 Day 7.

The Olympic Games 2024


03 August 2024

Dressage at Versailles

It was a big day for the Danish team of Daniel Bachmann Andersen, Cathrine Laudrup-Dufour and Nanna Skodborg Merrald when participating the dressage final on August 3rd at Versailles in Paris.

Queen Mary and her two close friends Helle Trolle and Malou Skeel supported the Danish team being present at the final. So was Princess Benedikte and her lady-in-waiting Countess Mette Ahlefeldt-Laurvig.

Denmark won silver because of Cathrine Laudrup-Dufour's amazing performance. Congratulations to Cathrine and the rest of the Danish dressage team!



Maybe it paid off wearing red and white? That is what Mary did. She wore a beautiful (new?) white dress and her bright red Vero Moda blazer - designed for the Danish teams participating the Olympic Games this year. She styled the fine dress with a super chic new belt. I really like her new belt. She has added a few to the collection lately. I still do not know where it is from.

Mary embraced the winner outfit with golden earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry and elegant necklaces from Halberstadt and Dulong Fine Jewelry. The fine diamond ring is Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. Once again, Mary carried her chic beige Prada bag. Really like it!

I am sure she wore sandals from Hermés. The more I study them, I think she wore a different color than on day 4. These seems more 'pale' than her rosy ones from her revisiting Paris on June 31st.

Handball match: Denmark VS the Republic of Korea

Later on, King Frederik joined his wife attending the women's handball match between Denmark and the Republic of Korea. They were one big cheer - of course supporting the Danish team. Queen Mary's blouse proved that. She wore a white t-shirt with 'DENMARK' printed on it.


Mary styled her cool t-shirt with lovely green trousers and a reused denim button-down from POLO Ralph Lauren. Actually, she wore this earlier in Paris on August 1st attending a rowing competition. Her fine scarf is part of the Vero Moda collection designed for the Danish team participating the Olympics. Great little detail.

She choose to wear the same golden bracelets from Dulong Fine Jewelry for the handball match. My guess is that she would also have been wearing golden necklaces as previous days.

Day 6.

The Olympic Games 2024


02 August 2024

Handball match: Denmark VS Hungary

Queen Mary was accompanied by Helle Trolle and Malou Skeel when attending a handball match between Denmark and Hungary for men. The match took place at Paris South Arena.

Numerous Danish politicians, like former Prime Minster Lars Løkke Rasmussen also watched the exciting handball match. 

Denmark won 28-25!


Mary supported the Danish team by wearing the official 'Denmark- t-shirt designed by Vero Moda. Looks like she matched the bright red blouse with creamy-colored trousers and a brown leather belt. The favorite color-combo: red and white.

She accessorized her outfit with beloved Gucci glasses and two golden bracelets from Dulong Fine Jewelry. I get a glimpse of diamond earrings. Never identified. I believe she would have worn three folden necklaces as well, but I have not been able to find a photos proving it.

Tennis match

After the handball match at Paris South Arena, the Queen Mary once again accompanied by her husband King Frederik to attend the tennis match for men at the Rolan-Garros Stadium.

The semifinal match was played by Felix Auger Aliassime from Canada and Carlos Alcaraz from Spain.

What an outfit! Love her new Rabens Saloner trousers. The kinda style we rarely see Mary wear. Baggy and casual. Usually, she wears black trousers with wide legs when wearing trousers. Dress-pants. I like this cool look. She matched them with a reused soft blue Bagutta button-down blouse and a brand new belt from Zimmermann.

Mary had chosen golden jewellery from Halberstadt, Dulong Fine Jewelry and Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. I am really interested in her rather new golden diamond ring own of her pinky. This has become a huge trend. So far, it is still a mystery to me.

She also embraced her outfit with blue Gucci sunglasses, a Canopy Bay by Deborah Hutton hat and her brown cross-body bag from Chloe. Her chic sandals are Hermés.

Day 5.

The Olympic Games 2024


01 August 2024

Rowing competition

The last couple of days, Queen Mary has attended dressage at Versailles along with two good friends. 

On August 1st, she showed up at the rowing stadion in Paris to watch Sverri Nielsen compete for the Danish team. Sverri Nielsen is from the Faroe Islands but is rowing for the Danish Students Rowing Club.


We haven't got that many photos of Mary attending the rowing competition but yet enough to look closer at what she was wearing. She matched a simple white blouse with a reused POLO Ralph Lauren denim shirt and green trousers. We have seen her wear the denim shirt twice: at the World Cup 2023 and when she participated packing backpacks along at LEGO in Billund last year.

Her cool reed cap is part of Vero Moda's collection for the Danish teams participating the Olympics. Jack & Jones designed the men's collection. Both brands are owned by the Danish company Bestseller.

Ones again, Mary wore golden jewellery from Halberstadt and Dulong Fine Jewelry. I like her wearing multiple necklaces and bracelets. Looks exclusive and elegant.

Artistic Gymnastics and a swimming competition

Later on the day of August 1st, the Queen attended the women's Artistic Gymnastic All-Around Final at the Bercy Arena. Once again, she was accompanied by Helle Trolle and Malou Skeel.

They were also present at the 4 x 200 mentor Freestyle Relay swimming competition for women.

Love that the three of them matched outfits one more time! All wearing plain white summery blouses. Mary styled her new Massimo Dutti blouse with the before-seen printed Ganni skirt. Really like that she's wearing her clothes and accessories all over again. Like with the Ganni skirt. That is what 'we' would do when traveling.

Both necklaces Halberstadt and Dulong Fine Jewelry, the Dulong Fine Jewelry ring and tortoise-like Gucci glasses have been seen before on her trip to Paris. She changed earrings a couple of times. These golden hoops are also from Dulong Fine Jewelry. Her favorite summer-brand?

Day 4.

The Olympic Games 2024


31 July 2024

Dressage at Versailles

Queen Mary is enjoying the Olympic Games in Paris, France with two of her best friends - Helle Trolle and Malou Skeel. They arrived yesterday to watch dressage at Versailles. The Queen also watched a handball match between Denmark and Sweden.

Today, the three of them showed up for another round of dressage at Versailles. She and Helle Trolle had the pleasure of congratulation Cathrine Laudrup-Dufour with her impressive show.


Love that the three of them wore colour-matching outfits at the dressage at Versailles. Mary wore a brand new red/white pin-striped dress and a soft white linen blazer. The dress has been identified as Signe Bøgelund-Jensen.

She embraced the style with her Canopy Bay by Deborah Hutton hat and chic Celine sunglasses. I get why all of you go crazy about this outfit. I do too!

Her golden necklaces are from Halberstadt and Dulong Fine Jewelry. Bracelets and earrings are also stunning creations by talented Dulong Fine Jewelry. Even her ring is crafted by the Danish goldsmith - who also happens to be a close friend of her.

She carried all her belongings in an amazing Prada bag. No doubt about her new sandals. They are from Hermés. The color was more difficult to track down but I think I found it. Her fine little scarf is part of the Vero Moda collection designed for the Danish OL team.

Queen Mary attended a swimming night session in Paris as part of the Olympics. The swimming session took place at the Paris La Defense Arena.

She was one again accompanied by Helle Trolle and Malou Skeel.

Honestly, I think her eye-makeup was a bit too heavy but I love the rest of her look at the swimming night session. Mary matched a simple white button-down blouse with a reused navy blue printed Ganni skirt. She first wore the skirt back in 2018 when meeting with CEO of Women Deliver Katja Iversen.

The white pearl earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry goes waaaaaay back in time. Think it is the earrings she favor the most. She has worn them a million times for a million of different occasions. Her three necklaces are from Halberstadt and Dulong Fine Jewelry. The bracelets are too. Even the custom-made ring.

By now, we all know that the little delicate brown leather cross-body bag is from Chloe. First worn at a humanitarian visit to Jordan in 2013. The cool blue sandals are new ones from Prada.

Day 3.

The Olympic Games 2024


30 July 2014

Dressage at Versailles

The Queen is back! King Frederik and Queen Mary both attended the grand opening ceremony of the Olympic Games in Paris on July 26th. They were back in Denmark the following day.

Now, the Queen is back in Paris to attend more competitions. She is accompanied by two of her good friends - Malou Skeel and Helle Trolle. Her current stay in France is not part of her official calendar.

On July 30th, the three friends attended dressage at Versailles.


I have come to love Mary's casual style. All loose and summery - and lots of linen. Her 'being-back-in-Paris-look' is no exception! She rock that brand new Robert Friedman dress. The color is outstanding. Soft and comfortable.

Love how she casually accessorized this new dress with plenty of golden jewellery - mainly from Danish jewellery designer Dulong Fine Jewelry. I really need to wear multiple necklaces and bracelets. Makes an outfit complete in a whole different way. Her elegant diamond earrings are old ones from Sophie Bille Brahe.

Mary also wore a few other pieces of accessories. Among other things, new sunglasses. They have been identified as Celine. Usually, Mary wears cat-eye sunglasses or those with round glasses. These are a bit unusual. Way more square shaped. Do you like them?

She also flashed brand new Prada sandals! The same model as her brown ones. These are... BLUE. I am going crazy over her cool sandals.

Handball match: Denmark VS Sweden

Queen Mary attended a handball match between Denmark and Sweden's women's teams. She was accompanied by her two good friends Malou Skeel and Helle Trolle, whom she is traveling with these days. The match took place in the Olympic Hall.

The big question: who is the winning team? DENMARK! The Danish team won the important match.


Mary looked beautiful in her casual outfit at the handball match. She changed from a new Robert Friedman dress earlier to a simple white blouse, (new?) green linen trousers and her red Vero Moda blazer supporting the Danish teams participating the Olympics.

She accessorized the look with a number of golden pieces of jewellery. Diamond earrings from Sophie Bille Brahe, a Rebekka Noking ring, bracelets from Dulong Jewelry and necklaces from Halberstadt and Dulong Fine Jewelry. Her two golden bangles are still a mystery to me.

Her glasses are old ones from Gucci - probably her favorites glasses. The brown leather cross-body bag is Chloe. I haven't been able to find a photos showing what shoes Mary wore. Have you?

Visiting the Danish Athletes

Before attending the official opening ceremony, the King and Queen visited the Danish Athletes in the olympic city in Paris

The Danish Athletes are amongst 14,000 others participants who are about to compete different sports from today till August 11th.

King Frederik and Queen Mary joined the athletes for lunch.

Once again, Mary had chosen a red and white outfit! What's not to be proud of? Yesterday, when the couple arrived in Paris, Mary also wore the most magnificent red Max Mara jumpsuit and a white linen blazer

Today, when visiting the participating Danish Athletes in the olympic city she stunned wearing a simple white dress or blouse and skirt. I believe she wore a dress. The chic red blazer is designed by Vero Moda which has created costumes for the Danish Athletes alongside with Jack & Jones. Both Danish brands.

Mary embraced the style with golden earrings from Orit Elhanati and necklaces from Halberstadt and Dulong Fine Jewelry. Two of her bracelets are also designs by Dulong Fine Jewelry. The diamond ring is a beloved one from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen.

How to make this outfit even better? - no problem. With a brown Chloe leather bag and matching heeled sandals from Gianvito Rossi.

Official opening ceremony

What we have all been waiting for: the official opening ceremony! What a crazy experience it most have been for the couple and all the other attending the big ceremony. Imagine what went thought the participants participating the opening.

The King and Queen also attended a reception hosted by the President of France Emmanuel Macron and his wife Brigitte Macron. The reception took place at the Palais de lÈlysées.

A number of other royal guest were also invited to the reception - and the opening ceremony. The King and Queen of Spain, King Philippe and Queen Mathilda of Belgium, Prince Albert and Princess Charlene of Monaco and the lest goes on.



I truly adore Mary's outfit at the reception: a brand new Jesper Høvring blouse and stunning new white Andiata trousers. A thin brown leather belt from Scanlan & Theodore. Nevertheless, I think it was a bit too informal for the event. Looking at what all the other royal women were wearing I think Mary's was a little plain. What do you think? 

Mary also wore a new trenchcoat but this I do not recognize. Think it could be new.

Her beautiful golden diamond studded earrings are from Dulong Fine Jewelry such as two of three necklaces. The third one is Halberstadt. Do you like wearing multiple necklaces? I like it but it does not suit me very well.

At the reception, Mary used her brown Chloe bag as clutch. Think it is the first time we have seen that. Maybe another clutch would have made the outfit slightly more exclusive for the occasion?

The red rivet pumps are an iconic design by Valentino.

Day 6. Olympics in Rio de Janeiro

Saturday, August 6th

Crown Prince Frederik is present at the Olympics 2016 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, as member of the International Olympic Committee. The Crown Prince is accompanied by Crown Princess Mary. Also Prince Joachim and Princess Marie are present. 

The games are now started and participants from everywhere in the world, of almost any possible nationalities are competing to bring one of the three coveted medals back home. The best of luck to everyone. I'm not the only one cheering for the Danish athletes. Also the Crown Prince couple had found their seats, ready to cheer for their favourite athletes; first at Maria Lenk Aquatics Centre to watch water polo, then a 1:00 pm. the royal couple watched swimming at Olympic Aquatics Stadium (they even arrived before the race) followed by a basketball game. Both the Crown Prince and Crown Princess were in an excellent mood, enjoying the games taking place in Rio. 

Around afternoon it was time for the Crown Princess to leave summery Brazil and go back to windy Denmark, while her husband stayed in Rio. I'm sure she would have liked to stayed a couple more days, though I think she looked forward to be reunited with her children right in time before Prince Christian and Princess Isabella are going to school again after seven weeks of vacation. 

We have seen blurry and lots of bad quality pictures from the first five days the royal couple have been in Rio, but from the sixth and last day I have only been able to find only a single picture of the couple attending swimming at Olympic Aquatics Stadium. And it only shows her upper body. Fortunately one of you were able to find two more pictures actually showing what Mary was wearing. Cheering up the Danish athletes Mary was wearing her navy blue polo shirt from Vero Moda, a pair of white shorts and her By Malene Birger sneakers. With Prada sunglasses and pink diamond earrings from Hartmann's she enjoyed her last day all casual dressed. Keywords? Chic and sporty.

Day 5. Olympics in Rio de Janeiro

Friday, August 5th

Since July 31st Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary have been in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, along with Prince Joachim and Princess Marie. They have been present at different events on occasion of the Olympics 2016.

Crown Prince Frederik & Crown Princess Mary met Danish and Australian athletes

Only a few hours and the official opening ceremony will begin at Estadio Maracaná in Rio de Janeiro. Meanwhile the Crown Prince couple visited the Olympic Village. Here they meet both Danish and Australian athletes who expressed what an great honor it had been to meet the Crown Prince couple. The couple were also given a tour around the athletes apartments during the two and a half hour they spend in the Olympic Village. From the pictures I have seen, mostly taken by athletes who meet the couple (here, here, here, here), I think they really enjoyed each others company. I love how down to earth they both are; simply enjoying themselves in Rio. The Olympics is something they both love and I believe it brings back lots of wonderful memories. Of course from the time they met each other, but also from 2012 when Prince Christian and Princess Isabella accompanied them in London. They are an active family who enjoy all sorts of sports activities everything from football, handball, running, horse riding, golf, tennis and swimming. They also joined some of the athletes for a bike ride.


Like 80 or 90 % of all the athletes the couple met during their visit to the Olympic Village in Rio de Janeiro, the royal couple were wearing a t-shirt and shorts such as sneakers. The perfect outfit that's both sporty, casual, comfortable and chic at the same time. I think I've mentioned this once or twice before, but the clothes worn by the Danish athletes (and four royal family members) are designed by Bestseller in collaboration with athletes - sold at Jack & Jones and Vero Moda. The collection includes more than 100 styles for men and women. In the Olympic Village both Frederik and Mary wore shirts from this unique collection; Mary the same blouse as seen on Princess Marie one of the first days after her and Prince Joachim arrived to Brazil along with Prince Nikolai, Prince Felix, Prince Henrik and Princess Athena, here. Unfortunately is the t-shirt no longer available online but I found the same model just for men. Seems like the styles are incredible popular and sold out quickly.

Again she was wearing a pair of navy blue Nike shorts and matching new white sneakers from the same designer. Mary accessorized her casual look with Hartmann's earrings, a golden Orit Elhanati necklace such as bracelets from among others Dulong Fine Jewelry and Cartier. To keep her eyes protected from the warm Brazilian sun, she wore a pair of Prada sunglasses. I love how her makeup was all natural and a simple ponytail as hairstyle.

Crown Prince Frederik & Crown Princess Mary at the grand opening ceremony


Finally time is up and the Olympics 2016 in Rio de Janeiro is now officially started. The four hours long opening ceremony took place at Estadio Maracaná, Rio de Janeiro at pm. 7:15 local time which means for those of you who followed the opening living in Denmark or close by, didn't get much sleep because the time difference is about five hours. I have to admit I didn't wait up till midnight to watch the four hours show, but what I've seen is extraordinary and truly impressive. Rhythmic music, thousands of happy people, colorful costumes and lots of glittering fireworks in the end. Spectacular.

All of this and much, much more was what entertained the Crown Prince couple, Prince Joachim and Princess Marie, here. Both couple's were immortalized the moment by taken pictures and maybe a video or two. I'm sure they gave four very excited children at home, who can't wait to see these pictures.


Mary wasn't as colourful as the dancers and musicians entertaining during the opening ceremony, but I still adore her outfit. We saw a dress we haven't seen more than once several years ago. I always wondered why she hasn't worn it again because it was worn at a more or less private occasion back then. I see, with everything in her closet we have to wait maybe a year or so till we see it again, but now we have waited since 2012, when the couple arrived to Monaco to attend the wedding of Prince Albert II of Monaco and Charlene Wittstock, here. This lovely white crochet dress is from Ralph Lauren (Collection: Spring 2011) also seen on international model Claudia Schiffer, here.

As easy as it was to identify what dress she was wearing, as difficult has it been to find out about the navy blue blazer. Because it looks like she could be wearing her old Zara blazer. I'm confused because on the right side of her chest you see the logo, here, of the Danish Olympic wardrobe designed by Bestseller and a couple of Danish athletes attending the Olympics in Rio. Heaven suggested that the logo has been added to her Zara blazer. It's clear to me that Mary's blazer is not exactly the same as the athletes wore during the ceremony, here. Take a look and tell me what you think. After all, she styled her outfit with Dulong Fine Jewelry earrings, a bracelet from the same designer, one from Cartier and her stunning brown leather bag from Ralph Lauren.

Day 4. Olympics in Rio de Janeiro

Thursday, August 4th

As member of the International Olympics Committee Crown Prince Frederik is present at the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. He is accompanied by Crown Princess Mary, Prince Joachim and Princess Marie. 

Crown Princess Mary met participants from the Danish riding team

Although sports isn't in my biggest interest, it makes me so proud to know that a small country like Denmark is represented at the Olympics in Brazil. We have teams participating in everything from handball to cycling races and dressage. Yesterday, the Crown Princess met with participants from the Danish swimming team during a trainings session. I have had the opportunity to see the Crown Princess once, when she and the Crown Prince visited the city where I live back in 2007/2008 and it was such an great experience though I never got the chance to greet her. It was a very unrealistic feeling, so I truly understand if it was a huge honor for the participants to meet her and the Crown Prince. They are described as down on earth and sincere.

Before the grand opening ceremony it was time for the Crown Princess to pay the Danish riding team a visit. And from what I see, I think it was one of the best visits for the Crown Princess who, more than once, has told that she loves spending time with her horse, herehere. Something she enjoyed doing along with her children during their vacation at Gråsten castle about half a month ago.


This has to be one of my absolute favourite moments for a very long time. With a messy knot located all random on top of her head and a pair of washed denim short, Mary made me fell in love with her all over again. Down on earth, relaxed and casual dressed. These moments I love more than anything else. The only thing that reminded me where she was, is the special designed Vero Moda jacket featuring the iconic Olympic flame above "Rio 2016" font. She wore a new blue and white striped blouse from Vero Moda as well. She styled the blouse and jacket with a pair of denim shorts. I think she could be wearing sneakers. Sneakers would be a great match to that sporty outfit worn on the 4th day in Brazil.

Again, Mary embraced the style by wearing a golden Orit Elhanati necklace and her Cartier bracelet. And the pink diamond earrings from Hartmann's not to forget which, by the way, could be the same she wore yesterday when visiting the Danish swimming team. Simple and elegant, yet casual. Not much more to say only that I think this outfit would do perfectly for a day off - going for a long walk, taking the kids to the playground or meeting friends for a lunch.

Crown Prince Frederik & Crown Princess Mary attending dinner


After a long break, the Crown Prince couple were ready to attend the IOC President's dinner that took place at Windsor convention centre in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Both the Crown Prince and Crown Princess arrived to the Windsor convention centre in an excellent mood. They were one big smile at the arrival. They we warmly welcomed by the International Olympic Committee's President, Thomas Back and his lovely wife Claudia Bach. They welcomed the Danish royal couple on the red carpet.

It all began at 7:00 pm. local time. Because of the time different pictures weren't published till next day. Of all the articles I've been able to find, I believe it was a spectacular evening with more than two royal guests attending. Also Prince Albert II of Monaco, Kind Wilhelm-Alexander of the Netherlands shook hands with the IOC President and wife when welcomed. Guests with all nationalities attended the dinner - and not all of royal blod. 



Unbelievably how much a dress and a pair of pumps can do. I still love everything about Mary's look from earlier the same day and it didn't change when I saw her wearing one of her old goodies from Hugo Boss. Despite the dress isn't new (quite old actually) I can't get enough of it. True, I would never have picked the dress myself but that is what I adore about Mary because she makes even the wiriest dress look gorgeous. Right? With it's almost cosmically pattern and turtleneck Mary rocked a dazzling evening outfit. Think it is the third or fourth time she reuses the dress. Maybe you can help me find out when? - I remember sometime on a visit to the United States, at some point when she attended the presentation of a portrait made of newspapers and at a dinner along with her husband taking place in Copenhagen a couple of years ago.

As previously she accessorized it with a pair of diamond earrings featuring a coral pendant custom-made by Dulong Fine Jewelry. Both Gianvito Rossi pumps, the Bottega Veneta clutch and golden Cartier bracelet have been seen during her days in Rio de Janeiro. Great way to show off how to wear accessories over and over again. Adore it. If you find her dress available somewhere I would really like to hear from you (pre-owned or new), so I'd be able to share the link with everybody else. Thanks. What else do I see? - a few other bracelets and a black lace shawl.

Day 3. Olympics in Rio de Janeiro

Wednesday, August 3rd

The Crown Prince couple are present at different event at the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The royal couple is accompanied by Prince Joachim and Princess Marie, who brought all four children. Crown Prince Frederik attends because he is member of IOC - the International Olympics Committee.

Crown Princess Mary at the presentation of LEGO boxes

Only two days away from the official opening ceremony of the Olympics and the Crown Princess joined the presentation of 5,000 LEGO boxes, which were given to 300 different Brazilian schools that are a part of EDI - Institute for Child Development in the Jacarepague shantytown. Of course she didn't hand over all five thousand boxes herself, but some lucky children got the chance to meet the Crown Princess and get a LEGO box.

The Crown Princess was warmly welcome at the arrival and given a beautiful bouquet of flowers. I think it is sincere joy looking at the pictures, when she hand over the toy boxes to some of the youngest pupils. The smile on their faces is precious. She also listened to speeches and watched a concert with the Danish Radio Girls Choir, who is in Brazil along with a delegation of several Danish companies etc., to promote Denmark and Danish values. To me the best part of her visit was when she took time talking and playing with the children, who really enjoyed her company. She was one big smile.



One of her old goodies. A white dream she purchased in Australia couple of years ago when she was ''home'' on an official visit along with her husband. Since then we have seen her in the WILLOW dress a couple of times, here, here. At first I was sure she was wearing one of her white Hugo Boss dresses but now there is no doubt in my mind, when I tell you it's from WILLOW. Especially because of the characteristic white leather belt wrapping her around her waist. Thrilled to see it again, but what makes me even more excited, is the fact that we get to see such a fine and sophisticated dress worn with a pair of ballet flats. Which by the why are new and because of Heaven I know they are from Prada. If you manage to find a close up of her flats, notice the sweet detail on the white cap toe -a bow and fine stitches. The most elegant way, she styled her outfit with golden jewellery from Dulong Fine Jewelry, Cartier and a magnificent Orit Elhanati necklace. I can't ask for more: an incredible dress perfectly accessorized with classy accessories. Think the reason why I really like this outfit is because she showed us how to dress both sophisticated and elegant and at the same time casual.

Crown Princess Mary met the Danish swimming team




Between her two planned visits in Jacarepague shantytown, where she presented some of the 5,000 LEGO boxes and a gala dinner on board on the Training Ship Denmark in the evening. Suddenly pictures appeared everywhere of the Crown Princess visiting the Danish swimming team during one of their training session before the Olympics. Everything I read, is that everyone was so excited and grateful to met the Crown Princess in Brazil. Danish swimmer Lotte Friis (the woman you see above, next to the Crown Princess) is just one of many from the Danish swimming team who have shared picture of the Crown Princess. To me she seemed in a really good mood; smiling and laughing all the time. I think is was a great honor for the team members to met her and glad she took time to visit them. The Danish royal family also shared a photo on Instagram after the training session, here. All relaxed, it looks like she really enjoyed meeting the athletes.

Nothing fancy about Mary when she met the Danish swimming team during their training session. Completely relaxed and casual dress in a polo shirt, knee length shorts and a pair of sneakers. That's what I think is so great about Mary. No matter what she is wearing, she makes her very best appearance. We have already seen Prince Joachim and Princess Marie wearing clothes from the Danish label Vero Moda - they designed the clothes the Danish athletes wear during the Olympics, and now Mary has to. A dark polo shirt. I haven't been able to find the exact model of her navy blue short, but I see they are from Nike. I think I see a bracelet and a pair of earrings but I can't tell you anything more than that. She accessorized the outfit with her black By Malene Birger sneakers.

The Crown Prince couple, Prince Joachim and Princess Marie attending gala dinner

Around dinner time the Crown Prince couple, Prince Joachim and Princess Marie were invited to attend gala dinner on board the Training Ship Denmark on occasion of the ships arrival to Brazil. Prince Nikolai and his younger brother Prince Felix also attend the dinner. Along with their father and stepmother, the two boys arrived on board the Training Ship Denmark shortly before the Crown Prince couple was sailed out to the ship, which was docked close to the harbor.

Once again the family was gathered, ready for an outstanding evening in each others company. Imagine what an experience it must have been for both Prince Nikolai and Prince Felix. As patron of the Training Ship Denmark Prince Joachim expressed how proud he was to see the ship in the heart of Brazil at this very moment. So why is a Danish ship in Rio de Janeiro? - of course to promote the Danish maritime industry and the Danish-Brazilian cooperation on education. According to Billed Bladet 40 Danish and 40 Brazilian students are trained to become ship's assistants during the Olympics.

Dinner time. This means we had to wait till around midnight before the dinner was actually taking place because of the time difference. Despite we were forced to wait I wasn't disappointed by what I saw - Mary in a brand new colourful maxi skirt. Etro's exotic and playful design. It was identified by Heaven and Kate. Looks like she is almost flying above ground wearing this skirt. Love the way she matched the colourful maxi skirt with a plain white blouse. Accessorized with her silver lurex cardigan from Ann Taylor making it the perfect evening outfit for a Brazilian dinner on board a ship surround by shiny water, mountains and elegant dressed guests. Like the previous days Mary had chosen several bracelets from among others Orit ElhanatiDulong Fine Jewelry and Cartier such as a pair of new earrings. These are still not yet identified. The maxi skirt is the reason why I think Mary looked a little more casual than Marie in her dreamy white mid-length dress. Two beautiful dressed women on their way to attend dinner accompanied by handsome husbands and stepsons. More pictures gave me a chance to identified her shoes as her beige peep toe wedges from Tod's. Still, I do not know anything about the new clutch. Looks pretty and perfectly matched everything else, but I can't identify it.
