoes and fine earrings. Such as a diamond ring from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen.

Nuuk's new airport

After a quick change of clothes, the four of them visited Nuuk's new airport. They were given a guided tour around the facilities. Maybe one day, they will land an airplane in the new airport?

King Frederik and Queen Mary also visited a workshop. The craftsmen are currently working on a memorial stone in honor of polar explorer Arnarulunnguaq. She was the only female polar explorer participating the world-famous fifth Thule expedition in 1921-1924.



I have absolutely nothing bag to say about her daytime outfit. Love every single part of it. The color-combo is splendid. That soft pink Hugo Boss silk satin blouse, elegant grey JOSEPH trousers and a matching suede Ralph Lauren belt. 

How often have you worn pink and grey? 10 points goes to Mary for this combo. She embraced the chic style by wearing a black midi wool-blend coat.

Mary had chosen the handbag matching her Greenlandic national costume. I LOVE THAT! What a gesture. The Rosequartz earrings are custom-made by Dulong Fine Jewelry. She has worn them on a number of occasions. My archive counts 58 events. Like in 2011, when the couple left Rigshospitalet with their newborn twins. Or presenting the 'Government's Integration Prize' in 2009.

The grey suede ankle boots are reused from Prada.

Official dinner at Katuaq

In the evening, King Frederik and Queen Mary attended Naalakkersuisut's official dinner at the Culture House Katuaq in Nuuk. The royal couple were invited as guests of honor.

The Chairman of Naalakkersuisut (the Greenlandic Government) Múte Bourup Egede welcomed the couple when they arrived to Katuaq.

King Frederik gave a speech at the evenings dinner:

"It is possible to fall in love with a people and a country?" - It is. I can confirm that. Greenland has a ver special meaning to my family and I. Queen Mary and I are therefor pleased to be here along with Prince Vincent Minik and Princess Josephine Ivalo."

Minik and Ivalo are the sibling's Greenlandic names.



Now we are talking. I am rarely disappointed with Mary's evening outfits but this one is simply exquisite! I learned from Royal Fashion Police that she wore a brand new Teri Jon by Rickie Freeman evening dress. The dress has been altered a bit. It got a smaller collar and a waist-band instead of a ribbon.

Do you like the alterations? - I am a huge fan.

Her stunning earrings and matching pendants are smashing creations by talented Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. Mary wore the earrings in 2022 when attending an official dinner on occasion of King Willlem-Alexander and Queen Maxima's visit in Denmark. We also get a glimpse of a reused diamond bracelet from Dulong Fine Jewelry.

The fine snakeskin box clutch is a Judith Leiber design - one of Mary's absolute favorite evening clutches and (of course) her magnificent golden leather pumps from Manolo Blahnik.

Official state visit to Sweden


07 May 2024

A day in Stockholm

From the morning, King Frederik accompanied King Carl Gustaf when visiting Stockholm's amphibious regiment. Among others, they were given a guided tour on HMS Helsingborg and had a chat with some of the Swedish regiments divers.

Around noon, Queen Mary and Queen Sonja visited the museum 'Prins Eugens Waldemarsudde'. Prince Eugen of Sweden was an artist and great art collector. After his death, his home was transformed to a museum.

The couple had lunch at Stockholm's Stadshus, followed by a visit at Forskaren (a new life science center in Sweden) and Nodriska Muséet. Crown Princess Victoria, Prince Daniel, Prince Carl Philip and Princess Sofia also attended the lunch at Stadshus.

My heart sings when Mary is wearing something red! The color looks amazing on her with her fair skin and dark brown hair. Birgit Hallstein tailored her dazzling bright red dress. The details are exquisite. Her light brown wool-blend cape from Oscar de la Renta was a perfect match.

Mary accessorized her beautiful outfit with plenty of jewellery: earrings, a brooch and a bracelet from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. Necklaces from Halberstadt and Julie Sandlau. Another bracelet from Dulong Fine Jewelry.

Anya Hindmarch is the designer of her brand new soft brown leather handbag. I am breathless. The shape. The color. Everything is outstanding about this new little bag. The same goes with the red suede Gianvito Rossi pumps.

The Swedish King and Queen then hosted a final gathering at Kungliga Slottet.



Mary was beautifully dressed in a reused printed Saloni dress and later a fine white JOSEPH coat. She wore the dress last year at the presentation of the annual Christmas Stamp in November. Stunning details!

She embraced the style with shimmery golden diamond earrings from Rebekka Notkin. Worn at a number of different occasions. On a business promotion visit in Norway, a state visit in South Korea and when attending the enthronement of Emperor Naruhito and Empress Masako in 2019.

Official boarding Dannebrog


02 May 2024

Boarding Dannebrog in Copenhagen

The King and Queen boarded the royal yacht Dannebrog at Nordre Toldbod today to official begin their summer tour around in Denmark. A tradition that goes back many years. The couple "inherited" the tradition from Queen Margrethe and Prince Henrik.

They take official residence in Kancellihuset at Fredensborg. Therefor, Dannebrog docked in Helsingør, where the royal couple were welcomed in the greatest way possible. King Frederik and Queen Mary will then be accompanying Queen Margrethe, whom has also taken residence at Fredensborg Castle.

This evening, the couple will be officially welcomed by citizens in Helsingør. This little 'welcoming ceremony' has been a tradition every single year to greet Queen Margrethe and late husband Prince Henrik when moving in at Fredensborg during summer time.

Queen Mary looked nothing less than absolutely stunning when boarding Dannebrog! The smashing Iris & Ink dress styled with a brand new belt, a custom-made ring from Dulong Fine Jewelry and beautiful navy blue leather pumps from Gianvito Rossi. Love her new headpiece created by Maggie Mowbray Millinery. Amazing details.

Official welcome at Fredensborg

This evening, the couple will be officially welcomed by citizens in Helsingør. This little 'welcoming ceremony' has been a tradition every single year to greet Queen Margrethe and late husband Prince Henrik when moving in at Fredensborg during summer time.

Shortly before the little welcoming ceremony, the Queen was spotted outside Kancellihuset.

What a magnificent outfit she wore at the official welcome ceremony at Fredensborg. Polished and yet casual. Once again, she wore her white Harris Wharf London blazer matched with an old BOSS blouse and black Forte Forte trousers. We get a glimpse of her Etro belt and a Halberstadt necklace. The fine ring white pearl ring is a custom-made creation from Dulong Fine Jewelry. Look closer and you will see her wearing trendy Malone Souliers heels.
