"Young Friends of Nature"

January 16, 2026

Queen Mary visited Amager Nature Center to learn more about the project "Young Friends of Nature" - a project by SIND - the Danish Association for Mental Health. Queen Mary has been patron for SIND since 2004.

Chairwoman of SIND Mia Kristina Hansen, biologist and nature guide at the Danish Nature Agency Jes Aagaard and project manager of "Young Friends of Nature" Rikke Kristiansen all joined the Queen for a walk to discuss how strong a resource nature can be to young people's health and well-being.

I always loved how well Mary blend ind and switch from fine dresses to outdoor clothing's. Just yesterday, she accompanied Queen Margrethe at the reopening of the Court Theatre wearing high heels and diamond jewellery. Today, she jumped right into olive green Laksen trousers and a matching Laksen jacket.

Her Salomon boots were a clever choice for the occasions such as a knitted beanie and turtleneck jumper. She blended in like she was just. member of the group. No fancy clothes, flower girls or waving flags. Just a dedicated patron of mental health and well-being.

Day 1. Official visit to Kenya

December 10, 2025

Queen Mary arrived yesterday in Nairobi to attend a three-day official visit to Kenya. She is traveling as patron of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). The visit will focus on the collaboration between Denmark and Kenya in areas of environmental protection, renewable energy and climate action.

She spent her first day in Kilifi Country- the South East part of Kenya.

Before going to the Arabuko Sokoke Forest (the largest remaining coastal forest in East Africa), the Queen met with Gideon Maitha Mung'aro, the Gonvernor of Kilifi Country.

Mary is known to wear these printed Heartmade Julie Fagerholt blouses when abroad on visits like these. She first wore this one when on a work visit in Mozambique with UNFPA 2012. It looked great paired with those soft beige trousers and the dark brown leather belt. When meeting with the the Gonvernor of Kilifi Country, Mary also wore a fine blue blazer.

Mary style the casual outfit with a brand new Aiayu cap and Ray Ban sunglasses. We haven't seen the Orit Elhanati necklace for quite a while. A few years back she wore it all the time. I kinda missed it. Looks beautiful with the colorful beaded Dulong Fine Jewelry necklace.

She changed from a pair of Prada ballet flats to Salomon walking boots when going into the rainforest.

Day 1. UN Climate Conference 'COP30'

November 11, 2025

Field visit

Queen Mary has traveled to Brazil on official business attending UN's Climate Conference 'COP30'. The city of Belém will host the two-days conference.

The Queen first attended a field visit in the area around Belém. The Amazon faces many challenges, which is why she visited the production site Ilha do Combu along with researchers and various organizations to highlight the importance of our rainforests. The First Lady of the state of Pará, Daniela Lima Barbalho accompanied the Queen at the cocoa production site. 

The Queen also had the opportunity to see examples of agriculture and gastronomy during her visit.

She was one big smile when visiting the cocoa production site Ilha do Combu in Belém. That makes a rather plain outfit sunny and warm. Mary was dressed in a pair of new black trousers from Columbia and a chic dusty brown linen blouse. Not quite sure the blouse has been identified yet. Nor if she has worn it before. The braided leather belt was a great detail!

Mary stayed casual by wearing reused Ray Ban sunglasses but no outfit without a few pieces of jewellery. The stunning diamond necklace is a favorite from Louise Grønlykke and the golden bracelets are from talented Dulong Fine Jewelry. Her hiking boots are old ones from Salomon.

Official welcoming

Queen Mary was officially welcomed at the Hangar in Belém, where COP30 takes place these days. She had the honor of visiting the exhibition of COP30 as well.

The Danish business delegation traveling alongside the Queen also had the opportunity to meet Queen Mary herself. After some time at the Danish Pavilion she attended a reception on occasion of the conference.

I love the bold colors of this outfit! The beautiful green Stella McCartney blouse was everything I needed to complete the day. And just look at that magnificent printed FARM Rio skirt. Even the length is perfect. Mary first wore the blouse when visiting Ethiopia in 2019. Back then she matched it with another printed skirt from Max Mara.

Mary styled her outfit with simple black heeled sandals from Gianvito Rossi. She has a matching pair in brown leather. She had chosen fine golden earrings and a couple of bracelets from Dulong Fine Jewelry. The massive golden bangle is a creation by Rebekka Notkin and the diamond necklace is Louise Grønlykke.

I know this event was no fashionshow but her outfit was one messy thing. Practical trekking trousers, some casual denim and expensive diamond jewellery. It is a very strange combination. Nevertheless. Mary wore brand new Mountain Warehouse trousers, a matching dark green blouse and an iconic denim shirt from Ralph Lauren.

Her chic sunglasses are from Ray Ban. The hiking boots are classy ones from Salomon.

Mary accessorized the outfit with a diamond necklace from Louise Grønlykke, a golden Rebekka Notkin bangle and a colorful bracelet from Dulong Fine Jewelry. The ring is very likely from Oura.

Day 3. Official visit to the Faroe Islands

Eiði

June 13, 2025

King Frederik, Queen Mary and Princess Josephine have visited the islands of Tórshavn, Vágur, Fámjin, Tvøroyi as part of an official visit to the Faroe Islands. The tree days visit is hosted by Attorney General Aksel V. Johannesen.

On June 13th, the three of them docked with Dannebrog in Eiði. The King and Queen were pleased to meet the artists Sigrun Gunnarsdóttir. Sigrun is born and raised in Eiði. Her art is created with inspiration from the Faroese nature and culture.

The royal couple were then welcomed in Vaglið by the Mayor of Eiði. He introduced the them to the city council and gave a welcoming speech. King Frederik and Queen Mary also enjoyed lunch at Hólmhúsið.

Did you know that Mary's Strenesse jacket goes back to 2005 and is part of a pants suit? She first wore it in public in 2006 when visiting Kiel. When visiting Eiði Mary styled the jacket with a checkered Ralph Lauren skirt. It was first seen in 2018. I kinda like the skirt but I am not sure it goes well with the jacket. What do you think?

She accessorized the outfit with beloved golden Dulong Fine Jewelry earrings and a matching custom-made ring also crafted by Dulong Fine Jewelry. Her smashing black heeled boots are reused from Gianvito Rossi. I really want a pair of boots like these. Maybe brown leather.

Hiking in Eiðiskollur

North of Eiði lies the mountain Eiðiskollur. King Frederik, Queen Mary and Princess Josephine hiked Eiðiskollur. The mountain is a 343-meter-high rock formation which offered a magnificent view of the landscape.

On their trip to Eiðiskollur they found a few fjallabrúður - a unique mountain flower, which is also seen in Queen Mary's national costome.

Hiking around Eiði Mary had chosen the perfect outfit: her blue down-jacket from Patagonia and green Laksen trousers. Looks like she was also wearing a black jacket. The chic tweed cap is still a mystery. As you know it was first worn by her husband some year's back. Suddenly, Mary started wearing it.

She kept all her belongings in a Haglöfs backpack. The hiking boots are new ones from Salomon.

Reception at Danneborg

It has been three wonderful days for the royal couple and their youngest visiting Tórshavn, Vágur, Fámjin, Tvøroyi and Eiði.

On June 13th the King and Queen hosted a reception at Dannebrog. The reception marks the official end of the couple's visit.

Wauw! Mary looked absolutely stunning. Radiant in her bright red dress created by the talented Danish tailor Birgit Hallstein. She was the one tailoring Mary's wedding gown. Birgit Hallstein also made quite a few other dressed for Mary since the wedding in 2004.

We only have a couple of photos from the reception at Dannebrog. They show Mary in her stunning dress and jewellery from Rebekka Notkin. She is fond of wearing these earrings with the golden bangle and diamond studded ring. Iconic designs by Rebekka Notkin.

Day 2. Official visit to the Faroe Islands

Vágur, Fámjin, Tvøroyri

June 12, 2025

King Frederik, Queen Mary and Princess Josephine arrived in Tórshavn on June 11th. They are traveling with Dannebrog - the Danish royal yacht.

On June 12th Dannebrog docked Vágur, where they visited both FabLab, Vágseiði and the nursing home Hamragarður.

Later that day the arrived in Fámjin. The King and Queen visited the company TARI. They farm seaweed and make products of seaweed.

The last stop was Tvøroyri. The couple accompanied each other when visiting the kindergarden Mýrifípan. At the plantation King Frederik and Queen Mary helped each other plant a tree.

In the evening the coupe attended a dinner hosted by Mayor Kristin Michelsen. The dinner took place at the culture house SALT.

Visiting the Faroe Islands takes a warm and practical wardrobe. Mary packed wisely. When visiting Vágur Mary embraced a chic look. She wore a couple of coats from Scandinavian Edition and Uniqlo. Later on she changed to a lovely creamy white Harris Wharf London double-breasted coat. A perfect match with the dark blue turtleneck and the printed Etro belt.

She styled the outfit with beloved diamond earrings from Sophie Bille Brahe and a magnificent diamond ring. One day I hope to be able to identify it.

When spilinning in Vágur Mary wore Salomon boots. She then changed to a pair of black suede boots.

Official visit to the Faroe Islands

Private visit to Koltur

June 10, 2025

King Frederik and Queen Mary will be on official visit to the Faroe Island's from June 11 to 13th. They will be staying on board Dannebrog. The couple will be visiting Tórshavn, Vágur, Fámjin, Tvøroyi and Eiði. The tree day visit is hosted by Attorney General Aksel V. Johannesen.

The couple made a private visit at the island of Koltur south of Streymoy prior to the official visit on June 11. Princess Josephine surprised everbody with her participation. What an experience to have with your parents.

The three of them visited the historical settlements Nor ami í Ger Kongi and Heima í Húsi. These settlements are from dated back to the Viking age.

I am not quite sure if it in fact is the same jacket. If it is the same color. If so then Mary's Cintamani jacket goes back to 2009 or 2010. Mary also wore a Cintamani jacket skiing in Verbier in 2013. When visiting Koltur she stayed warm in a down-jacket from Patagonia as well and trousers from Laksen.

She has worn the tweed cap quite a few times. It has never been identified. Frederik has been seen wearing the cap too. Mary's practical backpack is a new one from Haglöfs. The Salomon shoes were a perfect match for the hike around Koltur. I think she was wearing her health-tracking ring.

Knudshoved Odde

May 27, 2025

Queen Mary visited Knudshoved Odde near Vordingborg as patron of WWF World Wide Fund for Nature who are currently working on a project to ensure better living conditions for endangered animal species.

Mikkel Aarø-Hansen, General Secretary of WWF World Wide Fund for Nature accompanied Mayor of Vordingborg Mikael Smed, Landowner of Rosenfeldt Gods Nicolai Oxholm Tillisch and director of Ravn-Nature Peer Ravn when welcoming the Queen when she arrived at Knudshoved Odde.

The Queen was scheduled to take part in a butterfly release, but cool weather meant that it was postponed. Instead, some of the butterflies were displayed and later to be released when the weather is warmer.

During the visit, the Queen also participated in releasing bell frogs and spread a seed mixture on the forest meadow.

This is what I love so much about our Queen: she is not afraid of jumping into a lake, climb a tree or release a frog. For her visit at Knudshoved Odde Mary had chosen a pair of reused Laksen trousers, an old down-vest from Moncler and a brand new Scandinavian Edition jacket.

The cool canvas belt with the brass buckle is from the Swedish Fjällräven. It features the iconic Fjällräven logo: the fox. Mary also wore new outdoor shoes from Salomon.

We also get a glimpse of a golden ring studded with diamonds from Dulong Fine Jewelry. I've been interested in knowing more about her rather massive silver ring. She has worn it on a few occasion's prior to her visit at Knudshoved Odde. It is now told to be a 'smart ring' that track you health. Your level of stress, sleep and heartbeat.

Day 2. Official visit to the Faroe Islands

August, Friday 24th

- Arrival -
The arrival to Tórshavn on the Faroe Islands was a huge succes. Crown Prince Frederik and his wife Crown Princess Mary were warmly welcomed arriving to the islands along with all four children. In Tórshavn (and surrounding areas) the family enjoyed the day by visiting among others the Government buildings in Tinganes, a women's house and spending the evening in Nordens Hus. A wonderful day, here.

The following day it was time to visit Klaksvïk, Ósalund, Fugloy and Mikladal. The family arrived by the royal yacht Dannebrog around 9 o'clock. Mayor, Jógvan Skorheim and his wife Mrs Mígdis Skorheim welcomed the couple arriving to Klaksvík. It was a warmhearted and sincere welcoming. Time was also for greetings, handshakes and lots of smiles. Both the Crown Prince couple and all four children spend much time meeting the attendances. What a sight. We rarely see the whole family gathered like this. Makes me proud to have a royal family like this with prince's and princess' who make an "down on earth" appearance just as their parents. Guess that is why this particular family is loved so much by all of us.

And the family seems to enjoy it as much as the rest of us. They were one big smile all day long. Both when visiting Biskupstorg to see 3D plans for a new building project, Ósalund and a nearly 100 years old money institute.

When arriving to Klaksvïk Friday morning Mary was dressed, once again, in her personal national costume. It was given to her as a present from Faroe Islands National Assembly and Legislation, when she first visited the Faroe Islands in 2005 - we haven't seen it since. Mary's national costume comes with an apron and scarf og dark green wool featuring a Marguerite pattern. It is matched with a knitted sweater featuring snowflakes, coloured red and black. Her costume is also detailed with silver pieces which are designed specially for her. Mary was not the only one wearing her traditional costume. The rest of the family did too. Each costume has its own story to be read here.

On the second day on the Faroe Islands she embraced the style with a half updo, earrings from Hartmann's, diamond rings from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen, an Orit Elhanati necklace and a reused hairpiece. Did you noticed it? I still really want to get some pictures showing details from her outfit. That is not easy to find. We get a glimpse of her hairstyle in videos shared online. It is her old piece from PICO. This was first worn at the presentation of 'Crown Princess Mary's Scholarship' earlier this year, here. Not sure I would wear it myself but she makes it work perfectly. We could also take a lesson from the two princesses - Princess Isabella and Princess Josephine embraced the most amazing hairstyles as their mother.

- Visiting Fugloy & Mikladal -
On Friday the Crown Prince couple and their children also visited the island Fugloy and Mikladal as part of their official visit to the Faroe Islands. Arriving to Fugloy the family was kindly welcomed by mayor, Amalia í Frammistovu who also hosted a lunch for the family. In Fugloy the royal family went for a walk to see the incredible nature the islands have to offer.

Indeed it is a pleasure to see the family all together. Prince Christian seems to get along with the attention very well. He is having fun with his siblings and leading the way. Even Prince Vincent seem to feel much better in public. Princess Isabella and littler sister Princess Josephine stay close and enjoy the visit a bit more in silence. A least that is what I see.

Arriving to Mikladal on the island Kalsoy, the royal family was welcomed by Mayor, Jógvan Skorheim and Mrs Vígdas Skorheim - the same who welcomed the couple earlier in Klaksvík. They were about to visit a very special statue in Mikladal called 'Sælkvinden' (the Seal Woman).

All this and much more took place in the hours spend in Klaksvík, Fugloy and Mikladal till the visit ended around 4:00 pm. in the afternoon.

Time for other more practical clothes - and warm I guess. The whole family had changed from colourful national costumes to brownish outdoors clothes. The children matched each others perfectly. Crown Prince Frederik kept warm in a more greenish outfits, while Mary was wrapped up in a checkered bottom-down shirt, a grey woolen sweater found at Ralph Lauren (collection: POLO Ralph Lauren), a quilted vest and a jacket. It is all about keeping warm. Trousers and boots from Salomon made the job as well.

Though it is a visit transmitted all over the world we only have very few quality pictures of her outfit. Kate managed to see a logo on her jacket and identified it as Härkila. I found that the trousers are also from Härkila. Don't think we have seen either bottom-down shirt or the grey sweater before. The hat we have, as well as the cuff warmers (actually I have no idea what they are called in English. Correct me if I am wrong). These was worn at the Hubertus Hunt in Dyrehaven last year, here. Not much else to say; she also wore a pair of diamond earrings which could be Hartmann's.
