Day 2. Official State Visit to Australia

March 15, 2026

Sunset over Uluṟu

The royal couple started their day by visiting Muṯitjulu Waterhole in Uluṟu to watch the beautiful sunset. A personal guide shared the experience with King Frederik and Queen Mary while sharing informations and stories from the area.

In the morning hours the couple looked liked any other tourists admiring the sunset. The King flashed an army printed hat, hiking boots and a back pack with (supposedly) supplies for the walk. His wife matched his style with perfection: a messy knot in a cap, linen shorts and practical walking boots.

I love their "undercover" outfits!

Arriving in Canberra

King Frederik and Queen Mary then arrived in Canberra. They were warmly welcomed at the Government House by Sam Mostyn, the Governor-General of Australia and spouse Simeon Beckett. As part of the welcoming, the couple participated a traditional some ceremony.

I was in love with the couple when they visited the Muṯitjulu Waterhole in Uluṟu. They blended in like it was the most easy thing in the world - if it wasn't for the many photographers and journalists...

When arriving in Canberra, Mary had changed to one of her stunning floral printed dressed in Zimmermann. It is not my favorite dress though I adore the bright color! Because of the smashing color and I think it is great that she chose rather neutral Gianvito Rossi pumps.

Like the woman performing the smoke ceremony, Mary was too beautifully bejewelled wearing jewellery from both Rebekka Notkin, Orit Elhanati, Dulong Fine Jewelry and Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. Some of the finest jewellery designers were have in Denmark.

Official welcoming ceremony in Canberra

King Frederik and Queen Mary were also welcomed in Canberra with at an official ceremony at the Government House. The gathering were hosted by the Governor-General of Australia Sam Mostyn and her spouse Simeon Beckett.

A second welcoming ment a second (or third) outfit suited for the occasion. Mary had chosen a brand new floral printed set from Claes Iversen. It's a couture design from 2016 which tells us that fashion never goes out of style.

The weather was wonderful. Warm and sunny. Mary's color-palette was really well-chosen. The dusty blue head piece matched both the reused LIN8 clutch and the blue sky. Her summery look was topped of with beige pointed leather from Prada.

Gala dinner at the Government House

It has already been a fantastic day. We are so spoiled. Just look at all those incredible outfits. Can it get any better? Apparently, yes. 

In the evening, the Governor-General of Australia Sam Mostyn and spouse Simeon Beckett hosted a gala dinner at the Government House in honor of the King and Queen's visit. Both King Frederik and Sam Mostyn gave a speech at the dinner.

Mary truly looked like a star on a starry night. Her amazing evening gown is a reused and altered Jesper Høvring creation. It goes back to the wedding of Crown Princess Victoria and Daniel Westling in 2010. I am truly a fan of the original design but I the added golden top/sleeve. Makes it even more glamorous.

Like it wasn't enough: she wore stunning jewellery from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen and a fine bracelet that once belonged to Crown Princess Lovisa.

Day 1. Opening of Grand Egyptian Museum

November 01, 2025

Amongst King's and Queen's from all over the world we are to find our beloved Queen Mary. They were all gathered in Egypt to the opening of Grand Egyptian Museum in Cairo.

The Queen will be staying the Egypt for two days. She is accompanied by Danish Minister of Foreign Affairs Lars Løkke Rasmussen - former Primeminister. They joined each other at a reception hosted by the Danish Embassy in Egypt prior to the grand opening.

I am in love with Mary's white lace set! Indeed it looks as a dress but in fact it is a blouse and skirt identified as Zimmermann. Think I love everything about it. Made her stand out of the crowd like a white star on the massive stage. Never thought we would see Mary wear such heels from Jimmy Choo but I kinda like it. Looks great with the white laces.

Mary embraced the style with beautiful diamond earrings purchased at an Bruun Rasmussen auction. She first wore them in 2017 when celebrating King Harald and Queen Sonja's 80th birthday. We loved them ever since. The same goes with the stunning diamond cuff's created by Annikat. 

Of course we all noticed her huge blue aquamarine ring. The story goes that it is a present from her husband. Fashionable as she is Mary wisely chose a matching dusty blue clutch from LIN8. One we haven't seen in years.

Day 1. Official state visit from France

August, Tuesday 28th

For four days we enjoyed an official visit to the Faroe Islands along with the entire Crown Prince family. We followed each step and enjoyed each one of them. It was a pleasure sharing all this with you. The visit was something we had been looking forward to in a very long time. Suddenly it was all over. Fortunately we did not have to wait long for another exciting event. Because on August 28th the Queen hosted an official state visit from France.

The French Presidential couple arrived to Copenhagen airport in the morning on Tuesday 28th. They were warmly welcomed by the Crown Prince couple at Kastellet in Copenhagen. Both couple's showed their respect to missing and/or lost soldiers with a wreath. Following the Presidential couple was officially welcomed by Queen Margrethe at Amalienborg. The Crown Prince couple, Prince Joachim, Princess Marie and Princess Benedikte did also attend the welcoming ceremony.

Mrs Macron was then invited to attend a lunch with the Crown Princess at Frederik VIIIs Palace at Amalienborg. The two of them met earlier in 2017 to discuss equality in Denmark and a future meeting was settled. Once again the topic about equality was brought up. On this occasion the Crown Princess had specially invited four other guests to attend the lunch - four guest with the purpose to enlighten about equality issues, a status and - challenges.

Crown Princess Mary and Mrs Macron also had the pleasure to join each other for yet another visit. The two of them visited the Design School at Holmen in Copenhagen. They were given a guided tour around the facilities, was introduced to the school and their work. Especially sustainability and sustainable fashion solution are something the schools students work with in their everday's.

Meanwhile the French President met with Prime Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen, visited the Royal Library and the Black Diamond. He also joined Crown Prince Frederik for a boat trip in Copenhagen Harbor.

Apparently the Crown Princess had a meeting with Amina Mohammed, UN Deputy Secretary General on Tuesday as well, here. Amina Mohammed is former special advisor to Ban Ki-moon. UN's 17 world goals - in particular goal number five about equality, was discussed during the meeting that took place at Amalienborg in Copenhagen. The conversation between was also focused on women-and girls rights and opportunities.

Mary was shining like a red rose when welcoming the French Presidential couple at Kastellet in Copenhagen. Somehow I expected something completely else. That is what make Mary and her style so exciting - you never know what she is going to wear. She had chosen a bright red dress tailored by Birgit Hallstein.

The Danish Crown Princess was not the only one embracing a red outfit. Mrs Macron shone wearing a matching red dress and coat. Meanwhile Princess Marie wore a red long-sleeved red blouse and a black skirt.

She accessorized her new Birgit Hallstein dress with diamond earrings from Ole Lynggaard worn a several other occasion. The same goes with the beautiful leaf Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen brooch. Her two golden bracelets are from Cartier and Dulong Fine Jewelry. As shoes she had chosen an old pair of python pumps from Gianvito Rossi. Incredible match to the red dress, right? Another interesting accessory is the brand new bright red clutch bag. I had a Danish designer in mind when Kate share her finding with me. She managed to identify Mary's new clutch bag as LIN8. I am simply in love with this creation.

With a magnificent hairstyle, beautiful makeup and red nail polish, she managed to amaze me deeply. Mary really knows how to make a great impression.

- Gala dinner -

With Queen Margrethe as host of this official state visit from the French Presidential couple, she also hosted a gala dinner in the evening. Guests from both Danish and French public were invited to attend the dinner, which took place in the Banquet Hall at Christiansborg castle in Copenhagen. The arrival and part of the dinner was broadcasted live on Danish television. I watched only the arrival but it was an incredible sight. Princess Benedikte arrived first from the royal family, followed by Prince Joachim and Princess Marie, then the Crown Prince couple and Queen Margrethe. The French Presidential couple arrived last. Especially the arrival of the Crown Prince couple amazed me. It always look so gracious.

All guests were then greeted with a handshake and the evening was about to begin. As host the Queen gave a welcoming speech which can be watched down below. The French President followed her with his own speech. Dinner was then serviced. I imagine it being a wonderful evening for all attending the event.

By the commentators many blue dresses were predicted. That is why I hoped for anything else than a blue dress for Mary or any of the other Danish royal women. And we got... no blue gowns at all. Queen Margrethe stunned in a purple gown featuring black lace. Princess Marie wore what I think is a brand new gown with a wide neckline and little train. I hear that her tiara is new and presumably a gift from her husband on occasion of their 10th anniversary. Princess Benedikte impressed in a lovely dusty pink floral evening gown.

What's then about Mary? As the only royal woman wearing white, she showed up in a reused Lasse Spangenberg Copenhagen evening gown. Yet with few altercations. A black piece of fabric has been added across her right shoulder. It then works as a short train. I will leave the commenting about this alterting to you. Mary wore this floral gown at the celebration of the 10th anniversary of the Mary Foundation, here.

She embraced the evening outfit with a black Sergio Rossi box clutch and black pumps from Gianvito Rossi. Other than this I see her wearing the incredible ruby parure inherited from Queen Ingrid. She wore both tiara, earrings, bracelet and a single hairpiece. If any of you manage to find a picture of her hairstyle, please share it with me. I would really like to get a better look of her stunning hairstyle.

Crown Prince Frederik & Crown Princess Mary arriving to Dannebrog

I know the couples visit to Stockholm, Sweden, has already ended but for me it is also time to share all the great pictures etc with you my wonderful readers. For quite some time I have been looking very much forward to this official visit though Frederik and Mary were only going to Sweden -which lies just across the bridge. It had been announced that the Crown Prince couple would be accompanied by Crown Princess Victoria and her husband Prince Daniel while staying in Stockholm; news that really made me happy. It came as a surprise to me that the couple were staying at the Danish royal yacht Dannebrog during their visit, something that had not even crossed my mind as an opportunity. I managed to figure out that the Crown Prince couple arrived on Sunday, May 28th, they day before the official visit was about to take place. In the evening Crown Princess Victoria, Prince Daniel and Prince Carl Philip were invited to dinner at Dannebrog which were hosted by the Danish royal couple.

Arriving to Dannebrog Mary showed of in a pair of brand new trousers. In a way I can't decide whether or not I absolutely love then or dislike them. The colour is what bothers me most. But somehow she makes them look stunning with her old brown suede Prada jacket and a (new?) white blouse. Still no idea where to find these new trousers. I am very open minded to her your suggestions. To you how do not remember having seen the jacket before then I have found this, here. It goes way longer back in time which is also the reason why I haven't been able to find it online. She embrace a casual style by wearing her Dolce & Gabbana sunglasses, a bag from Prada and a couple of jewellery from both Dulong Fine Jewelry and Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. She also wore her Christian Louboutin snake pumps.

Crown Prince Frederik & Crown Princess Mary hosted a dinner in Stockholm, Sweden

As mentioned before, then the Crown Prince couple arrived on Sunday May 28th to Dannebrog docked in Skeppsbron, Stockholm. Think they arrived around noon and in the evening the couple hosted a private dinner on board Dannebrog. Crown Princess Victoria, her husband Prince Daniel and her younger brother Prince Carl Philip were all invited to attend the dinner. Victoria and Daniel are also present at several events during the Danish Crown Prince couples visit in Stockholm. I learned about this dinner because of a post on the royal family's Facebook, which you see below. think it's amazing to get a photo like this though it is a private and unofficial dinner, don't you think?

So only one photo often makes things a bit harder when I need to identify what Mary is wearing. This time I'm not the lucky one identifying what Mary wore during the dinner on board Dannebrog the day before the official visit to Sweden was about to start. Heaven is who told me about Mary's new dress. The dress is by no doubt a new piece she added to her wardrobe and thanks to Heaven we now know is it from MARCH11. What I know, we have never seen her wear anything from this designer till now. It features some incredible embroidery on each sleeve which you can't see on this photo. Searching for more pictures of the dress I learned that it comes in two different lengths. So far I haven't been able to tell which one it is she's wearing. My guess = mini version.

So, now to the official part of the program. Crown Prince Frederik and his wife Crown Princess Mary are visiting Stockholm, Sweden from May 29-30th accompanied by more than 60 Danish companies. The visit focuses on intelligent healthcare, sustainable cities and modern lifestyle; all entitled Liveable Scandinavia. During their first day they had plenty of places to be, plenty of people to meet and things to see. I will not comment on each and everyone of them. Instead I think you should take a look at their program as shown above, beginning this post. All along it has been announced that Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel of Sweden would join they couple and they did. Wonderful to see all four of them together, having a great time! Because I really think they enjoyed each others company. Prince Daniel joined Mary a couple of times and Crown princess Victoria visited places with Frederik. As well as they joined several events together. I am in no doubt that all of them had a great time on the Danish couples first day in Stockholm. Also to mention, is that Minister of Foreign Affairs anders Samuelsen and Minister of Environment and Food Esben Lunde Larsen accompanied the Crown Prince couple while staying in Sweden.

Funny thing: all four of them wore a suit during the first day of the couples visit. Though it was in different colours, silhouettes and materials. Mary was the only one in plain white -or maybe it's even more ivory. I have heard so many positive comments about her new suit and I love it too! Love how it moves, if that even makes sense. In a way I keep thinking of the swinging 20s. Differently new and Jennifer has been so kind to share her findings with me. Because she actually found out that Mary's new suit is from Max Mara (SS17). She impressed by wearing both a brooch and two rings from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. And a pair of diamond earrings which could be from Hartmann's. She embraced the style by wearing her beige Naledi Copenhagen clutch featuring on incredible design, colour, shape and size. We have seen it on several different occasions. The same goes with the pumps. It took quite some time to identify their identity, though she has been wearing them at many occasions. We now know they are from Gianvito Rossi. So, tell me what impressed you most about her white dreamy outfit?

Crown Prince Frederik & Crown Princess Mary attending dinner

It had been a long day for the Crown Prince couple but no day ends better than with an official dinner. Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary were invited as guests of honor to attend a dinner in the evening accompanied by Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel of Sweden. The two couple's attended the dinner along with 300 special invited guests, who arrived in large busses. It all took place at Eric Ericssonhallen near Skeppsholmen where Dannebrog is docked. The Danish and Swedish royal couple's arrived all at once in the same car which was decorated with the two national flags -one blue and yellow, the other red and white. They all seemed to be in a splendid mood at the arrival when standing on the red carpet. I have only found very few pictures from inside when the dinner took place. But from what I have seen, all of four of them are having a great time. A perfect way to end a wonderful day.

Can't say that I was surprised to see what Mary was wearing at the dinner because I had no idea what to expect from her, other than something super stylish and elegant. And that we got! She was dressed in the most magnificent blue lace dress found at Dolce & Gabbana. Kate is the one who told me about the identification. Can't really tell why anyone would dislike this beautiful dress. It looks great on her and the colour next to Mary's dark hair is splendid. She embrace a romantic outfit by wearing silver glitter pumps from Gianvito Rossi, matching Dulong Fine Jewelry earrings, a golden Cartier bracelet and a brand new blue clutch. After a long time being unidentified, the clutch has finally been found at the Australian designer LIN8. She also wore a aquamarine blue bracelet, a white shawl and more interesting some kind of silver hairpiece. I've got an idea because I think we have seen it ones before only a couple of weeks ago. Think we saw it when she attended a gala dinner in Norway on occasion of King Harald and Queen Sonja's 80th birthday, here.
