Crown Prince Frederik & Crown Princess Mary during their first day in Qatar
The day before yesterday was very busy for the couple. Around 8 pm. the couple attended a reception at the Danish Embassy in Saudi Arabia and traveled to Qatar later that evening. With another long day ahead in Qatar, the Crown Prince first visited the Maersk Oil's headquarter, where they among others were introduced to
the One Collaborative Working Environment project. As the royal couple caught everybody's attention at Maersk headquarter, they were the center of attention, when they visited
Aspire Academy in Doho -the capital of Qatar.
Aspire Academy is one of the world's leading sports academies for children and young people with every facility needed to develop skills no matter what sport you engage. The atmosphere was relaxed and journalists noticed how well the couple blended in among the players. I had the feeling that the couple really enjoyed their time playing some football. Former football player Ebbe Sand met the royal couple and was truly impressed.
Finally we see something else than black trousers. I already have explained everything there is to say about black trousers about now, so I really made me trilled to see another pair of trousers, which at the same time is new. Late last night I received a few bad quality pictures from their visit at
the Aspire Academy in Doho and at first I thought we had seen this pair of trousers before, at the opening of the Copenhagen Fashion Week last month. That was all wrong, except that the two of them are from same designer
Julie Fagerholt Heartmade. Kate found the model. Matched with the other pieces she looked smashing. It has been told that her vest is from Zara. I will make it completely clear, once and for all, it is from Danish designer
2nd Day. Think the reason why some of you still believe in Zara, is because that was what I first posted when she wore it at a
Free of bullying Seminar in October last year,
here. Then we have a new powder pink blouse. Looks to me like some kind of soft silk blouse featuring lovely details as fabric-covered buttons and pleating around the neck. Can't find it. To match the navy blue sleeveless blazer, Mary chose her blue
Quidam clutch and suede pumps from
Pura Lopez. I also see a pink ring on her right hand. Think it is new as well. Some of these accessories really trouble me. With a half updo, a magnificent pink lips gloss and diamond earrings from
Hartmann'd I really liked how she played with different colours, length and shapes.
Crown Prince Frederik & Crown Princess Mary visiting the Doho Museum of Islamic Art and a following dinner
It was a beautiful evening in Qatar, when the royal couple arrived to Doho Museum of Islamic Art, where they were warmly welcomed by Sheikha Al-Mayassa Al-Thani. They were given a guided tour to see the incredible exhibition and guided by the museums culture expert, who told about all the treasures. They both showed interest in many of these magnificent cultural treasures that shows a great part of Islamic history. I believe it was a really beautiful experience for the couple, who after the guided tour, crossed the bridge inside the museum to host a dinner only for special invited guests. Every guest invited, were welcomed by the Crown Prince couple with a handshake and a few words. I feel that there was a sincere respect between the royal couple and their guest. Because this is the last evening in Qatar, before the are going home to Denmark again, the evening was celebrated a proper way.
What an outfit. A symphony a colours. Mary is truly a master of colours and knows how to wear them with perfectly. Think the skirt is what we all noticed first. Never thought we would see her wear anything like this, but when I think about it; why not? Always exciting to see her outfits. Would really like to hear your thoughts, because this is a piece you either love or hate. Personally, I can't wait to see it again. The new skirt was identified by Kate as
PLEIN SUD. She embraced the style by wearing a black blouse featuring details I didn't see at first glance. Turns out, it's lace. Some of my royal fellows suggested Dolce & Gabbana as a possible designer for the blouse. Still, think it is a possibility but I can't tell for sure.
Accessory talk. The Gianvito Rossi shoes matched the blouse perfectly, such as the pink Carlend Copenhagen clutch. As a master of colours, Mary is a also master of choosing the right jewellery. This time she dazzled wearing Annikat earrings, a Georg Jensen bracelet and diamond rings from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. Love the combo of pink lipgloss and blue earrings. One last thing to mention is the hairstyle. It is simply stunning.
