Crown Princess Mary is writing history

02 October

It was a huge day on October 2nd for both Crown Princess Mary, her mother-in-law, her husband and for Danish history. From now on the Crown Princess can work as regent if and when Queen Margrethe is, for instance, not around. The decision of making her regent was adopted on at a state council meeting on Wednesday. During the same meeting, she gave her signature and with that she accepted to comply with the Danish Constitution (called Grundlov).

Today, Crown Prince Frederik is the first to take over his mothers duties. But Prince Joachim and Princess Benedikte (and now Crown Princess Mary) are able to take on the Queen's obligations. Crown Princess Mary you are now one step closer to learn what it takes to become Queen of Denmark. She deserves to be congratulated, right? So congratulations from all of us to the Crown Princess with her new title.

Becoming regent she had chosen to match the table cloth just like her mother-in-law. Apparently it is time for us to wear bright red clothes. Mary's dress is a long-sleeved midi dress from Dolce & Gabbana, here. She also wore stunning diamond earrings.

Opening of the Parliament 2019

01 October

As an annual tradition, the royal family were gathered at Christiansborg Castle to attend the opening of the Danish Parliament. Princess Benedikte arrived first followed by Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary. Last, Queen Margrethe arrived and were welcomed with smiles, handshakes and flowers (of course). Usually, Prince Joachim and his wife Princess Marie also participate but as you know they have moved to France and were not able to be part of the opening.

The first Tuesday of October the Parliament officially comes back from vacation. It is marked with the gathering of the Parliament and Government present. And of course with the Royal family attending. This year was a bit special because Denmarks newly selected Prime Minister, Mette Frederiksen held her very first speech in Folketinget.

Both Princess Benedikte, the Crown Prince Couple and Queen Margrethe watched the opening from the balcony. It is located right of the rostrum.

These annual events are personal favorites of mine. I love comparing outfit; one from each year. That is why I, primarily, look forward to the opening - to see and compare Mary's outfit with previous years. I am rarely disappointed with how she looks. Nor was I this year. Mary was beautifully dressed in one of her reused coats and matching accessories. The stunning dusty pink coat is a design by Claes Iversen. She first wore it in 2018 on an official visit to Latvia, here. Back then you were all crazy in love with the coat. I still am.

As in 2018 she accessorized the coat with a splendid matching creation from Susanne Juul. Love how the two pieces match in both color and style. Really vintage chic. Mary also dazzled with her other accessories. Especially the burgundy Sergio Rossi box clutch and those incredible suedes pointed pumps from Gianvito Rossi. One day I have to own my own pair of Rossi pumps. They have what I would call "the perfect shape". Everything about Rossi's shoes are cared for. So one day...

The diamond ring and beautiful bracelet are both created by Dulong Fine Jewelry. Also her makeup looked absolutely perfect, such as her hairstyle. I adore when she have these updos. Makes me wanna experiment. These chignon's or twisted knots comes in many different forms. This is a more simple one. Great for everyday as well as evenings. Do you have a favorite updo?

The supreme court seated at Christiansborg for 100 years

30 September

Another great day at work. Crown Princess Mary attended as guest of honor the day where the Supreme Court celebrated its 100th anniversary being seated at Christiansborg Castle. Celebrating the anniversary took place at Thorvaldsens Museum - an art museum located in Copenhagen.

The Royal House writes on this occasions that Christianborg Castle has burned to the grown on two different occasions. It was rebuild for the second time in 1928. Nine years prior, the Danish Supreme Court inaugurated their headquarters in premises that were already completed. This is why the Supreme Court now celebrates its 100th anniversary seated at Christiansborg Castle.

All 18 judges of the Supreme Court and representatives from the legal, political and cultural part of the Danish public life where gathered at Thorvaldsens Museum to celebrate the big day along with the Crown Princess. Seems like she was in a really splendid mood. Especially at the arrival. A few pictures have also been published from inside the reception and Crown Princess Mary is in a great mood - all smiles.

Celebrating the Supreme Court, Mary were beautifully dressed in one of my favorite colors: burgundy. If you have to wear just one color to celebrate Fall is coming, then it has to be this specific color. Maybe you feel it - I just love this particular color. And then Mary chose to wear a complete outfit that all match from head to toe. The stunning blouse is from Prada and the skirt is still to be found. Maybe also Prada??

Actually this is a pretty easy outfit to replicate. Find your very best shirt and an a-line skirt. Add a few accessories like a clutch, earrings and a pair of heels. That's it. Taking about accessories. I am sure you also noticed her stunning two-tone earrings. She has worn them before, but I never managed to find them. I am still trying to figure out where they can be found. Let me know if you have any ideas. What I know for sure, is that her burgundy suede clutch is a Hugo Boss creation. If I am correct this is the tenth time she's wearing it. Mary first showed of this clutch at The World Congress of the European Association for Palliative Care in 2015, here.

Mary also embraced her outfit by wearing a bracelet and a diamond ring from Dulong Fine Jewelry. The outstanding shoes of hers are a reuse from Prada. She looked all comfortable and super classy at the celebration, don't you think?

Crown Princess Mary's bridge is inaugurated

28th September

It was a very special day, when Crown Princess Mary arrived to Frederikssund on Saturday. The Crown Princess was about to inaugurate a newly built bridge - her very own bridge. Or at least it is named after her. The bridge now connect the vest and north of Sjælland, and is crossing Roskilde Fjord.

The Crown Princess was in a splendid mood when arriving to Frederikssund. Despite the weather not showing the best of what we call Danish Fall weather, she was one big smile. We get why, right? How often do you get to open your very own bridge? Not often. Around 10,000 people had showed up to participate the inauguration. By participate, I mean literally participate. As part of the inauguration the 10,000 attendances would either walk or run a one mile, 5 kilometers or cross the bridge in a 10 kilometers walk or run. The Crown Princess chose to walk one mile - yes in 100mm heeled shoes.

Right from the beginning, people wanted her attention. All wanted a picture and a handshake, and that is what they got. Crown Princess Mary took plenty of time to talk with and meet many of the attendances.

If I have had the chance to show up and get a picture of her, I would by no doubt have done that. Especially because she wore the more incredible outfit. Mary wore exactly what to wear when you open a bridge named after you. And she really looked outstanding in that red and navy blue color combo. At Royal Fashion Blog I learned that she was in fact wearing a Harris Wharf London coat, here. I turns out that it is not a new coat. I believe she has worn it before, among others, at the Women Deliver conference 2019 on June 5th, here. The stunning brooch is new and with a little help it was found on Ebay at Crystalitzy. The red dress is also a reuse. It comes from Michael Kors. I had completely forgotten about this dress until Kate reminded me that Mary has such a dress. Love that she matched the large bow.

I am sure you also noticed her wonderful new fascinator. It is really elegant and stylish. Can not wait to see how she is going to wear it in the future. Kate managed to identify this new piece as a creation from Jane Taylor. Imagine to find ones design on top of that head of hers? The new fascinator is a perfect match to the rest of her outfit, just as the stunning new Jimmy Choo pumps. A lovely pair of navy blue suede pumps. Great pair of shoes for winter time that is just around the corner.

Carlend Copenhagen also proudly shared that Mary was wearing one of their blue python clutched by the name of Aicha. A stunning new piece to her huge collection of bags and clutches. The beautiful floral shaped diamond earrings were once purchased on an Bruun Rasmussen Auction. They still look absolutely magnificent despite we have seen them on several previous occasions. This is one very good-looking Crown Princess, right?!
