Day 1. Official State visit to Latvia

October 28, 2025

Official welcoming ceremony

King Frederik and Queen Mary have arrived in Riga Latvia. The state visit marks the beginning of the Royal Couple's travels to the three Baltic countries and focuses on the close cooperation between Denmark and Latvia in culture, security and common European values. The visit will last from October 28th to 29th.

Latvian President Edgars Rinkēvičs welcomed the couple to Riga Castle where the official welcoming ceremony took place. The King and Queen also had the opportunity to meet with the Danish and Latvian delegations.

The couple also visited with Moment of Liberty, the Latvian Occupation Museum and participated a guided tour in Riga's Art Nouveau district.

Mary looked absolutely stunning in her navy blue coat. It was created by talented Danish designer Søren Le Schmidt. Mary first wore the coat at the 80th anniversary of Denmark's liberation in May. Later that month she wore it celebrating her husband's birthday. In Latvia she had chosen to add a Max Mara belt which I kinda like but it makes her look a bit too thin.

The sunning headpiece matched the coat beautifully. Milliner Katrin Cecilia Jacobsen created this incredible piece of headwear. Amazing work.

She accessorized the outfit with exclusive pearl earrings and a matching brooch. Both pieces are part of the Danish Pearl Poiré Parure. The set also comes with another brooch, a necklace and a tiara. The custom-made pearl ring made by Dulong Fine Jewelry was a great addition to the old inherited jewellery.

Her fine leather clutch is a reuse from Quidam. When they arrived in Riga Mary wore polished Prada pumps. Later, she changed to a pair of black Gianvito Rossi boots and a black woolen coat. The paisley scarf is also a reuse.

Evening banquet

President Edgars Rinkēvičs hosted an evening banquet at Riga Castle with King Frederik and Queen Mary as guests of honor. The King gave a speech prior to the dinner being service.

The King was awarded the Grand Cross of the Order of the Three Stars - Latvia's highest military order. The Queen received the Grand Cross of the Order of the Three Stars. The President was awarded the Order of the Elephant - Denmark's finest order.

Mary first wore the incredible red gown at the New Year's Eve Banquet in January 2018. It is tailored by Søren Le Schmidt. I love when she is wearing bright colors. Looks great with her brown hair and fair skin. Somehow I think she gown looks better with a full up-do. Can't really tell why but I think it suits the gown better. What are your thoughts?

She styled the smashing silk gown with a tiara purchased at an Bruun Rasmussen auction back in 2015. It can be worn both as a tiara and a necklace. The earrings have never been identified but she has worn them numerous times as a set to the tiara.

Her golden bracelet once belonged to Queen Louise. It was her engagement bracelet. I am so sure Mary's huge diamond ring is the same one Queen Margrethe wore on her first official portrait as Queen of Denmark in 1972.

Looks like Mary's pumps are the same colors as her gown. Either in suede or silk. The bordeaux clutch is a reuse from Sergio Rossi.

The King's 57th birthday!

May 26, 2025

King Frederik celebrated his 57th birthday with his family at Frederik VIII's Palace at Amalienborg. He, his wife, four children and mother showed at the balcony around noon. King Frederik was congratulated by hundreds of Danes from Amalienborg square.

I am aware that Princess Isabella and her younger sister Princess Josephine have become quite an interest to many of you. So I decided to share my knowledge about their outfits as well. Princess Isabella looked amazing in a bright orange suit from Harris Wharf London and her mother's Prada blouse. She embraced the outfit with Aquamarine earrings, a golden Dulong Fine Jewelry necklace and brown suede Gianvito Rossi pumps.

Princess Josephine wore the most wonderful printed blouse from Zimmermann and simple white trousers. Very similar to the outfit her mother wore at the presentation of the National Teaching Award in 2023. The princess accessorized her look with golden jewellery from, among others, Dulong Fine Jewelry and cool black sling-back flats.

Mary had chosen a stunning navy blue dress created by Danish designer Søren Le Schmidt. He is indeed a talented tailor. The details are magnificent! Not quite sure I like the added Prada belt but I like the idea of something that emphasis her waist. Her dazzling diamond earrings are once purchased at an Bruun Rasmussen auction. The brooch is a masterpiece by Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. We also get a glimpse of python pumps from Gianvito Rossi.

80th anniversary of Denmark's liberation

04 May 2025

This year we mark the 80th anniversary of Denmark's liberation. King Frederik and Queen Mary attended a church service along with Queen Margrethe and Princess Benedikte at Vor Frue Church in Copenhagen on the occasion of the anniversary.

The four of them also attended a memorial service at Mindelunden at Ryvangen in Hellerup.

Both Queen Mary, Queen Margrethe and King Frederik had chosen to wear similar blue coloured outfits. Princess Benedikte was the only one wearing another colour: a beautiful and bright purple.

Mary was wearing a brand new bespoke dress by Danish designer Søren Le Schmidt. It is similar to the purple one worn at the coronation of King Charles and Queen Camilla in 2023. She matched the stunning blue dress with an elegant new headband created by talented milliner Katrin Cecilie Jacobsen. A new favourite of hers?

I'm really interested in learning more about her diamond earrings but for now they are unidentified. The incredible diamond and pearl brooch is part of the Danish Pearl Poiré Parure. Dulong Fine Jewelry mastered the white pearl ring. The navy blue clutch is from Carlend Copenhagen.

At the church service at Vor Frue Church Mary wore a pair of beige pointed python pumps from Gianvito Rossi. Later on she changed to a pair of new suede heeled boots also from Gianvito Rossi.

Exhibition about Countess Danner

28 April 2025

Queen Mary will attend the official opening of a new exhibition of Countess Danner within a couple of days on April 30th.

On that occasion the Queen has agreed to participated in a small interview casted at the exhibition about the Countess and her life based on the Countess' personal and historical belongings.

Queen Mary visited the exhibition herself on April 28th prior to the grand opening.

The exhibition is open for the public at Frederiksborg from May 1st to November 16th 2025.

Mary first wore the bespoke coat at Flag Day in 2020. It is created by Danish designer Søren Le Schmidt. The sculptures details are simple exquisite! She honored the designer by wearing his creation on the day of Crown Prince Christian's 18th birthday in 2023. When visiting Frederiksborg she also wore a fine beige wool cape. It is a reuse but I have never been able to identify it.

She also embraced the style of her beautiful coat with her beloved blue Connaught Sapphire Brooch with diamonds and white pearls. A stunning match with the diamond earrings and Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen rings. Her nude python pumps are from Gianvito Rossi.

New official portraits!

In April, the royal court released new official gala portraits of the King and Queen. Now, the court also released three new civil photos of the couple!

Photographer Steen Evald captured the moment at Frederik VIII's Palace at Amalienborg.

From now on, the photos will be used in relation to official state visits, travels, special occasions and for the couple's protections.

Queen Mary wore a stunning bespoke dress by Søren Le Schmidt. The exact same dress as for the proclamation in April. Styled with stunning diamond earrings purchased at an Bruun Rasmussen auction and her elegant Halberstadt necklace.

Day 1. Official state visit from Iceland

08 October 2024

Welcoming

Queen Mary just arrived home from a four-days visit to Brazil. A couple of days later, her and King Frederik are hosting an official state visit from Iceland's President Halla Tómasdóttir and her husband Björn Skúlason. They will stay in Denmark from October 8-9th.

King Frederik and Queen Mary welcomed the President and Björn Skúlason at the harbor of Nordre Toldbod in Copenhagen. The four of them accompanied each other for a visit at Kastellet - a war memorial. The honored soldiers and their families with a wreath.

Before visiting the Icelandic cultural center Jónshús in Copenhagen, the couple were officially welcomed at Amalienborg. In the afternoon, the royal couple and the Presidentail couple visited the Arnamagnean Collection at University of Copenhagen.

Mary looked absolutely splendid when welcoming Iceland's President Halla Tómasdóttir and her husband Björn Skúlason. She wore a reused purple dress created by Danish designer Søren Le Schmidt. The details are magnificent! Mary first wore this stunning dress in 2023 when attending the coronation of King Charles III and Queen Camilla. Back then, she styled the dress with a custom-made headpiece from Jane Taylor. On October 8th, she wore the same piece but without the vail.

Somehow, her fine little Amethyst necklace caught all the attention. I get it. The necklace is indeed beautiful and we haven't seen it for many years. Yes, she has worn it before. Mary first wore the Hugo Grun necklace when honored being new patron of the Kidney Association in June 2005. Then again in October 2005. She even wore it for official photos when Crown Prince Christian was born. Last but not least, Mary wore the necklace in 2009.

Mary also embraced the outfit with a lovely Carlend Copenhagen clutch and dusty rose patent pumps from Gianvito Rossi.

Banquet at Amalienborg

In the evening, the royal couple hosted a banquet in honor of the Icelandic Presidential couple visiting Denmark. The dinner took place at Christiansborg Castle. 

Princess Benedikte also attended the prestiges banquet such as members of the Danish Government, representatives from Danish and Icelandic businesses, culture and sports. The Icelandic business delegation and representatives from the Danish court were also invited.

Both President Halla Tómasdóttir and King Frederik gave a speech at the banquet.

I like the idea of mixing and matching, new and old. Adore the midnight blue outfit and shiny diamond jewellery. Somehow, I'm still a bit confused. Both the Jesper Høvring top and ruffle Oscar de la Renta skirt are outstanding but I'm not in love with the combo. What was your first reaction? I'd really like to hear you out on this one.

Mary beautifully accessorized her evening outfit with the Danish Pearl Poiré Parure previously worn by Queen Margrethe. The Court Jeweller has this great article about the parure if you would like to know a bit more about the history of the tiara. Mary also wore stunning diamond earrings previously owned by Anne of Orange and the smashing Rivière diamond necklace.

She matched the look with an old satin box clutch from Prada and suede pumps from Jimmy Choo.

Celebration service in Aarhus

21 January 2024

It was simply wonderful to see the entire family gathered in Aarhus, when attending a celebration service in Aarhus Cathedral on Sunday (here). This was King Frederik and Queen Mary's second appliance as King and Queen since the proclamation on January 14th.

Queen Margrethe and Princess Benedikte also attended the celebration service along with representatives from the official Denmark and from Aarhus city.

The church service was led by royal Confessor and Bishop of Aarhus Diocese, Henrik Wigh-Poulsen.

Finally, something purple! I had high hopes that she would had been wearing either blue or purple for the proclamation. I didn't get that. But now I did. Mary looked absolutely stunning and elegant when attending the celebration service in Aarhus. The reused bespoke Søren Le Schmidt dress is incredible. The details are outstanding. She first wore it at the coronation of King Charles III and Queen Camilla of Great Britain in 2023 (here).

Mary embraced the style with a purple felt hat from Jane Taylor. Also worn before (here, here). Somehow, I'd wished that she would have chosen another color than navy blue for the purple outfit. Still, I am intrigued by the match. Shawl, gloves, Quidam clutch and Jimmy Choo pointed pumps.

Her beautiful diamond earrings were once purchased at a Bruun Rasmussen auction. Maybe you recognize that fine brooch. It was a wedding gift from Prince Henrik. It belonged to his late mother.

Halberstadt and Julie Sandlau created her amazing necklaces. The symbolism is spot on for this event.

Proclamation of King Frederik X.

14 January 2024

When Queen Margrethe announced her abdication at her New Year's Eve speech on 31st December 2023, the world gasped. No one had ever thought this would happened. The Queen always stated that she would stay on the throne till the day she died. In her speech, she argued that a previous operation made her think. Think about the future. That was when she decided to hand over the throne to her oldest son Crown Prince Frederik.

The proclamation would take place on January 14th 2024. That is today! Never had I thought in a million years, I would live to see the Crown Prince Couple become King and Queen. But I did.

In my previous entry, I posted about today's program (here). From the carriage ride to the change of royal flags to the private and the official proclamation.

It was a magical moment, when Frederik stepped out on the balcony at Christiansborg. Now as King Frederik X. of Denmark. The Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen announced the proclamation (here).

The new King also gave a short speech (here). He honored his mother's work throughout 52 years as Queen and mother. Humble, he proclaimed his responsibility with respect, pride and joy.

It was a remarkable moment to watch the two of them on the balcony. The Queen was so proud of her husband and the King cried of the overwhelmingly amount of support he was given by the Danes.

King Frederik X. and Queen Mary of Denmark

"A big moment - seen from behind"

Seriously, what to expect for a day like this. What did you have in mind for her outfit? I was sure we would see her in a brand new dress, but somehow I thought she'd be wearing something blue or purple. But no. Our new Queen, wore a new white bespoke crepe-dress designed by Søren Le Schmidt and tailored by Birgit Hallstein - who also made her wedding gown in 2004. Two memorable white dresses.

Mary chose to wear parts of Queen Ingrid's Ruby Parure. A wonderful gesture both to Queen Ingrid but also her husband who had a very close relationship to his grandmother. She wore: the hairpins, earrings and the outstanding brooch. Such as the custom-made ruby ring by Dulong Fine Jewelry.

We also get a glimpse of her beloved necklaces from Halberstadt and Julie Sandlau.

Her elegant nude patent leather pumps are reused ones from Prada.

PART 4.

Prince Christian's 18th birthday

15 October 2023

We have already been spoiled with so much the last couple of days and it continues. This noon, Prince Christian showed at the balcony of Frederik VIII's Palace at Amalienborg along with his family. He was surrounded by the people who love him the most. Parents, siblings and grandmother.

Hundreds of Danes showed up at the Amalienborg square to get a glimpse of the family and (of course) the birthday boy himself. It was wonderful to see all of them together. Just look at the Crown Prince Couple. They are indeed proud of their firstborn.

The royal court also published new official photos on occasion of Prince Christian's birthday (here). Photographer Dennis Stenild captured yet another magical moment in the life of Danish royal family.

Embed from Getty Images

The day we first got a glimpse of the Prince a couple of days after his birth and when he was christened, Mary wore blue outfits. So did she when celebrating her firstborn on his 18th birthday. Mary wore her bespoke Søren Le Schmidt dress. She first wore it back in 2020 when attending Flag Day (here). The dress is so well-fitted and looks beautiful on her!

This time, Mary had chosen to embrace the style of her blue dreamy dress with large diamond earrings purchased at a Bruun Rasmussen auction and a couple of golden necklaces from Halberstadt and Julie Sandlau. Look closely and you will see two Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen diamond rings.

Her stunning Connaught sapphire brooch is a present from Queen Margrethe to her daughter-in-law given to her birth of Prince Christian in 2005. Mary also wore it at his christening (here).

Mary completed her magnificent outfit with smashing reused Gianvito Rossi python pumps.

Day 2. Coronation in Great Britain

06 May 2023

Royals from all over the world were gathered in London to attend the coronation of King Charles III and Queen Camilla. Royals from both Sweden, Spain, Monaco, the Netherlands, Jordan, Norway, etc. were invited to Westminister Abby to attend the historical ceremony.

Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary represented Denmark at the coronation.

Seems like I am not the only one, who fell in love with Mary's stunning outfit at the coronation in London! She is mentioned anywhere and everywhere as one of the best dressed ladies at the ceremony. "10 point goes to Mary". I really also adore Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden's outfit (here). Like the 50s/60s vibe.

Mary's brand new coat-like-dress is created by Danish designer Søren Le Schmidt. I get it. Why she chose him to make her dress for the coronation. He did well! The details are exquisite.

Milliner Jane Taylor custom-made her hairband to match the color of her dress. Because the colors are so even, it looks like the hairpiece and dress were made of the exact same fabric.

She styled the outfit with smashing bright jewellery once worn by Queen Margrethe. The Queen gifted Mary with the earrings and brooch on her 50th birthday. She wore the earrings, when Princess Isabella was confirmated last year (here), but we have never seen her wear the brooch - and not both.

Her delicate necklaces are from Halberstadt and the medalion is Julie Sandlau.

I was thrilled to see the purple croco clutch from Carlend Copenhagen. Mary was worn it a few times before. The color is just amazing and it is very inspirational to see her wear these bright accessories. Her beautiful purple suede pumps are reused ones from Gianvito Rossi.

Day 4. Business promotion visit in India

01 March 2023

For three days, the Crown Prince Couple have been accompanied by a business delegation of 36 Danish companies in India. They are attending a business promotion visit to promote the green transition with main focus on water and energy.

On their last day, they split up during the day and had jobs to do on their own. While Crown Prince Frederik visited IIT Madras Research Park, his wife visited the Larsen & Toubro - an Indian based engineering company that work with both industry, energy, electronics, IT, construction, etc. The Crown Princess also visited the Henning Holck-Larsen Museum located next to Larsen & Toubro's Headquarters in Chennai.

Crown Princess Mary also paid a visit to the Headquarters of Grundfos. The reason for her visit was a seminar on water sector cooperation between Denmark and India. The Crown Princess gave a speech at the opening of the seminar.

The couple accompanied each other when they were welcomed by Tamil Nadu's Governor H.E. R. N. Ravi.

In the evening, Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary attended a final reception to end the business promotion with style. The business delegation from Denmark also attended the reception. The commitment between Denmark and Tamil Nadu was celebrated. After the reception followed a dinner with Grundfos. They celebrate their 25th anniversary doing business in India.

During the day in Chennai, India

Those of you who have followed Style of Mary for some time will know that I am totally in love with suits. Especially, when Mary wears them. I get chills every time she chooses to wear one of her suits - or just color matching outfits. Looks good on her. This brown suit is no exception. Just look at her! Isn't that an incredible outfit? Actually, she has worn the trousers once before, when attending the launch of UNFPA's "State of World Population Report 2022" (here). But the blazer is never seen before. I learned that Mary's blazer is also from marvelous Max Mara. The same goes with her new white blouse as well. Can't get enough of this outfit. Wauw.

Mary embraced the look with some smashing pieces of jewellery. She repeated wearing necklaces from Halberstadt and Julie Sandlau. If the symbolism is what we have come to believe, then it is even more precious. We get a glimpse of a diamond bangle from Ole Lynggard Copenhagen and a beautifully crafted ring from Rebekka Notkin as well. Of course - the earrings. At the moment, I do not know a thing about them.

When Mary first wore the Malone Souliers heels, I was no fan (at all!). Thought they looked a bit odd and funny. I changed my mind. This is a perfect example of how much ones mind can change, when a piece of accessory is worn differently.

In the evening, Mary had changed to something a bit more glamorous. She had chosen an old custom-made dress made by Søren Le Schmidt. She first wore it for the Crown Prince Couple's Prizes award show in 2020 (here). I like it a bit more this time. Don't know why but I do.

Mary was wearing stunning diamond and Aquamarine blue earrings once purchased on an Bruun Rasmussen auction. They go way back. She has worn them on a number of different occasions. Like, when visiting New York in 2005 (here) and in 2013, when Denmark hosted an official visit from Finland (here). Once again, she also wore her Halberstadt og Julie Sandlau necklaces. The diamond bangle from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen is also the same as earlier. She added a golden piece from Dulong Fine Jewelry as well.

A couple of days prior to the final reception, Mary accessories a look with her pink satin box clutch from Bottega Veneta (here). She repeated that success. The magnificent light grey satin pumps are delicate creations from Manolo Blahnik.

Day 2. Business promotion in India

27 February 2023

Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary arrived in India the previous day on February 26h. The royal couple are in India to participate a business promotion visit along with 36 Danish companies. The visit forces on the green transition with special attention to water and energy. A number of Danish politicians will also participate the delegation.

On the second, the Crown Prince Couple accompanied each other all day. First, they visited India's Minister of Foreign Affairs Subrahmanyam Jaishankar at ITC Maurya in New Delhi.

Later on, the couple visited Mahatma Gandhi's monument. They paid their respect with a beautiful wreath on occasion of his death 75 years ago. Then they enjoyed lunch hosted by Vice Prescient Jagdeep Dhankhar. It was part of the official welcoming ceremony. Before the Grand Dinner, the royal couple attended the opening of a silver exhibition at New Delhi's National Museum.

Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary visiting Mahatma Gandhi's monument

I truly had no idea what to "expect" from her, when it comes to outfits. Think I had something like this in mind. Summery, light and in powdered colors. Mary in that Olga Vilshenko dress is a dream come true. She looks absolute stunning. It is simple in color and silhouette, but yet elegant because of that delicate floral print.

Mary embraced it beautifully with custom-made earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry. Look how well their blue color match her dresses flowers! The earrings have replaceable pendants - some of them are here and here. We get a small glimpse of her magical necklaces from Halberstadt and the personalized Julie Sandlau creation. She also styled the outfit with a couple of diamond rings from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen.

I am not sure I would have chosen the same Dior clutch to this look, but it could have been worse. I like the material with the flowly dress. She had chosen a pair of reused suede pumps from Gianvito Rossi.

The Crown Prince Couple attending Grand Dinner

In the evening, the couple attended Grand Dinner along with the rest of the Danish business delegation. Mary looked breathtaking! I feel the same goes for everyone else: Mary was indeed Queen of the Night. Right? The impressive asymmetric gown is a creation by Danish designer Søren Le Schmidt. Every single time she has worn it, Mary has impressed the world with her beauty.

The earrings are classy and traditional Portuguese design. Mary has worn hers before. Among others at Red Cross' 150th anniversary in 2014 (here). Think it was the first time she wore them. Incredible choice. Looked great with the golden Halberstadt necklace and Julie Sandlau creation.

Mary was also wearing quite a few bracelets. I am able to identify one of them as Rebekka Notkin. The blush pink knotted clutch is Bottega Veneta's iconic design.

... and - I am a HUGE fan of her "hairpiece". What a lovely accessory.

Presenting the Women's Board Award 2023

03 February 2023

It is not the first time Crown Princess Mary is attending the presentation of the Women's Board Award. It was first handed out in Denmark in 2014. The Crown Princess has presented winners of the Women's Board Award for now seven years - 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020.

11 women were nominated as role models for future board leaders. The Women's Board Award aim to inspire more women to take leading positions. To spotlight female board members. Also to enlighten how women can create value to companies.

This years winner of the Women's Board Award 2023 was Malou Aamund. She was given the award for her many years being involved board work. Alongside she has also previously worked a number of leading positions in the IT industry.

Yes. Yes. Yes. This is exactly the look I have been waiting for! I truly missed her wearing some colours and that dark green is everything I needed. This magical dress is custom-made by talented Søren Le Schmidt. A one-of-a-kind Danish designer. He has created several pieces to her wardrobe (here, here, here). Mary wore the emerald green dress for the first time, when being celebrated by collaborators and partners of the Mary Foundation on occasion of her 50th birthday last year (here).

As in 2022, she decided to embraced the style by wearing nude pointed pumps from Prada. I always adores when she matches a bright colour with nude accessories. The beautiful ostrich clutch is from Naledi Copenhagen. A personal favourite of hers.

Mary also wore a stunning green ring from Annikat. A lovely match with the custom-made Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen earrings. Of course, we all like the idea of "F" standing for Frederik and the small medalion to be a gift from her husband. Right? Nevertheless, the shorter 'F' necklace has been identified as a Halberstadt creation.
