American Chamber of Commerce's 25th anniversary

10 October 2024

American Chamber of Commerce in Denmark - or AmCham Denmark, celebrated their 25th anniversary as a non-profit business representing more than 230 companies from both America, Danish and internationally. These companies have investments in both Denmark and the United States. AmCham is part of the international AmCham-network existing in more than 100 countries.

King Frederik and Queen Mary attended the celebration as guests of honor. The anniversary dinner took place at Moltke's Palace in Copenhagen. The King and Queen were not the only ones invited. Among the guests were also Danish Minister of the Interior and Health Sophie Løhde, Minister of Business Morten Bødskov and the US Ambassador in Denmark Alan Leventhal.

Lately, I think Mary has switched from amazing and outstanding outfits to a little odd combinations. Do you get what I mean? Like her outfit at the evening banquet on October 8th. That was a bit strange. Visiting Brazil earlier this months, she looked super chic!

This evening at the AmCham dinner, Mary looked absolutely smashing in her reused velvet gown created by Jesper Høvring. Just look at the details. It's so simple, yet so detailed. I love the splash of colour. Makes the dress even more classy.

Mary styled the dress with shiny golden earrings from Rebekka Notkin and a couple of bracelets from the same talented Danish designer. Rebekka Notkin's jewellery are wonderful! Mary was also wearing a diamond ring and bracelet from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen.

The yellow satin Yves Saint Laurent clutch is such a clever move. It matches perfectly the dress. We get a glimpse of her black patent Gianvito Rossi pumps. Also worn the previous day.

How do we rate this outfit? 1-10

Day 2. Officiel visit from Norway

16 June 2023

AARHUS

Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary accompanied King Harald and Queen Sonja in Aarhus on Friday (here). The couple have traveled all the way from Oslo to attend an official visit in Denmark.

The Crown Prince Couple attended the opening of business conference and a dinner the previous day (here) and thereby accompanied Queen Margrethe, King Harald and Queen Sonja.

The royal couple arrived in Aarhus by Dannebrog - the royal yacht (here). In Aarhus, they joined the King and Queen of Norway for a business conference at DOKK1, a meeting with Norwegian students and Denmark and had official lunch at Aarhus City Hall.

Before leaving Aarhus, they attended "LiteratureXchange" - a literature festival.

What is not to like? Mary looked like the most incredible bouquet of flowers in that brand new Erdem dress. I am truly impressed. Her new dress is so beautiful. The details are exquisite. The pleatings, the neckline, the belt and soft sheer sleeves.

She embraced the style of her new dress with a reused hairband purchased from Miss Haidee Millinery. Mary first wore this stunning hairpiece at the celebration of the 75th anniversary of the ordination of women to the priesthood in April 2023 (here). She matched it with smashing Gianvito Rossi pumps made of python. Even the clutch matched. This is still unidentified.

The fine diamond earrings and one of her rings are also still unidentified, which is quite impressive because both earrings and ring have been in her wardrobe for many years. Still no clue. The other diamond bands are from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen.

RECEPTION 

The previous day, Queen Margrethe hosted a dinner at Amalienborg. The following day, King Harald and Queen Sonja hosted a reception on board the royal ship Norway (here).

Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary attended the reception.

At the arrival, they were warmly welcomed by the Regal Couple. Wonderful to see the four of them together.

Mary was beautifully dressed in a reused floral dreamy blouse from Giambattista Valli matched with new white trousers. She first wore this blouse when celebrating Crown Prince Frederik's 50th birthday (here). I hope to identify her new trousers, because they are incredibly beautiful.

She styled the outfit with a lovely hairdo showing magnificent golden earrings from Rebekka Notkin. These earrings are also worn before. Like, when the couple presented "The Crown Prince Couple's Prizes 2019" (here). Her golden bangle is also a reused creation from Rebekka Notkin.

We get a glimpse of a beloved 'F'-necklace as well. It is from Halberstadt.

The yellow Yves Saint Laurent clutch goes back to 2009 (here). It was truly love a first sight. I really adore this clutch. Mainly because of the color.

She had chosen reused golden Malone Souliers pumps. I was never really a huge fan of these pumps, but Mary wears them with such elegance.

The Carlsberg Foundations Research Awards 2019

01 September

As guest of honor, Crown Princess Mary attended the Carlsberg Foundations Research Awards 2019 and following dinner. The honoring took place at the legendary Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek - an art  museum build by Carlsbergs founder, Carl Jacobsen. He was a passioned collector of both antique and modern art. A magnificent place, here.

The Crown Princess was welcomed welcomed by, among others, Ane Halboe-Jørgensen. She is the new Minister of Education and Science. Later in the evening both women entered the stage and presented the two Carlsberg awards.

For quite a few year the Crown Princess has been a regular person on the guest list. I believe she first attended the event in 2013, here. Since then she has been invited to hand over two research awards to scientists who have contributed with decisively scientific research results. According to the Royal House the awards are given to both natural sciences- and a humanist/social science researcher. This year Crown Princess Mary handed over the awards to Thomas Kiørboe, Professor ogf Microscipic Life at Sea and Mikael Rask Madsen, Professor of European Law and integration. Congratulations to both of them!

Along with the honor both winners are given 250,000 Danish kroner as a personal rewards and furthermore 750,000 Danish kroner to their research.

What a night it was, when Mary attended the presentation of the Carlsberg Foundations Research Awards at Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek. The scene was set when she arrived in the most gorgeous outfit. We have seen this outfit before, but not at an official event. In July of 2018 the royal couple attended a friends wedding and here Mary showed up wearing almost exactly the same outfit at on Sunday September 1st. She matched a blouse and a maxi skirt to make it look like a dress. The two-piece are from Diane von Furstenberg. Think it is clever of her to wear it as a dress. Looks just lovely. What do you think of her "dress"?

She embraced the evening look with a Dolce & Gabanna belt featuring large red rhinestones. Somehow this combo works perfectly. If you think about it the colors are quite odd, but Mary rocked that combination of rusty orange and shiny red.

I am sure you noticed her huge and eye-catching earrings. So did I. She first wore them when visiting the European Council in Strasbourg in 2017, here. Later again at the friends wedding. They are a unique pair of Kharisma earrings made by Dulong Fine Jewelry. Can't imagine who expensive they are with all the gold, diamonds and precious stones. Incredible design. One of her bracelets is also from that jewellery designer. The other golden bangle is from Cartier.

Another golden accessory is her heeled sandals. Did you see them? Gosh they are stunning. These were also worn at the friends wedding last year. Now Elena managed to identify the sandals as Aquazzura, here. Note that the model is name Josephine as her youngest daughter. Coincidence? But and amazing finding. Suddenly I wish I had a pair of golden sandals in my wardrobe. To top off her look Mary wore a reused (yellow) clutch from Yves Saint Laurent. To me Mary looked like a true goddess - with hair and makeup and all. Outstanding.

After all, it is quite a couple of days ago the celebration of King Carl Gustav of Sweden celebrated his 70th birthday. Time has not been on my side until now. I have followed the events closely and are now ready to share everything with you.
Royals from all over the world, were gathered in Sweden to celebrate the kind. From the Danish royal family attended Queen Margrethe, the Crown Prince couple and Princess Benedikte. All of them stayed at Dannebrog, which docked the previous day before the big celebration. From what I know, the Crown Prince couple didn't arrived along with the Queen and her sister. Nevertheless, the couple were in a great mood meeting the press on the red carpet. The couple stood first raw to congratulate the swedish king on his birthday, who arrived along with his beautiful wife Queen Silvia. They really seem to have a great time accompanied by, among others Princess Märtha Louise and Princess Benedikte. The swedish people's celebration was followed by a lunch for friends and family at the town hall in Stockholm. Maybe you even watched it all on TV? When I searched for pictures, I discovered a wonderful moment of the Crown Princess and Princess Estelle (daughter of Princess Victoria of Sweden and Prince Daniel), which was caught on camera. The Crown Princess asked for a picture of her and her goddaughter. Prince Daniel captured the moment. Pictures of her, Crown Princess Victoria, little Prince Oscar and Crown Prince Frederik were also captured on her phone. Couple of days ago, a picture of Prince Daniel, Crown Princess Mary and Jan-Ove Waldner appeared online, here. A day where many new memories were created and captured to remember in the future.

Already from the morning I think we have seen some incredible outfits. Lots of pastel colors. Mary really also impressed me with what she was wearing. Nothing says fashionable, as the right coat. Despite we have seen the exact same outfit at a previous event, when the king and queen of the Netherlands visited Denmark back in 2015, here, I love everything about her look. She rocked it all over again. The wonderful caramel coat is an Oscar de la Renta design and matched everything else perfectly. Surprisingly, Mary didn't wear anything pastel as most of the other invited royal ladies. We never know what to expect from her. A little pastel color would have matched the white Prada (collection: RTW SS15) dress very much. The dress features some great details - red stitching. Love to have seen the dress without the coat for just a minute. With accessory and all I get a 50s vibe, when looking at her outfit. Especially, because of the purple Jane Taylor hat featuring feathers and rhinestones. She embrace the style by wearing purple leather gloves, a Carlend Copenhagen clutch and Christian Louboutin pumps. She even wore a few diamond jewellery and a large brooch. Everything just looked absolutely great.

Crown Prince Frederik & Crown Princess Mary attending gala dinner at the royal palace

Before attending the gala dinner at the royal palace in Stockholm the Danish royal family members spend some time on their on at Dannebrog. Probably getting ready for the dinner. At dinner time, the four royals went off board and was met by the most incredible sunny weather. The sun almost kissed their faces. Royalty from both Sweden, Norway, the Netherlands, Belgium etc. arrived one by one, as well as the royal guests from Denmark. They were all warmly welcomed by the host himself. I haven't been able to find any pictures from inside the palace, but that is probably not etiquette in Sweden. I don't know for sure. We only have pictures from the arrival and welcoming. From everything I have been able to find out, then the Danish royal couple really enjoyed themselves during the evening at the royal palace in Sweden. Bet a fine dinner was served as well as good wine.

Personally, I am always very excited to see what everybody are wearing for a dinner like this. Both Crown Princess Victoria and her sister Princess Madeleine are always beautifully dressed. Non of them are afraid of trying something new and often wears marvelous evening gowns. At the dinner the two royal sisters wore smashing gowns from Elise Saab. And Princess Märtha Louise's gown was stunning with the one should cap sleeve and rather long train. Queen Mathilda of Belgium also wore a magnificent purple gown. I could go on for hours about these dresses. The press announced Queen of the night and to me that can be no-one else than Mary in unexpected floral gown. She wore the most wonderful silk organza gown created by YDE Copenhagen (collection: SS15). The dress features a peplum and cap sleeves, not to mention the beautiful floral print. Anyone who told Mary that this years biggest trend is yellow? She matched this new floral dream with suede Gianvito Rossi pumps and her Yves Saint Laurent clutch. All in yellow. After staring at her dress for about an hour, I came to the conclusion that both hairpiece, earrings and ring are all new and created by one of the most talented jewellery designer we have in Denmark Charlotte Lynggaard from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen.

The couple had spend the night at Dannebrog, as Queen Margrethe and Princess Benedikte did. Casual dressed and in a great mood, the two of them left the royal yacht. The Crown Princess was wearing her lovely white Temperley London turtleneck sweater and a pair of shades. Her husband impressed in a simple white shirt, a blazer and a blue scarf.

Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary during their day in Toronto

We are now on the second day and already half way through the official state visit to Canada. Today was just great and I really enjoyed seeing the couple together. Most of today they also spend in each others company. The day started with the opening of Danish Business Delegation in Canada. Couple of hours later, Frederik and Mary attended the award ceremony of HRH Prince Henrik's medal which was handed over to the winner by the Crown Prince himself. Their second day in Toronto mostly focused on topics like healthcare and fashion, all though these two things has not much in common. For example, Around noon Mary visited the Danish Style -Sneak Peak 2015. Here she was presented to several jewellery, clothes and shoe companies, which were more than delighted to show Mary their designs. The royal couple also payed a visit to the Art Gallery of Ontario, such as the Crown Prince visited the Canadian and Danish Design Collaboration.

At their second day, now in Toronto, Mary showed up in a navy blue outfit were most of it are reused. The figure hugging dress is from the Danish brand SAND Copenhagen (Fall 2012) such as the short navy blue jacket. Really a beautiful colour next to her fair skin and brownish hair colour. On her right arm, she was wearing a fantastic black pearl bracelet made by the talented Marianne Dulong. Right next to it, we have the gold Shamballa Jewels bracelet featuring a pink diamond ball. It is and looks very expensive. One thing made me completely thrilled, the silver Georg Jensen watch featuring shiny diamonds! I know I will never be able to pay that myself, but a girl is allowed to dream. So far we have only seen her wear it on state visits like these, never on an occasion in Denmark. Wonder why? She also wore some other jewellery from among others Marianne Dulong, Hartmanns and Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. The last time Mary wore these navy blue suede pumps, I tried to make it clear that I was mistaken when I assumed they are from Gianvito Rossi. I started to question it when I was not able to find the right model. Now, after quite some time, I know I was wrong about Rossi. In fact her pumps are from Pura Lopez. She beautifully embraced the style by wearing her grey Quidam clutch which has finally been identified once and for all. What makes this outfit even more magnificent is her hairstyle, isn't that absolutely stunning?!

Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary attending dinner

A couple of hours after the Crown Prince couple had their last event attending the presentation of Danish Active Houses, it was time for dinner which took place in the most beautiful decorated rooms at the Royal Ontario Museum. Everyone invited to the dinner, held on occasion of the Danish Royal couple's state visit in Canada, were warmly welcomed by Frederik and Mary at the arrival. The couple were also kindly welcomed when they arrived to the Royal Ontario Museum. Only a few pictures have been published from the dinner. I think it took place more or less behind closed doors, which is why the press weren't allowed during the dinner. Makes great sense to me. I hope they all enjoyed the evening with great food and good entertainment.

I really love that Mary had chosen to wear anything else than a little black dress. They are indeed appropriate, but can also be a bit boring when you know Mary. Like a true movie star, Mary was wearing her YDE Copenhagen creation made of the most incredible fabric. And yes, the identity of the dress has been confirmed. Her beautiful hairstyle, gave us the opportunity to get a very good view of the drop earrings featuring two colour stones and diamonds. We first saw them when the couple visited Poland. At that time I was so sure they came from Jewlscph, but that has been proven to be wrong. I have not always been a huge fan of two colour earrings, but I love the way these matched the rest of the outfit. Mary embrace the style with a yellow Yves Saint Laurent clutch and her golden Shamballa Jewels bracelet. When I noticed the shoes I was really surprised to see that she wore glitter leopard pumps from Gianvito Rossi (pre AW12). Smashing detail! Wauw. This is way better than any little black dress.

Crown Princess Mary during her second day in Poland

Not like yesterday, the couple had several places to visit on their own. The both started early, ready to spend one more day in Poland. While Frederik attended a 20th anniversary of Lantmännen Unibake, Mary visited a seminar on lifestyle diseases and on that occasion she visited a hospital, followed by a visit at Synapsis Foundation Therapeutic Kindergarden for children with Autism. With a huge smile on her face she arrived to the kindergarten and was welcomed by children with gifts to the Princess coming all the way from Denmark and was now visiting them. Mary seemed to enjoy spending some time with the children, who was a bit shy meeting her. About an hour later she visited LEGO and New Horizon Foundation's children's film festival meanwhile Frederik attended a debate about energy followed by a debate on diabetes. After her visit at the film festival Mary attended the opening of a design exhibition, a conference on Enhancing Quality of Life and visited an ECCO, Pandora and Ole Lynggaard flagship store.

With what she wore yesterday I admit I've had high expectation to what she would be wearing today. After ten years I doubt Mary will every disappoint me and she didn't! Darker colours than yesterday but simply smashing. Both blouse and pencil skirt are reused pieces. If I'm right, the skirt is a part of a navy blue suit (here, here, here) worn in around 2006, 2008 and 2012. But the skirt is for sure not the first thing you notice about her outfit, it has to be the paisley printed blouse from Axara Paris. Right? Despite we have seen it once before, I think it looks completely new because she wore it with a slim pencil skirt. That I hadn't seen coming. Just great! Think this outfit would do great in Autumn as well. In the same colour combo as the rest of the outfit Mary was wearing a pair of new earrings which I haven't been able to ID yet. The style reminds me so much of Jewlscph but I can't seem to find the right one. Any other ideas? Think they really lovely and it looks good with the hairdo. Btw was the earrings the only new piece she wore during her second day. Never mind, you probably already knew that. Perfectly matching, Mary dazzled in a pair of beige Christian Louboutin pumps and expensive quilted Chanel handbag. What is not to love about this? Feminine, classy and fun. Oh... not to forget her Shamballa Jewels bracelet and Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen diamond rings.

Crown Prince Frederik & Crown Princess Mary attending a reception at the Embassy

After a long day separated from each other, the couple attended a reception at the Danish Ambassador in Warsaw. I just have to say this; the Crown Prince couple makes a great couple! Arriving side by side to the Danish Embassy in Poland, they makes me so proud and happy. They both look great and seems to enjoying themselves. Standing next to each other they greeted each and everyone who had been invited. Several times during the session Frederik and Mary were laughing and having fun with the guests. Down on earth as always which is really why we just love them so much, all without compromising who they are and what role they play as part of the royal family.

The second I saw Mary arriving to that reception at the Danish Embassy I was taken breathless... I am as surprised and amazed whether she's wearing new or reused piece of clothes but when we get a whole new outfit, never seen before, well that is special. I love how she managed to pair two rather eye catching items this good. Makes me want to try something similar. According to Billed Bladet her new beaded blouse is from Ralph Lauren (Ralph Lauren Collection). A simple design but still very interesting featuring a beaded collar as a statement necklace. Think it is the first time we see her with that kind of "necklace", isn't it? After this I would love to see her wear that size necklaces again. With help from the sweetest readers in the world I now know that the metallic pencil skirt is from SAND Copenhagen. Thanks everybody! I like how her clothes is center of attention and she wearing small jewelleries. Then she dazzled wearing a bright yellow Yves Saint Laurent clutch that makes me want a yellow clutch right away and of course a pair of black Gianvito Rossi pumps. Of all my heart I hope to see these pieces some day again. Last we have her incredible hairdo. Seems to be one of her favourites these days. Making a chignon is pretty easy and there are a million ways to create them. I have found some that'll maybe inspire you to try them out, here. 

This is really a perfect way to end a day.

INDEX Award 2013 in Copenhagen

Crown Princess Mary attended the INDEX Award in Copenhagen. This is the world's largest design award and Crown Princess Mary handed over five award to the sum of €100,000.

This was a really surprising outfit, to see the purple Prada dress was amazing! I think Mary really surprised us with this outfit. Wearing her bright purple dress she was given the title as the best dressed woman at the INDEX award. What a title to get and I really think she deserves it. I'm not sure I would have chosen the same accessories as she did but why not? Sometimes life is too short to wear 'safe' clothes, it is fun to mix and match prints, colours and wear clothes again years later and see how your style have developed. This is exactly what I think when I see her in this particular dress. My guess is that she wore it the first time in around 2008 or 2009 on a visit to... somewhere in the world (Thailand?). At that time her style was very classic and feminine, these two words really described what she was wearing and how. Today Mary is a embracing a more modern style and she's playing with colours and prints lately. This is a great example. I have never been able to find her violet/purple dress as a model but the Hollywood star Kirsten Davis has been seen in the exact same one identified as Prada. Her hairstyle is also eye-catching and if you love it as much as I do and is ready for a challenge you find a similar up do right here! Good luck everybody. 

When I finally stopped staring at the stunning dress and her hair my eyes caught her glittering pointed pumps. They might be one of the reasons why she was given the title as the best dressed because shoes is really something that create a woman and show who she is. By wearing these Gianvito Rossi (Pre-A/W 2012) glitter pumps, with a print of leopard, Mary gave me the sense of independence and... girl power! Unbelievable that a pair of shoes can tell so much. This entire outfit  shone of independence and confidence. Royal Outfit of Crown Princess Mary identified the glitter leopard pumps, thank you so much for the help! Because they are from his Pre-A/W 2012 collection they are no longer available, so if you are interested you might find them pre-owned. With the satin yellow Yves Saint-Laurent well I'm amazed. In the same glitter effect she wore expensive Jewelscph earrings. With this outfit Mary takes the classic princess-look to a entire new level! Please, Mary show us more of this.
