Day 3. United Nations General Assembly in New York

Tuesday, September 19th


 It is her third and last day in New York. The Crown Princess has been visiting the city for three days on occasion of the United Nations General Assembly. On Tuesday she attended several different events, among others the Forbes Summit which took place in the morning. The summit was followed by her present at Global Goals World Cup where the Crown Princess presented a player for SDG 5 Dream Team Player. Here she met with the Danish world famous actor Nikolaj Coster-Waldau. He was announced goodwill-ambassador of the United Nations in 2016. Seems like the two of them were getting a long very well. Think most people get along with the Crown Princess no matter when or where you meet her. Before attending dinner in the evening, she showed up at the event Handing over to Canada a new host country organized by Women Deliver.

During her last day in New York, Mary was dress beautifully in a brand new jacket and probably also trousers from Hugo Boss. I learned about the suit from Royal and Fashion. What makes this suit a bit more interesting it the white details around collar and cuffs. A very simple and delicate detail that works really well with a plain dark blue blazer like this. A first I thought her new suit was black, but later I noticed it as dark blue, which makes sense why she has chosen matching clue wedges. Since she wore these first time years ago I have been looking everywhere to find them. No one have ever been able to show me a model that looks exactly like the one she's wearing. They have been identified as both Christian Louboutin and L.K. Bennett. Then I came across a similar model from Bandolino. I was never really convinced about L.K. Bennett but now I am. I found a navy blue suede model that convinced me. She embraced a chic and polished business-like style by wearing a plain white blouse, jewellery from Dulong Fine Jewelry, Orit Elhanati, Cartier, Shamballa Jewels and Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. Really seems like Mary has embraced the love of hoop earrings and wearing multiple necklaces at once.

In the evening the Crown Princess attended a prestigious dinner hosted by Bill Gates and his wife Melinda Gates. The dinner took place on occasion of Project Everyone and a award was handed over. The Crown Princess was in a splendid mood when she entered the stage in her midnight blue dress, ready to hand over the Healthy not Hungry Award to the winner Bernard Coulibaly. Congratulations to Bernard with the very fine prize. The award is given to a person who tackle chronic malnutrition affecting children and mothers in his or her country. Queen Maxima of the Netherlands attended the dinner. The two women met during the evening and that is not the first time the two of them have met on occasion of international conference etc. In 2015 they met at the World Conference of Women's Shelters in the Hauge, here and during the Women Deliver Conference in 2016 hosted by Denmark, here.

Dinner time is equal to smashing evening outfits. All along Mary has been wearing plain colours and dimmed accessories without compromising her style. At the dinner she was dressed in one of her reused wrap dresses from Issa -and yes it is the same model worn by the Duchess of Cambridge on her engagement day. Mary dazzled in this dress back in 2016 when she attended the presentation of the Cancer Society Award on occasion of World Cancer Day, here. Love her outfit back then as much as this time. She has chosen to wear the navy blue dress with golden jewellery from Dulong Fine Jewelry and Orit Elhanti such as diamond rings from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen -three of the best Danish jewellery designers we have. Looking all gorgeous she wore the python Gianvito Rossi pointed pumps. Maybe some nail polish, a berry lipgloss or a different hairstyle would have made her outfit even more magnificent? A least we got that pair of eye catching pumps. An outfit you would wear for a evening event? I differently would.

Visiting 'Værket'

Thursday, April 27th

Crown Princess Mary visited Værket which is a project made in collaboration with Red Cross and the Mary Foundation. The visit took place in Copenhagen. 


Since 2015 have the Mary Foundation and Red Cross been collaboration on the project Værket. The project aims to remedy loneliness among adults between 30 and 60 years. So it is really all about creating new memories, good experiences and connect people in the local community. Værket is acting in so called "networking groups" that arrange different activities etc. In 2016 Mary met with one of these networking groups in Slagelse, here. On Thursday she met with a networking group at Nørrebro, Copenhagen. During her visit Mary was introduced to a few of their exercises. The reason for her visit is the project Denmark Eat Together which is organized by People's Movement Against Solitude who, by the way, work in collaboration with both the Mary Foundation and Red Cross.

In windy and cold weather the Crown Princess arrived to Nørrebro, where she was kindly welcomed by a flower girls handing over a bouquet to Mary. During her visit Mary took plenty of time speaking with as many as possible. She wasn't in a hurry at all which is what I thing Danes, and everyone else, love so much about her. The Crown Princess always takes time to listen. She was also offered a little something to eat before her visit ended a few hours later. As always, a true pleasure. 



April weather in Denmark changes almost every minute. For this reason it is not the most easy thing to the right outfit. Still, Mary did a pretty good job trying. Not sure I am a huge fan of every single piece, but the combination is exquisite! At the arrival she was wearing what I think could be a brand new bright blue coat. The colour really makes me smile. Underneath Mary has chosen a new white blouse from ba&sh and even new BW trousers from Julie Fagerholt Heartmade. So far I haven't been able to identify these three new pieces. It is with help from Kate I am able to telly you where these two pieces are from. Thanks to all of you who made me aware of the identification! Perfectly matching the rest of the outfit, she wore a pair of navy blue suede pumps. Because lack of pictures I do not know for sure if it is her pumps from Gianvito Rossi or Pura Lopez. Have you seen anything that can help me find the right ones? She embrace the chic and rather casual style by wearing rose quartz earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry and a pearl bracelet. We also got to see her golden Shamballa Jewels bracelet again. Couple of years ago she was wearing it at almost every attending occasion. Last but not least she, once again, showed us a way to reuse her black Bottega Veneta bag. Just lovely!

Meeting with the Psychiatry Foundation

Thursday, February 22nd

Crown Princess Mary attended a meeting with the Psychiatry Foundation's CEO Anne Lindhardt, Director Marianne Skjold Larsen and Communication Manager Niels Adler. 


The Crown Princess has been patron of the Psychiatry Foundation since 2004. Among others, this was one of the reasons why she attended a meeting with CEO Anne Lindhardt, Director Marianne Skjold Larsen and Communication Manager Niels Adler of the Psychiatry Foundation. The foundation aim to create a society with less people having a mental illness and more people get well and live a good life with the illness they have. The Crown Princess was informed of the Psychiatry Foundation's development and ongoing key projects. During her visit she was also given the chance to meet some of the children who have parents with a mental illness.

Not many pictures have been published, but it was an incredible smiling Crown Princess who attended the meeting. She looked terrific in a dark gray turtleneck blouse featuring long sleeves. Perfectly to the cold Danish weather we have right now. She also wore, what I believe is a new grey skirt but it is hard for me to tell you more about it, because of the lack of pictures. When arriving Mary was wearing a really amazing grey coat from Massimo Dutti. It was identified by Lurdes. The length of the skirt made it possible for us to see the long Prada boots in suede. On her right arm she had the golden Shamballa Jewels bracelet and on the other hand, as usual, her wedding- and engagement ring. Her earrings have been a mystery to me since the first time we saw them. They feature a little floral pendant and is in two different colours -pink and blue. I have had Queen Margrethe in mind all the time. That she inherited the earrings from her mother-in-law wasn't unlikely at all. And ti wasn't. These once belonged to the Queen and now Mary is giving them a new life, here. It may be a little hard to tell from this picture but I have a few close-ups saved on my computer for those of you who would like to get a closer look.

2nd New Year reception at Christiansborg

Wednesday, January 7th

Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary attended the 2nd New Year reception for the Danish Defence and Emergency Management from first, second and third rank such as national organizations and royal patronage, taking place at Christiansborg. The reception was hosted by Queen Margrethe and Prince Henrik.

* Tomorrowscrownedheads.blogspot.dk

The second and last New Year reception. I've really enjoyed the last couple of days in company with the royal family. A shame we have to wait for a year for it to happen again. But then we have something to look forward to. The second reception also took place at Christiansborg. Guests from the Danish Defence and Emergency Management from first, second and third rank such as national organizations and royal patronage were invited by the Queen and her husband. The Crown Prince couple arrived shortly before the Queen and Prince Henrik who, by the way, arrived by golden carriage as they always do. As the day before all attending guests were welcomed by the four members of the royal family. Each and every one. Maybe the part the royals hate the most about these receptions. 

… And then she is back! At the second reception Mary arrived in a outfit we have seen before, down to the last detail -almost. One little thing had changed. A brown belt had been added on the jacket to show of her small waist and made the skirt look even more gorgeous. If the alteration was a good or bad idea I can't say for sure.  In a way I like the idea to add a belt but maybe it’s not the best material to a velvet jacket? Now, on to the dreamy pink tulle skirt. This is what we imagine a real princess is wearing when we are kids and some of us also when we are a bit older. Unfortunately today's princesse's do not have the opportunity to wear such tulle skirt's very often anymore. When we talk about it, you properly also want to know who have made it. Well, she has worn the skirt with a pink lace blouse at a previous dinner where it was identified as Jayson Brunsdon, here. Mary is a perfectionist and everything must fit together, so of course jewellery and clutch is in the same colour as the jacket and skirt. You've probably already recognized the clutch comes from. It is her dusty pink clutch from Bottega Veneta.I was pretty sure she was wearing her powder pink Gianvito Rossi pumps but I was not right. With some help from Heaven I learned that Mary is in fact wearing a pair of suede Pura Lopez pumps featuring a lovely bow. Differently the first time we see them. And then with a simple bun and stunning makeup she impressed me once again.

DR Ultra Gala -It's Nice to be Nice

Friday, November 21st 

Crown Princess Mary attended DR's Ultra gala show entitled It's Nice to be Nice taking place in Horsens.

* Dr.dk

It was as guest of honor the Crown Princess arrived to Horsens to attend Denmark's Radio's (DR) Ultra Gala show titled It's Nice to be Nice focusing on young people in the age between 7-12. The gala show is all about making these young people aware of each others well-being and the importance of the right way to communicate with each other. It is the first time such a show is being held and of course Mary was present to show her support. With the Mary Foundation she is committed to improve well-being among children and young people with projects as Free of Bullying. She arrived in a great spirit with a huge smile on her face. It really looks like she was enjoyed herself in the company of the attending young people and figures from DR Ultra's broadcasts. Mary even got her very own large golden medal for being the 'nicest person' of them all.
DR Ultra and the Mary Foundation had teamed up to create a short film titled Show Courage facing the consequences of bullying. It was viewed by the audience during the evening. The Crown Princess appeared on the screen as the first thing in the short film with a clear message: show courage to do something about bullying. 

We have seen Mary pretty much lately but each time is a pleasure. What we saw at the gala show in Horsens is exactly why she is such a great inspiration for me. In my opinion this is one of the best outfit we have seen for quite some time. The lovely suede green Prada dress is not new. First she wore it in 2012 at a return dinner because of a state visit from Slovakia, here. Then in 2013 at Prince Nikolai's confirmation at the after party and in 2014 when she visited New York, here, worn with the same leopard pumps from Gianvito Rossi. At first I suggested that JOSEPH was the designer of her dress because I found a similar model. Now one appeared at Prada and I am not in doubt anymore. Prada is differently the one I have been looking for. She embraced the classy evening outfit with green Jewlscph earrings and several bracelets from among others, Shamballa Jewels. What amazed me most about this look, is how she accessorized her outfit -leopard pumps and a purple suede clutch which has been found at Hugo Boss. Never ever thought about this combination myself but I can't wait to try something similar (first I need a green dress, leopard pumps and a purple clutch). I'm just completely in love with everything about this outfit! Something you see yourself wearing one day?

Internationl conference in Copenhagen

Tuesday, November 11th

As patron of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), is Crown Princess Mary attending an international conference dealing with FGM/C. 


Ou busy Crown Princess attended on Tuesday an international conference taking place at Christiansborg Castle in Copenhagen. The conference is dealing with FGM/C and is made in collaboration with among others United Nations Population Fund (which Mary is patron of) and UNICEF Denmark. Mary was kindly welcomed by Minister of Trade and Development Mogens Jensen whom she visited South Africa with beginning of November. Quite many representatives from all over the world attended the conference and Mary took plenty of time greeting as many of them as possible when she arrived. The Crown Princess was the one who gave the opening speech and as always she was well-prepared. In the evening Mary was invited as guest of honor to attend a dinner on occasion of the international conference held in Copenhagen. 

Mary was dressed in a simple black and white outfit; in a black turtleneck dress, a pair of black patent pumps from SAND Copenhagen and a long white jacket featuring long sleeves. The coat, she has worn multiple times and was first seen in about 2005 or 2006. What I have heard is that Chanel is the designer but I doubt that. I acknowledge the fact that Chanel are known to use such a material as used for the coat but we have several talented Danish designers who could have created it. Have you ever heard any other designer being mentioned? Actually Mary has two coat in very much the same style, here, here, here, here. I have never been able to figure out if it is the same or two different coats. Do you know anything about that? It could be the same, just altered. Enough about the coat. She accessorized her outfit with golden earrings from Marianne Dulong and a Shamballa Jewels bracelet. For quite some time I have been looking everywhere to find her black clutch and have had Carlend Copenhagen in mind but that was wrong. Pernille found it at a Danish designer Quidam.

With UNECE & UNWOMEN in Geneva

Thursday, November 6th

Crown Princess Mary attended the conference Gender Equality and Empowerment of Women and Girls for Sustainable Development in the Economic Commission for Europe region. The conference takes place in Geneva. 




The Crown Princess has not yet arrived to Copenhagen again because after a four days official visit to South Africa, where she stayed in both Cape Town and Johannesburg, she is now in Geneva. The reason for her visit is the conference Gender Equality and Empowerment of Women and Girls for Sustainable Development in the Economic Commission for Europe region. The conference has been organized by the United Nation and held to mark the 20th anniversary of the women's conference in China called Beijing+20. Mary arrived shortly before the conference was about to begin. She found her seat and spend several hours listening to everything discussed on topic's as poverty, sexual- and reproductive rights and health. The Crown Princess also entered the stage and gave an intense and honest speech. 

On her official stay in South Africa we have been lucky to see some really incredibly outfits, so did we at the conference in Geneva. Not much can beat a classy navy blue suit which, by the way, is from Elise Gug (AW14). She matched her look with a pair of pointed pumps from Pura Lopez. These she has been wearing quite a few times before but I haven't really been able to find out where they were from. Now I do. Sure you noticed that brand new leaf brooch right away. Didn't you? I did. Really a masterpiece. Often, especially, brooches are so hard to find because there is a change they are inherited or purchased old. Not that many women wear brooches any longer. Never mind. Boryana is the one to credit on this because she identified it as a piece from an Oscar de la Renta jewellery collection. As other jewellery she embrace the style with designers as Hartmann's, Orit Elhanati, Ole Lynggaard, Marianne Dulong and of course Shamballa Jewels. Last but not least, we have her stunning brown leather bag from Ralph Lauren. A magnificent bag! I will not hide that I am a bit (or pretty much) envious.

Day 3. Visiting South Africa

Tuesday, November 4th

Crown Princess Mary and Minister of Trade and Development Mogens Jensen are visiting South Africa from November 2-5th. The visit focuses on, among others, sexual- and reproductive health and rights. 

Program: Johannesburg
  • 12:30 pm. Crown Princess Mary visited the Brother's for Life.
  • 3:00 pm. Crown Princess Mary visited a diabetes clinic donated by Novo Nordic.
  • 7:30 pm. The Crown Princess attended a networking reception. 

Crown Princess Mary during her third day, Johannesburg

Already on her third day! Where has the days are gone? A four day visit is really not much, so we have to take everything where she is still visiting South Africa. The Crown Princess is traveling with Minister of Trade and Development Mogens Jensen, by whom she had traveled with before on similar occasions. First two days she and Mogens Jensen have been visiting Cape Town but now they are in Johannesburg. Mary's day, or noon, began with a visit at the Brother's for Life followed by a visit to a mobile diabetes clinic in the village Winterfeld. The mobile clinic has been donated by the Danish medical company Novo Nordic and the Crown Princess got her eyes on what such an donation have been able to do in a village like Winterfeld. She and Mogens Jensen got the opportunity to talk with many of the employees working at the clinic such as some of the patient who have been got help.

I was overwhelmed by the colour combination she had chosen for today's outfit. When she arrived at the diabetes clinic she was wearing the new Etro coat featuring the most beautiful patterns. According to Princess Watchers the new dusty rose silk blouse is from Hugo Boss and with a little more help I was able to find the right one. Unfortunately, I can't share a link with you because it disappeared from the website. But I have some pictures saved on my computer to those of you who would like to see them. Do not hesitate to contact me. A blouse I hope to see again and because of the simple and feminine style I differently think we will. At the first day in Cape Town she showed us a new pair of beige Tod's wedges which we now have the pleasure to enjoy one more time. She accessorized this lovely outfit with jewellery from Marianne Dulong, Orit Elhanati and Shamballa Jewels such as her Prada sunglasses.

Crown Princess Mary attending a reception

 At 7:30 pm. arrived Mary to attend a networking reception along with Minister of Trade and Development Mogens Jensen and the Danish business delegation. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find much information from the reception. It was a network reception where several representative participated from both Denmark and South Africa which was another reason why Mary is on this official visit: to focus on the collaboration between to two countries. A reception like this is the ideal opportunity for everyone to get to know each other better. Mary welcomed all the special invited guest with a handshake, a little small talk and her lovely smile. 

In the evening when she attended the reception she had changed clothes to another smashing outfit. I was thrilled to see that Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti (Pre-Fall collection) dress again. I would never have purchased a dress like this but it looks amazing on Mary. And the way she style it with that flower earrings from Jewlscph and the way her hair is roll-up in a hairdo. It is one of my absolute favourite hairdo's -so classy, elegant and chic at the same time. Once again she was wearing her golden Orit Elhanati necklace, a Marianne Dulong and Shamballa Jewels bracelets. The diamond rings from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen are some we have seen a million times before, but I never get tired of their beauty. I have praised them before and I will gladly do it again if necessary. I am sure these jewellery were not the first ones you noticed, I didn't. My eyes were immidietly drawn to her black pearl bracelet worn on her left arm. A closer look conformed my guess; it is a Monies by Gerda Lynggaard bracelet. Both Ralph Lauren (SS2011) sandals and Naledi Copenhagen clutch were in the same magnificent beige colour and both made of exotic leather.

Day 2. Visiting South Africa

Monday, November 3rd

Accompanied by Minister of Trade and Development Mogens Jensen, is Crown Princess Mary visiting South Africa from November 2-5th, focusing on sexual- and reproductive health and rights such as the collaboration between South Africa and Denmark. 

Program: Cape Town
  • 9:00 am. Crown Princess Mary visited the Marie Stopes clinic. 
  • 2:30 pm. Crown Princess Mary visited the Mothers2Mothers clinic. 
  • 4:00 pm. The Crown Princess payed a visit to the Love Life Youth Centre. 
  • 7:00 pm. Crown Princess Mary attended the Danish Design Business Mission networking reception.

Crown Princess Mary visiting the Marie Stopes, Mothers2Mothers and Love Life Youth Centre

Mary began her day early because at 9:00 am. she arrived to the Marie Stopes clinic followed by a visit to the Mothers2Mothers clinic. The Crown Princess was in a splendid mood, something you will see if you take a look at all the amazing pictures of her from the second day in South Africa. Though she is on this official visit to focus on serious topics such as healthcare and sexual rights; it is done with a warmth and sincerity. It is like she makes everyone feel comfortable in their own skin, with nothing else than her presence. Also something you have noticed? And when you do not think it can't get any better, it gets better! Because when she visited the Love Life Youth Centre we saw her smile, laugh and even dance. Made my day a *** lot better to watch that. Judging by everything I have seen so far, Mary really really enjoy herself yesterday!

When it come to clothes; Africa means colourful pattern and prints. Multi colour maxi skirts and dresses, lots of jewellery and everything that is just too laud to wear in Denmark. Time for Mary to wear printed dressed and that is exactly what she did. During her second day in Cape Town she was dressed in a reused dress from the Spanish designer Massimo Dutti worn with a brown leather belt and a pair of matching pumps. The shoes are old and used a several previous occasions. First I heard something about Christian Louboutin, but I doubt. I still do not have the right answer to reply your question on who the designer really is, though I have a strong feeling they are from Jimmy Choo. Take a look at the one I have found down below and tell me what's on your mind. Have I found the right one already? Or do I have to keep looking. The combination with this dress and those Louise Grønlykke earrings is not new. As she wore the golden Shamballa Jewels bracelet, she had chosen her Orit Elhanati necklace and Marianne Dulong bracelet one more time. I was a bit surprised to see that golden leaf ring again. It is from I'm Jewel and one of her reused rings. Another wonderful outfit that makes me think I need a similar dress and a pair of brown look-a-like pumps. 

Dress: Massimo Dutti Langes Kleid Mit Print
Earrings: Louise Grønlykke Marrakesh earrings
Necklace: Orit Elhanati The Abyss necklace

Crown Princess Mary attending Danish Design Business Mission networking reception

But her day does not end here. In the evening, around 7:00 pm, Crown Princess Mary arrived to attend a networking reception entitled Danish Design Business Mission. Here multiple Danish brands and Danish companies were given time to show and tell much more about themselves; what they do, how they work, what design it to them and much more. She was accompanied, once again, by Minister of Trade and Development Mogens Jensen, who really seems to enjoy the Crown Princess company as much as she does his. Maybe it is worth mentioning that she attended the network reception only about an hour after she had visited the Love Life Youth Centre. She is indeed a popular women. 

At the reception she had changed to something a bit more 'evening appropriate', namely a white blouse featuring no sleeves and some kind of lace detail at front matched with a brand new maxi skirt in the most stunning colours! My reader Kate is the one to inform me who created this new skirt, Giambattista Valli did. It turns out that Crown Princess Mette-Marit of Norway has a jacket with the exact same print, here. For me, the print works best on a skirt. But who do you think wore it better? A print you would consider wearing? Mary had accessorized her casual evening outfit with a golden laser cut bracelet from Jewlscph and rather large golden earrings from the same designer. the bracelet has been seen once before on a official visit with Frederik to Rio de Janeiro in 2012, here. Do you recall having seen it before? As earlier she also wore her I'm Jewel ring, bracelets from  Marianne Dulong and  Shamballa Jewels. I tend to say, of course, she was wearing golden pumps with this outfit. She wore the same the day before and as I told you, I believe they are from Pura Lopez without it has been confirmed. Make-up and hair were perfect as always. With my eyes all over that skirt, I almost forgot to tell you about the clutch, but I'm pretty sure the remember it. It's her beige Naledi Copenhagen clutch. 

Skirt: Giambattista Valli Floral Print Skirt
Earrings: Jewlscph 205001
Necklace: Orit Elhanati The Abyss necklace

Day 1. Visiting South Africa

Sunday, November 2nd

Crown Princess Mary is visiting South Africa from November 2-5th. The Crown Princess is accompanied by Minister of Trade and Development Mogens Jensen. The visit focuses on sexual and reproductive health and rights and to promote cooperation between Denmark and South Africa.

Program: Cape Town
  • 3:00 pm. Crown Princess Mary visited Stellakaya Winery. 
  • 6:00 pm. Crown Princess Mary attended dinner with representatives from the LGBTI Community in South Africa.

Crown Princess Mary visiting Stellakaya Winery

 It has only been a few weeks since Mary was on an official two days visit to Tajikistan and here we go; yet another official visit. This time the Crown Princess is visiting South Africa accompanied by Minister of Trade and Development Mogens Jensen whom she has met and worked with at previous occasions. The two of them is visiting South Africa to focus on sexual and reproductive health and rights and to promote the cooperation between Denmark and South Africa on the field. Mary arrived to Cape Town, Africa, in the morning ready for four days state visit. The first say she only had to event to attend and one of them was Stellakaya Winery. Here she got the chance to taste a glass of wine and hear about the production. From what I see, it was with great interest the Crown Princess payed a visit to the winery.

This time a year we wear furry coats, boots featuring fur and cosy hats. It is also the reality right now, Denmark is a cold place to be. Luckily Mary is in Africa where short dresses and bare legs are required. She was wrapped up in a gorgeous printed silk dress from Heartmade Julie Fagerholt (pre-spring 2014) featuring long sleeves. To protect her eyes from the South African sun Mary wore a pair of Prada sunglasses. Something I really admire about how Mary always style her outfits, is how she's able to wear so many jewellery and still look this casual. That is not something I am capable of, are you? I managed identifying the diamond earring as Hartmann's, a Danish company selling some of the finest and best quality pink diamonds. Once again she was wearing her golden Orit Elhanati necklace, once I'm getting more and more use to, such as the Shamballa Jewels bracelet featuring a pink diamond ball and Marianne Dulong bracelet with spinel. Usually when Mary wear her diamond rings from Ole Lynggaard it is with another larger diamond ring in the middle, it was not the case this time. Now I only have left to tell you about that beige peep-toe wedges; they are from Tod's and from what I remember it's not the first time we see them. I am completely stunned by her look and I can't wait to see what she has to show us the new couple of days.

Crown Princess Mary attending dinner with the LGBTI Community

In the end of her first day in South Africa the Crown Princess attend dinner with representatives from LGBTI Community accompanied by her traveling partner Minister of Trade and Development Mogens Jensen. The dinner took place at the local restaurant La Mouette in Cape Town. Mary was warmly welcomed when she arrived. Despite some electricity problems all across Cape Town at the time when the dinner was about to begin, I'm sure it was a great opportunity for the Crown Princess and the Danish business delegation to hear more about the work that LGBTI Community do in South Africa.

I have to start by saying that I really wonder why these evening reception arrangement's are only covered by the press as little as they are. I've found three pictures and two articles. Is there some kind of 'rule' that say she can't be either photographed or interview after 6:00 pm? Well, at least we have a little material to work with, here. She showed up wearing a reused Collette Dinnigan (SS2013) dress, embroidered with grapes. Actually I have never really been a huge fan of this dress, nevertheless Mary makes it work really well. She matched the white and baby blue lace dress and silver lurex Ann Taylor cardigan with a nude  Naledi Copenhagen (NB11) clutch, the golden Orit Elhanati necklace and a golden ring and earrings from Marianne Dulong. And of course her Shamballa Jewels bracelet. For quite some time I was so sure her silver cardigan was from the Danish designer By Malene Birger but I was terribly wrong. Found a close-up on my computer where you see the label and it differently say 'Ann Taylor'. Despite my knowledge about the cardigan I haven't yet been able to track the right model down. I kinda have the same problem with her golden pumps. We have seen them a serval occasions before and I have the feeling they are from Pura Lopez, but I haven't really been able to confirm it. So, tell me is this an outfit you would rock yourself?

New ambassadors at Healthcare Denmark

Thursdag, Ocbtober 28th

Crown Princess Mary met with the representatives of Healthcare Denmark's ambassador network, as patron of Healthcare Denmark. 


The Crown Princess is really busy these days. First a two days visit to Tajikistan then the presentation of the annual Christmas Seal and now she attended a reception with representatives of Healthcare Denmark which was about to announce new ambassador's. It all took place at Børsen in Copenhagen. Members were participating from both Germany, Great Britain and the United States of America. All leading experts within healthcare. Mary was the one to enter the stage as the first person to give the opening speech. Here she spoke about the ambassador network; what it is doing, trying to do and the benefits of keeping in contact with each other internationally when it comes to improving healthcare solutions. It doesn't really get better than this; Mary in the stage talking about everything she works for which is done with such candor and commitment. They can't find a better spokesperson than her. 

This time we didn't have to wait long for pictures, which is always a pleasure. Everything about her outfit looks great and is very appropriate. At the arrival she wore her black Prada coat. Kate is the one sending me pictures of a Hugo Boss dress that looks exactly like the one she was wearing at the event, however I doubt it is the right colour she has found. To me Mary's dress look a bit more like dark green or something in that direction. Because the dress is quite simple, I think it is great she chose to wear a few more accessories. First we have a pair of magnificent earrings from Jewlscph, a golden Cartier watch and of course that incredible golden necklace from Orit Elhanati. Have ever noticed that it is bit asymmetric? We also have the Shamballa Jewls bracelet. Carlend Copenhagen and SAND Copenhagen are the designers behind her croco clutch and black leather clutch. Not much to say other than great! Love the balance between simple, elegant and everyday chic.

Presentation of this years christmas stamp

Monday, October 27th

Crown Princess Mary attended the presentation of this years Christmas stamp as patron of the Christmas Seal Foundation. 


For Mary to attend the annual presentation of the Christmas stamp, has become a tradition I think. A really great one. One I look forward to. She is always in a great mood, relaxed and down on earth. Well, she usually is but something is a bit different about this. I really can't tell what it is, maybe you can? This year was no exception. Mary was in a splendid mood and seemed to enjoy herself. The annual Christmas stamp's are designed for the Christmas Seal Foundation, which Mary is patron of, to earn money to children who lives at the so called 'Christmas Seal homes'. Here they get help to gain more confidence or if the children are troubled with weight problems. The Christmas Seal Foundation have 13 ambassadors that count among others Countess Sussie of Rosenborg. This year's Christmas stamp's are designed by graphic artist Jacob Kühne. Together, he and the Crown Princess revealed the stamp's which had been covered up until the presentation. 

The amazing Kate has found out that Mary is not wearing a dress (as I first thought...). Actually it is a a navy blue blouse from Baum und Pferdgarten and blue skirt. The great Caroline8 has made me aware, that it’s not the first time Mary has worn the skirt, it is the third the time. First when she turned 40, here,  and then in 2012 when she attended the Save a mothers life, on mothers day, here, event. I don't know if you remember the earrings? We have differently seen them before. Caroline8 also noted that they could be inherited from her mother-in-law Queen Margrethe -and they are, here. You get a close-up down below from a previous occasion. She also wore the beautiful golden necklace from Orit Elhanati (2014 collection). Many of you may have noticed the rather large ring on her right hand, here, so have I. I know absolutely nothing about it or who could have made ​​it. The size of the ring, the shape and colors surprise me a bit but it looks beautiful. Another thing to notice is differently the burgundy Prada pumps on her feet.  I like that she has chosen this colour instead of the same as the rest of the outfit. The burgundy colour gives the outfit something exciting to look at. Last but not least we have the gorgeous Quidam clutch!

Day 1. Visiting Tajikistan

Thursday, October 23rd

Crown Princess Mary is visiting Tajikistan for two days as member and patron of the WHO Regional Office for Europe, focusing on maternal- and child health.

Crown Princess Mary during her day in Tajikistan

The last couple of years the Crown Princess has spend much of her working time (maybe even spare time) committed to work with improvement on healthcare. Especially when it comes maternal- and child health Mary has used her voice to speak out laud. Now she is on a two days official visit in Tajikistan to see for herself what they have been doing to improve healthcare for women with newborns and the children. The Crown Princess is also introduced to initiatives about vaccines and how they have helped improving the WHOs european region's health situation. On her first day she visited the pediatric department in the capital city Dushanbe followed by a visit at the local hospital in Varzob. Here she attended the inauguration of a so called 'vaccine day'. In Varzob she also payed a visit to Chorbogh, a rehabilitation center for children. A wonderful day in Tajikistan. 

Usually I have high expectations when Mary is abroad, but this time I didn't. I really don't know why. Maybe I was just ready to be surprised. And I was! In a very positive way. Mary was dressed like a graceful waterlily in her old Prada (RTW Spring 2004) skirt and powder pink silk blouse (from same designer as the skirt)! When Mary turned 40 some really amazing pictures were taken of her for Berlingske (a Danish newspaper) where she wore the exact same blouse, here. The main reason why I mention this is because some of you might want to have a closer look at the blouse. Even her cardigan, which looks new to me, was in the same magnificent colour as the blouse. The combination of the pink top and the grey pencil skirt is simply outstanding. The pencil skirt was seen first time back in 2004, here, when she attended the opening of the art museum ARoS in Aarhus. At the arrival to Tajikistan she wore a short jacket, also in pink which has been seen at a previous occasion before this one. It was when she attended the kidneys day in 2014, here. She embrace the elegant style with one of her nude bags from Prada, rose quartz earrings from Marianne Dulong and a couple of diamond rings from Ole Lynggaard. These are the earrings she was wearing the day we saw little Prince Vincent and Princess Josephine for the first time, here. Good memories! Think I also see her golden Shamballa Jewels bracelet featuring a pink diamond ball. To match the bag Mary wore a pair of nude Christian Louboutin pumps.

Crown Princess Mary attending dinner

It was a guest of honor the Crown Princess attended a dinner in the evening which took place at Asia Grande Hotel in Dushanbe. Everything was perfectly decorated when Mary arrived. Flowers were arranged on the beautifully decorated tables. Before the dinner was about to take place, she and a few others got the opportunity to taste some local baked bread, something she seemed to enjoy. Also Minister of Healthcare Salimzoda were invited to attend the fine dinner. I have only been able to find very little information about what happened, but what I know for sure is that a some kind of entertainment entertained during the evening, because right next to the tables was a stage.

A dinner takes the perfect outfit, no doubt about that. Think you would probably say the same. No real dinner without the right outfit. What Mary did was show up in the most incredible (new) blue dress featuring some wonderful ruffle details and a something to show of her rather thin waist. For hours have I tried to figure out where this little wonder might be from, but so far I have not been able to find anything that comes near this. Marc Jacobs is the first designer that came to me and he still is the one I think designed this new dress but I can't find a thing. What do you think? Any ideas? Unfortunately we only have very few pictures from the dinner, such as very little information. What I see from the pictures is her black pearl Marianne Dulong bracelet and a large pair of colourful earrings. As the dress, I would really like to find out where the earrings are from. So if you have any ideas I'd love to hear from you.
