Crown Princess Mary during her second day in Moldova

After a fantastic first day in Moldova, Mary was ready for yet another day which started with a visit at the Public Health Institute. Here the Crown Princess was introduced to the Vaccine Cold Chamber.  The visit to the vaccine chamber seemed to have impressed Mary who, afterwards talked to the local and international press. It was with great exciment she told about what she had seen so far. Around noon she attended a lunch along with other United Nations (UN) representatives in Moldova. The lunch was follwed by a very touching visit at The Mother and Child Institute aiming to improve mother and childrens health and well-being. Like everybody else, Mary could not resist the babies. Emotional to all of them I believe. Wonderful pictures from the visit.

Later the Crown Princess payed a visit to the State University of Medicine and Pharmacy where she also held a speech. What makes this a bit more special, especially for Mary and her traveling partner Dr Zsuzsanna Jakab, is that the two of them were announched honorary Doctorate. Dressed in each their special cape and hat, the two women recieved their new title. Congratulations!! In the evening she attended a dinner with representatives from the WHO. Unfortulately I have not been able to find any pictures from that dinner.  


As impressed as I was of her during the day, as impressed am I of what she was wearing. My heart stopped for a second when I saw the grey JOSEPH coat and that printed white Stine Goya blouse. Really magnificent design. And then with the golden leaf brooch from Emmons - it looks simply dazzling. Very clever way to 'spice up' you old winter coat. I am so sure it will cause a stir if you tried it. 

She matched the blouse with black trousers and a pair of still unidentified pointed pumps. I am a little surprised she was not carring any clutch or handbag, think it would have been appropriate. But really, don't we all know that time when we do not need our bag and do not know where to keep it while we are out? I do. What I recognized right away is the earrings. Goodies from Figaros Bryllup. We have not seen them for quite a long time and they look amazing to the rest of her outfit, especially in the combination with the printed Stine Goya blouse. Great to see something we have not seen in a long time. And as always, she completely nailed it! Last, but not least, Mary wore a thing diamond bracelet from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. I love how she mixed and matched rather light colours during late fall. So, what do you say? -Is you as impressed as I am?

Day 1: Visiting Moldova

Wednesday, November 23rd

  • 5:00 pm. Crown Princess Mary attended a meeting with the Moldovan Health Minister in the Ministry of Health.

Crown Princess Mary arriving to Moldova

We are now of to Moldova. I think the Crown Princess arrived by plain around noon, but I haven't been able to figure out what time exactly. She was warmly welcomed with flowers and big smiles. I am sure she had been looking very much forward to visiting Moldova which happened as patron of the WHO European Region. The visit lasts form November 23-25th, so only for three days. It is with WHO Regional Director for Europe Dr Zsuzsanna Jakab she is visiting the country to focus on regional challenges in relation to vaccinations, maternal and child health. Something both women have been working to improve the past years. Now they have the chance once again. 

What is must interesting about the arrival is what Mary was wearing, because as I already told you, I do not have that many pictures nor informations from the arrival. Traveling style is a difficult thing, because you never know what to wear. It need to be something you feel comfortable wearing and at the same time you want to look suitable. Not too much, not too little. I am sure you know the feeling. 

What makes Mary so unique is (also) her traveling-style. No matter what, Mary looks incredibly stylish. This time she was dressed in what I believe is a reused pink lace blouse, here, matched with some kind of grey blouse, black trousers and her amazing grey cashmere coat from JOSEPH. Embracing the style she accessorized her outfit with new burgundy gloves, a matching Hugo Boss handbag, a golden leaf brooch from Emmons and I tend to say of course, red nail polish! See that is one good-looking traveling outfit.

Crown Princess Mary meeting with the Moldovan Health Minister

At 5:00 o'clock, local time, the Danish Crown Princess was ready for her first official meeting during her three days in Moldova. She meet with the Moldovan Health Minister in the Ministry of Health taking place in the capital of Moldova, Chisinau. Here she got her own seat right next to Dr Zsuzsanna Jakab and WHO representative in Moldova Dr Haris Hajrulahovic. The pictures shows a very observant Crown Princess who carefully listened to the conversation. Now and then she participated and shared what she had on mind. Later she met the international press who showed great interest in the Danish Crown Princess. 



I was differently not dissapointed of what I saw when Mary later showed up at the Ministry of Health in Chisinau. She had changed her black trousers to a brand new burgundy A-line skirt and the grey blouse to another new lovely purple blouse featuring long sleeves and beautiful details at front. I was thinking Hugo Boss for both new items, but I still have not been able to find out where it come from. What designers comes to your mind? 

Like at the arrival she looked stunning wearing her grey cashmere coat from JOSEPH decorated with a golden leaf brooch. And if you like following new trends, then here you have one -brooches. All kinds of them. They are often hated by most people but I could not be more happy to see Mary wear one and know that they are one of the most trendy accessories right now. I have always loved brooches and love to wear them on dresses, blouses and like Mary on coats and blazers. Can not get enough of them. This one is absolutely stunning! As other jewellery she wore Dulong Fine Jewelry earrings and two diamond rings from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. Of course then we also have her bracelet, unfortunately I do not know anything about it except from it is a reuse like the burgundy Hugo Boss handbag. I have also found out that she was wearing a pair of bicolor Prada pumps. Nothing else to say than dazzling outfit Mary showed us in Moldova.

Crown Princess Mary at Castel Mimi

Before the dinner took place, the Crown Princess and Dr Zsuzsanna Jakab were given a guided tour around the wine cellar placed under the castel, which seemed to impressed both of them quick a lot. You should think one like Mary was use to rooms like these, but I never really think you get use to it. It will always, somehow, impress you. At first I was sure she visited the wine cellar right before the dinner at Castel Mimi, but it looks like I am completely wrong. 

A reader made me aware that the Crown Princess wore something very different than at the dinner, which of course means that it was taking place more than just half an hour before. Why she chose to change clothes I do not know, because I think both outfits would do great! She had paired a brand new Prada dress in three different colours -black, grey and blue. It is with help from Kate I learned who designed her new dress. Matched with a black Prada coat, earrings I can't identify, her black Carlend Copenhagen clutch and of course red nails;  Mary's look was spot on! NB. you find pictures of her in the wine cellar at Newscom.

Crown Princess Mary attending dinner at Castel Mimi

After a long first day in Moldova it was time for some dinner which took place at Castel Mimi. It was the Health Minister Ruxanda Glavan, whom she met with earlier, who welcomed the guest of honor at the arrival. The room where the dinner was about to take place was beautifully decorated and good music was playing, everything was set for a great evening. Also her traveling partner, Dr Zsuzsanna Jakab, was invited to the fine dinner at Castel Mimi. A perfect way to end a successful day.

Till now we have seen many new pieces and a couple of old. During the dinner at Castel Mimi it was visa versa; only a few new and lots of old goodies. One of them is her black and white Prada dress which she shares with Queen Máxima of the Netherlands. A very simple, but good-looking, dress I think almost everyone would look great wearing. I believe it is a couple of years since we have seen it. Also from Prada we have the black coat. In black she was also wearing a Carlend Copenhagen clutch, SAND Copenhagen pointed pumps and sheer tights. Elegant is the first word that comes to my mind when looking at her outfit from the dinner. Especially because of the red nail polish and white pearl jewellery. I strongly believe both earrings and bracelet are from Dulong Fine Jewelry. To make her outfit even more classy she wore her Carlend Copenhagen clutch. What a day!

Time is running so fast and much has happened for both me and Mary the last week. Now I will try to catch up with everything next couple of days. First we have an unofficial visit to catch up with because on November 22nd the Crown Prince couple enjoyed a day at Fredensborg Castle accompanied by the Queen. With them they had Prince Vincent and his sister Princess Josephine. Think probably the reason why their two older siblings weren't there, is because of school the following day. I am in no doubt they all enjoy the evening together despite the cold. Especially Queen Margrethe seemed to have a wonderful time along with her oldest son and, part of, his family. Think we can call it a tradition for them to gather once a year. It is something they have been doing for many year now and I think Frederik and Mary have attended almost every year.

To keep warm on a cold November evening in Denmark the whole royal family and participants were all dressed in cosy jackets and wearing hats. The Crown Princess was no exception. Do not know if you remember having seen this specific outfit before, but actually we have seen it at a previous occasion in 2014. At that time it was December 26th and the family were invited to Tivoli in Copenhagen by Queen Margrethe to see the Christmas ballet The Nutcracker which the Queen had designed costumes for, here. I have been crazy in love with this look since the first time and I do not love it less now. The whole combination of colours and materials are incredibly fashionable! What she did was quite simple; matched a Alice by Temperley turtleneck sweater with a Zara poncho, tight black leather trousers (yes, what you just read is absolutely correct -leather trousers) and a pair of suede brown heeled boots. Unfortunately, I still do not know where the boots are from. Maybe you got a clue? If so, I would love to hear from you. With a beanie and beige leather gloves featuring fur, I have to call this the ultimate fall outfit!

The Mothers Help's house

Friday, November 18th

Crown Princess Mary attended as patron the official opening of the Mothers Help's house in Copenhagen. 


It was a very special day for the Mothers Help when their patron, Crown Princess Mary, was invited to the official opening of the new Mothers Help's house at Vesterbro in Copenhagen. At the arrival she was in a great mood. I think it's a day Mary had been looking forward to with great excitement because the Mothers Help work with an area as she struggles greatly to improve; women, children and girls. The Mothers Help is an social humanitarian organization that work to support and advise both families, pregnant women and single mothers. Mary has been patron for the organization since 2007 and still is. Mary gave a rather short speech right before she cut the red ribbon with a traditional golden scissor and the new house was officially opened. The opening ceremony was followed by a guided tour where she also met some of the professionals working at the place. A huge and loud congratulations from me to the Mothers Help on behalf of their new facility. 

You can tell that Mary was doing everything to keep warm and stay good-looking when she, as guest of honor, attended the opening of the new Mothers Help's house in Vesterbro, Copenhagen. What she did was match a turtleneck (which I strongly believe is from Heartmade), trousers and a reused Heartmade cape featuring silver embellishment at front; all in black. Heartmade is also the designer of her new ankle boots she was wearing to make her outfit a bit more edgy. I have seen others bloggers mentioning several other models, but I am pretty sure these are new. Take a look here and make up your mind, maybe I'm able to convince you. Especially notice the decorated low heel. What I know of this is her third pair of black boots decorated with studs and I quite like the style of each and every one of them, though I don't think Mary really manage to wear them... properly. I would love to see them and not hidden underneath trouser legs. What do you think? Am I completely wrong.
  So lovely that she was wearing both red nail polish and berry red lipgloss! Makes everything look even more dazzling. Shining as her eyes was the new diamond earrings which I believe could be from Hartmann's without knowing it for sure. The style reminds me a lot of another pair of her Hartmann's earrings. I also noticed a diamond ring in the center of two other rings from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. A combination we have seen a million times before that never become outdated. Makeup, hair and accessories are what makes me adore this look.
