Hubertus Hunt in Dyrehaven 2024

03 November 2024

Princess Josephine accompanied her mother at the annual Hubertus Hunt in Dyrehaven north of Copenhagen. They watched the hunt and associated obstacle course from the balcony of the Eremitage castle.

The Hubertus Hunt goes back to the year of 1900. Back in the days, the riders hunted down a fox with help from their dogs. Today, the fox is simply a rider with a foxtail.

Queen Mary also handed over the "Queen Mary's Honorary Award" to rider Niels Goldschmidt and his horse Irish Diamond. She also presented the medals to the first, second and third place of the Hubertus Hunt's pony riders. In order: Malou Kiran Grenal, Maise Broge Nielsen and Tilde Plaep.

I love this time a year! Mainly because of what we wear. Long coats, woolen sweaters, boots, scarves, etc. That's why I always look forward to her attending the Hubertus Hunt. Because of her outfit. This year, Mary had chosen a pair of smashing green velvet trousers, a creamy white turtleneck, a reused Seeland down-vest and a stunning long Strenesse coat.

The trousers have yet to be found. She first wore them at the same event in 2018 and then again in 2019, when visiting Roskilde. Really want green velvet trousers myself. I adore velvet! Mary has also worn the Strenesse coat before at a similar event in Gribskov in 2019.

Mary matched the clothes with stunning brown heeled leather boots, a reused Prada bag and a wide-brimmed felt hat - embellished with a Ragnar R. Jørgensen brooch. Her delicate diamond ring is from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. She later changed to a bright knitted beanie.

Free the horses

07 June 2024

Queen Mary visited Karlebo in Northern Sjælland to watch when the royal white Kladruber horses were freed on open field for the summer. In August, the horses will be back in the Royal Stables at Christiansborg.

It has been a tradition for 40 years for the horses to enjoy summertime like this.

Mary attended the small event in Karlebo all unofficially. She was accompanied by one (or both) family dogs. She rocked a simple and casual outfit. She matched a red and blue striped blouse with new wide-legged jeans and her Seeland quilted vest.

Somehow, the hat caught everybody's attention. Yes it is true that Frederik has been seen wearing the hat some years ago. Since 2022, Mary seems to have taken over the chic tweed cap. Still no clue about the designer.

Her exclusive diamond necklace is from Halberstadt and the golden bangle is from Dulong Fine Jewelry.

Queen Mary attended the inauguration of the south part of 'Jægersborg Fence' in Nærum. This part of the forest is untouched and grow wild.

At the inauguration, the Queen gave a little speech and by that revealed a new logo of King Frederik X "guarding" the gate to the southern part of Jægersborg. She also released a couple of deers as a symbol of the inauguration.

Visiting nature gift project with WWF

17 May 2023

It was as patron for the WWF World Wild Fund for Nature that Crown Princess Mary visited Geding-Kasted swamp to fight for biodiversity.

The World Wild Fund for Nature has established a new home in Geding-Kasted swamp to house the small frog - the tree frog. Crown Princess Mary took part of inaugurate their new home.

She was accompanied by Jacob Bundgaard - Mayor in Aarhus, when setting free frogs and tadpoles. To create the perfect livingspace for the tree frog, she also helped plant trees.

It was a magical moment when Mary visited Geding-Kasted swamp. She was in a wonderful mood all dressed in comfortable and practical clothes. The lovely Härlika jacket is new, but I imagine she has worn it on private occasions. It is great for outdoor workings. The Seeland vest is a reuse worn on a number of different occasions. Like, when attending the Hubertus Hunt in 2022 (here). Mary matched her look with a light brown knitted blouse and greenish trousers. The fine cable-knit sweater is from Ralph Lauren.

What better than wearing new black rubber boots from Le Chameau.

If you take a close look, you will see that Mary actually wore quite a few pieces of jewellery as well. The fine diamond studded earrings are from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. The same designer also created her diamond bangle and matching rings.

I think she was wearing a golden bracelet are two as well, but I need more photos to confirm.

Hubertus Hunt 2022

06 November 2022

The Hubertus Hunt is an annual event taking place in Dyrehaven, Klampenborg. Always on the first Sunday in November.

For many years, members of the Crown Prince family have attended the Hubertus Hunt. They watched the race from the Eremitage Castle laying centered in Dyrehaven.

Since the beginning of the 1900th hundred, riders participating the hunt has hunted a fox with the help from dogs. Today, the fox has been replaced by a rider with a fox tale. During the hunt, the riders are to handle 32 obstacles.

This year, Princess Josephines accompanied her mother. Also when she was to present the winner of Crown Princess Mary's Honourary Award. The award was first given in the name of Queen Ingrid and later on Prince Henrik handed over the award in his name. After his death, his daughter-in-law took over the prestiges honor.

It was truly a pleasure to see mother and daughter spending a day together. Of course, you noticed that Princess Josephines borrowed her mother's coat for the event. Meanwhile, Mary kept warm in something as chic. One of my favourite events a year, is the Hubertus Hunt. Primarily, because of Mary's outfits. I love these brownish, warm and casual outfits.

This year, Mary had chosen to wear a dark green turtleneck and reused tweed trousers. Unfortunately, I have never been able to identify the trousers - even though I'd love to! In 2012, she was very fond of these trousers (here). Thrilled to see them again after all these years.

I learned from Heaven that her jacket is from Dubarry. She also informed me that one of her friends, were able to identify Mary's greenish quilted vest is a Seeland design. Great findings, right?

Believe she was wearing brown suede boots, but I am troubled to say for sure. She was also carrying her Tod's leather tote. The navy blue hat was an amazing accessory for the event. It is from Bonpoint.

#ForNaturenWWF

21st May

May 22nd is UN's International Biodiversity Day. On that occasion, Crown Princess Mary is launching a new digital project on Instagram called "Together for Nature" (Sammen for Naturen). Bo Øksnebjerg, General Secretary for WWF World Wild Fund for Nature accompanied the Crown Princess for this very special occasion.

The project is really all about gathering people and their joy for nature. The hashtag "ForNaturenWWF" gives people the opportunity to share their own photos of nature. WWF World Wild Fund for Nature encourage people to share a little about where the photo was taken. Every week has its own theme. First theme is named "Forest & Land" (Skov & Land). If any of you Danes would like to participate this wonderful and exciting project that "Together for Nature" is, then you have from May 22 to June 11 to share all our amazing experiences with nature. Read a little more about the project here. Every week one or two photos are highlighted; chosen by a jury - in which the Crown Princess is also part of. Wauw I like this idea!

As President of WWF World Wild Fund for Nature, Crown Princess Mary also share a short statement on occasion of the launching. Her last frase is my favourite. She says: "The more we pay attention to what happens in nature, the more we are willing to take care of it". Let us take care of nature together - it is vitally informant for us in so many ways. Crown Princess Mary also shared a photo of her own with us under the hashtag "ForNaturenWWF" (the third photo embedded).

Sharing a moment with Bo Øksnebjerg, the General Secretary of WWF World Wild Fund for Nature, Mary had chosen the most lovely and relaxed outfit. In many ways it reminds me of her look in an interview with Politikken back in 2004 (here). I know there are not much resemblance in what she is actually wearing, but somehow the atmosphere is kinda the same to me. What do you think? Am I all wrong in this assumption?

She embraced a chic outfit by wearing a brand new pink pinstriped button-down shirt. I strongly believe we have not seen this before, but maybe she has worn it privately. I like that thought. She matched it with a moss green quilted vest from Seeland. A reused vest worn twice before. At the annual Hubertus Hunt in Dyrehaven in 2017 (here) and when the family payed a visit to the Faroe Islands in 2018 (here). So far, I have no idea where to find it. I have not been able to identify it. Jeans topped of her looks perfectly.

Otherwise, there are very little accessories to look for. I see her wearing the golden Cartier bangle and a pair of rubber boots. To me they are new and I believe I was able the find the right model at Le Chameau. I know the color is all wrong.

Hubertus hunt in Dyrehaven

It has been a tradition for quite some years for the Danish royal family members, at least some of them, to attend the Hubertus hunt in Dyrehaven near the Eremitage palace, here. This year Crown Princess Mary enjoyed a day in Dyrehaven accompanied by all four children -Prince Christian, Princess Isabella, Prince Vincent and Princess Josephine. The Hubertus hunt goes back to 1900 and has taken place since then on the first Sunday in November. Yes, very little changes in Denmark. To me it looks like the four royal children really enjoyed a day along with their mother and vice versa. From the balcony of the Eremitage palace the family closely followed the hunt; the Crown Princess with a cop of coffee in her hands. Following, the five royal members enjoyed a ride in Dyrehaven in an open coach. Several picture show that the family spend much time chatting with people also attending the hunt and the two princesses couldn't stay away from the horses.

We have already seen many lovely outfits the last few years when Mary and the children have attended the Hubertus hunt in Dyrehaven. I found some, here & here. This year Mary was dressed in a cosy, warm outfit probably because of the rather cold weather. She dazzled in a new knitted turtleneck, a new down vest from Seeland, a reused green coat and slim jeans. Maybe not the most exciting combo but wait till you see it. Looks just great. I got a strong idea that the knitted turtleneck could be from Ralph Lauren. About her coat I am way more confident. A good friend of mine, Kate, managed to identify the coat even though it is 2012, here. And it is from Burberry. Unfortunately, I'm not able to share a link with you other than to another blogger, who shared a picture, here. 

She also showed up wearing a pair of brand new suede boots in green. Not sure I like them very much nor have I found them yet. Any ideas? I would really like to hear your opinion on this one. Tried everything and I still haven't got a clue where they are from. Mary accessorized her look with not just one, but two bags. One new. One old. The old one goes a few years back and is from DAY Birger et Mikkelsen. The other one is a brand new leather tote bag from Prada. Haven't found the right colour but I'm pretty sure I got the right model. Other than that she embraced a chic winter style by wearing diamond earrings and a matching ring from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen.
