Day 3. Business promotion visit in Paris

09 October

It has been some really amazing days already for the Crown Prince Couple and for the rest of us following them on they visit in Paris. From October 7-9th the couple has been staying in Paris along with a Danish business delegation. The promotion visit was all about sharing ideas and knowledge about healthcare and energy.

Wednesday morning Crown Prince Frederik started the day by visiting Station F.  It is a campus for entrepreneurship. Here tech-companies are gathered to discuss development and realization of future projects. He was given a guided tour by Xavier Niel, the founder of Station F. Later on he visited the French Ministry of Economy and Finance.

While the Crown Prince, his wife payed a visit to a very special lady - Mrs. Brigitte Macron. The meeting took place at Lycée Lamartine (a school of general and technological education). One thing unique about the school is that it teaches Danish. So if any of you would like to learn Danish Lamartine is the place to go. Mrs. Macron and Crown Princess Mary have met before and it seems like the two of them are getting along really well. Anyway, it seems like they enjoyed each others company visiting Lycée Lamartine. The Danish Girls Choir, who entertained the previous night at the City Hall, had also found their way to the French school.

For her to wear that berry burgundy color is a clear sign to me that Fall has arrived. And it has. The weather in Denmark is everything from sunny, rainy and windy - also at the same time. Fortunately the weather was way better in Paris. Still Mary had chosen darker colors and heavier fabrics. She embraced a great outfit by wearing a knitted CO blouse and a red tweed skirt from Alexander McQueen. Both pieces have been seen on previous occasions before, but never together. I kinda like how this look turned out. Love the combo of different fabrics.

She styled her rather simple outfit with lots of incredible jewellery and other accessories. I really like when she wears all these delicate jewellery. Makes it more casual. The stunning golden diamond earrings are from Sophie Bille Brahe. Two out of three bracelets are created by Dulong Fine Jewelry, while the last one is her golden bangle from Cartier. Mary also stunned wearing two rings - one from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen and the other one is a Dulong Fine Jewelry design.

For sure you noticed how she matched skirt, clutch and pumps, right? Love when she makes these color-combos. Both the suede Hugo Boss clutch and Gianvito Rossi pumps are old. The pumps was first worn at DANSK Design Talent - The Magasin Prize in 2016, here. Mary wore the pumps with her Stine Goya evening gown. The clutch goes back to 2015 at the opening of the 14th World Congress of the European Association for Palliative Care, here.

Day 2. Business promotion visit in Paris

08 October

During the day 

The Crown Prince Couple were on a three day visit in Paris with business delegation consisting of representatives from 50 different Danish companies. The promotion visit focuses on, among other things, sharing knowledge in the field of healthcare and energy, which is why the visit is entitled "Denmark and France - together for a better life and a sustainable future".

The couple were separated most day. Not until the evening the couple were on their own. First thing in the morning Crown Prince Frederik attended the French National Assembly, Assemblée Nationale. He then sailed to Île Séguin. Today Île Séguin is a urban development project. Later on the Crown Prince attended a seminar on vindpower in Cæur Défense. In the afternoon he visited the urban development conference "Development of Greater Paris". This is just some of the events Crown Prince Frederik attended on Tuesday.

Meanwhile, Crown Princess Mary payed a visit to the nursing home Korian Monceau that is part of the Korian Group - the largest provider of private care services in Europe. The occupant of the nursing home clearly enjoyed their visit from Denmark. Later on the Crown Princess participated the seminar "Purchasing and innovations" in the Danish church in Paris. She gave a speech at the event. Before visiting Les Peupliers (a private hospital), she had lunch at the Danish restaurant Flora Danica located in Danmarkshuset.

I did not hide that I really (really) loved her outfits the first day in Paris. The wonderful blue dress with the white details and the new dotted evening dress, here. The following day, Mary impressed my one more time. She was dressed in her incredible custom-made Mark Kenly Domino Tan dress, here. A wonderful creation featuring the most amazing details. Just look at those sleeves. We first saw the dress on another business promotion visit to Italy in 2018, here. She belted the dress with that stylish navy blue Max Mara belt.

As jewellery she had chosen first of all, a pair of reused diamond earrings from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. They are from my favorite collection called Winter Frost. The three beautiful bracelets are also old and are from Dulong Fine Jewelry, Cartier and Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. The last one is styled with a moonstone charm from the same designer. Mary also embraced the chic style by wearing expensive diamond rings from Dulong Fine Jewelry and Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen.

Mary is fan of matching things with each other - especially in colors. That is probably why she chose to wear her medium size handbag from Prada and stunning patent leather pumps from Gianvito Rossi. One day I got to have my own pair of Rossi shoes. Does any of you have a pair of Rossi pumps?

Evening dinner

After a long day in Paris the Crown Prince Couple attended dinner in the City Hall, Hôtel de Ville. At the dinner another very special couple also attended. That couple were Prince Joachim and Princess Marie, who are now currently living in France with their children. Both couples seemed in a wonderful spirit both because of the atmosphere and because of them meeting again.

All guests and the four royals were welcomed by and entertained by the Danish Girls Choir which Crown Princess Mary has become patron for, not that long ago. The dinner was hosted by the Danish ambassador in France, Michael Starbæk Christensen. He also welcomed the couple's.

Princess Marie was wearing an incredible black dress. From what I have heard it is a reuse. Mary embrace the dinner by wearing a brand new dress from Moss & Spy. I am not sure how to describe what I see other than: I absolutely love everything about both the new lace dress and the whole outfit. Everything looks so very put together. The elegant of her look is not to describe. What a dress. What an outfit.

What made this such a great outfit is also because of the accessories she had chosen. Even the hairstyle is an accessory that is worth noticing. A large knot decorated with a rhinestone hairpin. The stunning floral shaped earrings featuring shiny diamonds have been purchased on an Bruun Rasmussen Auction. Beautiful. As earlier, Mary wore her Dulong Fine Jewelry and golden Cartier bangle. A really lovely combo. The diamond ring is also from Dulong Fine Jewelry.

She also wore a huge aquamarine blue ring and a matching delicate bracelet. If I am correct, the ring is a gift from her husband that goes quit a few years back in time. But I could be wrong about that. Seems like Mary enjoyed wearing the blue and white combo. So in the evening she also embodied the combination with an old box clutch from Prada and silk pumps from Gianvito Rossi. Imagine wearing silk pumps.

Day 1. Business promotion visit in Paris

07 October

During the day

Quite a while ago it was announced that Crown Prince Frederik and his wife, Crown Princess Mary were going on a business promotion visit to Paris on October 7-9th.

The couple arrived in the morning along with a Danish business delegation. The 50 Danish businesses and organisations that are part of the delegation is in Paris to participate the business promotion visit. This year the visit is entitled 'Denmark and France - together for a better life and a sustainable future' and focuses on energy, sustainable cities and health. The Danish court announced  that especially elderly care, “smart hospitals” and “life science” as well as wind energy, district heating and urban development are the main focus.

First the Crown Prince Couple attended the official opening of the visit at La Grande Arche - a new Triumphal Arch designed by the Danish architect, Johan Otto von Spereckelsen. The Crown Prince held the opening speech wearing chic new glasses. They then attended at meet and greet with the participating Danish delegation.

In the afternoon did Crown Prince Frederik visited the French company, EDF Group which is the largest producer of electricity in France. He then visited the district heating manufacturer Dalkia's showroom and he attended the 30th anniversary celebration of La Grande Arch. Meanwhile did Crown Princess Mary visit the Georges-Pompidou hospital. One of the biggest public hospitals in Paris.

What and incredible outfit. I am so much in love with Mary in that brand new bright blue dress. Look at those magnificent details. The covered buttons, short sleeves, neckline. I am stunned by this new dress. The wonder is a custom-made designed by Ole Yde, here, and according to Billed-Bladet, created by Birgit Hallstein. Can't hide my enthusiasm. Mary's dress (and outfit) is simply beautiful.

She embraced the style with a white pearl bracelet from Dulong Fine Jewelry. It comes with matching earrings, but Mary had chosen to wear another pair of diamond earrings featuring a pearl pendant. Both earrings and pearl bracelet, such as all the other jewellery, are reused pieces. Mary matched her white pearls with a golden Cartier bangle and another golden bangle from Dulong Fine Jewelry. Also the two stunning diamond rings are worn on numerous occasions.

As other accessories Mary wore her quality leather clutch from Quidam. A beautiful match because of the lovely navy blue colors. The same goes with the Gianvito Rossi pumps. I get it if you adore her outfit as much as I do.

Reception

Around dinner time the Crown Prince Couple arrived to La Grande Arche (for the second and third time that day) to attend a reception on occasion of the 30th anniversary of the very same monument. Crown Prince Frederik had already earlier that day attended another event on occasion of the anniversary.

Both Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary were in a splendid mood. They really seemed comfortable in each others company. To the press Crown Prince Frederik expressed what a wonderful day it had already been. Of course the Crown Princess was asked about her new title as regent, here. She is one hundred procent proud and honored.

I was clearly impressed by her first outfit earlier that day. In the evening she rocked another stunning outfit. Mary had chosen to wear a brand new black dotted dress from Black Halo. The dress was identified by Heaven. A very flattering creation. It gives her a long and tall silhouette. She accessorized her outfit with an old black lace scarf. I have never been able to confirm it, but on several occasions I heard that the lace scarf was once made by Heartmade Julie Fagerholt.

Despite she wore quite a lot of jewellery at the evening reception, you hardly notice all of them. The splendid golden earrings covered in shiny diamonds are designed by Dulong Fine Jewelry. Expensive earrings that someone like me can only dream about.

From the same designer, Mary embraced the style with two different models of golden bracelets and four rings from Dulong Fine Jewelry. One of the rings are brand new ring. Really beautiful pieces. The diamond bracelet is a mystery to me. It looks a lot like this one from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen, here.

As other accessories Mary was wearing a reused black patent leather from Prada, an unidentified black glitter clutch and dazzling pointed pumps from Gianvito Rossi. Hair and makeup are what completed her outfit with great perfection.

Day 2. Youth Innovation Summit in Morocco

04 October

Morning run

A while ago it was announced that Crown Princess Mary was going to Morocco to attend the Youth Innovation Summit 2019 in Rabat. This is why she flew to Morocco on October 3rd. She was about to stay for two days. On the first day she attended a seminar followed by a dinner with 100 talented young people who have been trying to figure out solutions to some of Morocco's biggest social and economic challenges, here.

October 4th started with a morning run because exercise happens to be one of the best ways to encourage Moroccan young people in a sustainable agenda in. So Crown Princess Mary had replaced her floral dress from the previous day with running tights and a cap. The morning exercise took place in Park Hassan II which was also as part of the opening of Youth Dialogue Festival - an event based on dialogue and talk about sustainable development and how to encourage young people in the debate.

She was in a great spirit leading the large group of runners. The Crown Princess was one big smile and happy eyes participating the morning run in Park Hassan II in Rabat. What a wonderful way to kick off her last day in Morocco.




The last couple of years we have seen how she pull off a perfect runners look. So did she when participating the morning run in Park Hassan II. Mary had chosen to wear a pair of old black NIKE tights - I have a similar pair myself and they are wonderfully comfortable. She then more a red sponsored t-shirt and her FALKE running jacket. The FALKE jacket was first worn during Royal Run in 2018 when Crown Prince Frederik celebrated his 50th birthday, here. Took me quite a while to identify it, but fortunately it features a clear logo.

Her bright blue running sneakers are a reuse from Asics. We first saw them when she was on a work visit in Ethiopia in March this year, here. Do you also have a pair of cool running sneakers? Like many other of the participating runners Mary was wearing her Under Amour cap. Clearly a beloved cap especially when she is exercising.

Youth Dialogue Festival

In the morning she participated a part of the later Youth Dialogue Festival taking place in Rabat - a morning run in Park Hassan II. As guest of honor Crown Princess Mary opened the festival with a remarkable speech honoring the importance of young people trying to make a difference. This is why the festival is the place to go to, because the Youth Dialogue Festival act as a platform for young talents where they can present ideas and business models on challenges faced by Morocco.

The Crown Princess was clearly impressed by all the young participants and their ideas presented to her during the two days in Rabat, Morocco. She expressed how much they inspired her in her speech. She was in a splendid mood all day. She had plenty of time wherever she went. Just her smile had to make everybody comfortable.

Mary was in an outstanding outfit at the opening of the Youth Dialogue Festival in Rabat. She matched a plain white button-down shirt (still unidentified) with a brand new floral printed skirt. It is almost mesmerizing to look at. The colors. The prints. The length. It is simply stunning. So far I have not been able to identify who designed it. Do you happen to know anything? I know many of you recognize the style, but non have been able to find it yet. Do you like her new skirt?

The first accessory I noticed was the sunglasses. They are not new but I have never been able to find them. I really tried because I love them and was like to know where they are from. But so far, I have not had any luck. The sunglasses makes her look super chic.

She also styled her outfit with lots of incredible jewellery from Dulong Fine Jewelry, Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen and Cartier. Among others golden earrings and bracelets. To match the rest of her beautiful look she wore brown suede Gianvito Rossi pumps. What a look, right?
