Visiting Sorglinjen

29 May

On Wednesday, Crown Princess Mary visited Sorglinjen. They advise people who have lost a related beloved family member. Around a hundred volunteers pick up calls every day to help people who  need someone to talk to about feelings, grief, ways to deal with their loss.

Sorglinjen is a project part of the organization Children, Youth & Grief and is by initiative of The National Grief Center. Crown Princess Mary visited Sorglinjen as patron of Children, Youth & Grief.

She was warmly welcomed at the arrival. The Crown Princess met some of the volunteers who told her about some experiences of theirs and how they use their own loss to help others. The Crown Princess even picked up a few calls herself. With great humility the she listened to everything she was told. Many years ago she lost her own mother. On several occasions she has talked about how it sometimes made her feel lonely. The family also recently lost a dear and beloved family member - Prince Henrik. Hopefully, they all have someone to talk to about the loss but that is not the case for everybody. Luckily we have people as those at Sorglinjen who take time to listen.




During the visit at Sorglinjen, Mary had chosen to wear a color combination of blue and black. You never go wrong with that combo. At the arrival she wore one of her old bright blue coats from Prada. She has a similar style coat (and designer) in creamy white as well. The blue one hasn't been worn that much. Only three time - four when including May 29th. First time it was worn, was in 2012 when the family attended a ballet in Tivoli, here. Then again a year later, here. Actually Mary wore the coat twice in 2013, here. Since then I don't think we have seen it.

The printed Proenza Shoulders blouse is also a reused piece. It goes back to 2017. Mary has worn it on several occasions. Last, when visiting Sorglinjen. She matched the blue blouse with black fitted trousers. The pumps with the chunky heels are from Jimmy Choo. I also catched a glimpse of her old nude Prada handbag. Getting to identify the jewellery was a bit more difficult. Looks like reused diamond earrings and a few rings that could be from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen, here. The two bracelets are from Dulong Fine Jewelry. All reuse.

A Mary Foundation meeting

Wednesday, May 31st

Crown Princess Mary attended a meeting between the Mary Foundation and leading professionals in a workshop about Greenland. The foundation has, since 2007, established a collaboration with Greenland and several projects has been developed and is now a great part of the Mary Foundation's work. More than once the Crown Princess has visited Greenland to see for herself how these projects are working; how to improve them and in which why they have been able to help. This and much more were discussed at the meeting on Wednesday, here. CEO of the Mary Foundation, Helle Østergaard also attend the meeting. The Crown Princess was dressed in a chic Proenza blouse, black trousers and her red Valentino pumps.

Presentation of scholarships at Hotel d'Angleterre

Tuesday, January 17th

Crown Princess Mary attended the presentation of the Heart Association and the Children Foundation's scholarships. The ceremony took place at Hotel d'Angleterre, Copenhagen. 


A day with the heart in focus. The Crown Princess had just been visiting Rigshospitalet where she was introduced the project Copenhagen Baby Heart, here.  As patron of both the Heart Association and the Children's Foundation she then attended the presentation of three research scholarships taking place at Hotel d'Angleterre. These were given to associate Professor and Chief Physician Kasper Iversen, Chief Physician Henrik Kjærulf and doctor and research associate Amalie Bøggild. Before the ceremony she got the change to meet some of the so called "heart-children", who are children born with a heart failure and their families. Mary took plenty of time to talk to the kids. They were having fun and I am pretty sure everyone had a great time. The kids seemed really seemed to enjoy some time along with the Crown Princess. 



Because the ceremony at Hotel d'Angleterre along with the Heart Association and the Children's Foundation was taking place right after she visited Rigshospitalet, not much had changed when it comes to her outfit. She was still wearing that incredibly beautiful new printed blouse from Proenza and that black 3/4 coat, rather long, and a pair of black trousers. Embracing the style, Mary accessorized the look with leather pumps from Gianvito Rossi and a matching suede Hugo Boss clutch. When it comes to jewellery we have a pair of diamond earrings and a stunning diamond brooch which are told to be from Prince Henrik's mother. But as I have said before, it has not been confirmed. With fair skin, natural makeup and feminine curly hair Mary amazed me as always.

Copenhagen Baby Heart

Tuesday, January 17th

Crown Princess Mary visited the research project Copenhagen Baby Heart at Rigshospitalet, Copenhagen. 


It was as patron of the Heart Association Crown Princess Mary visited Rigshospitalet on occasion of the new research project called Copenhagen Baby Heart. Parents are offered a heart scan of their newborn before the end of two weeks after the birth if they live in Copenhagen. The purpose of the project is to see if it is possible to track down heart defects in time and gather knowledge about child development. By visiting Rigshospitalet Mary had the opportunity to see for herself how the project is working in reality because she watched a heart scan of a newborn. With four children I think she knows exactly how important such a project like this can be for a child's life. The Crown Princess followed closely everything that was going on around her and also asked lots of questions along the way. Passioned as always. 


Though the weather is nothing special really, Mary turned a cloudy and rainy into a bright and sunny day with her outfit! Despite the lack of colours I think it looks incredible; chic and modern. A bit minimalistic. So, what she did was combining a new printed blouse with a pair of black trousers. Actually very simple. Immediately I was drawn to her blouse, looks very interesting. I have not been able to find it on my own -I had some help with this one. I tried 10 or more different designers, but non of them was the one I was looking for. Then yesterday I received an email from the most lovely lady, sharing her possible findings on Mary's new blouse. I am in no doubt that she has found the right one at Proenza. A designer I think we have now seen for the first time. Believe she used the scarf as a belt, what a clever idea! Neither do I think we have seen that 3/4 sleeve jacket before. Or have I just forgotten? Love how the blouse sleeves are longer than the jacket. Makes a great detail. Another really beautiful detail is her diamond brooch, perfectly matching the earrings. The brooch are told to be a gift from her father-in-low and belonged to his mother, but it's only rumors. About the earrings, then I have never heart anything. What I know is that she also wore the day Princess Isabella was christened, here. Embracing the simple and minimalistic style she was wearing her brown pumps from Gianvito Rossi. I'm totally in love with her curly hair; looks so feminine and beautifully framing her face.
