Business promotion visit in Norway

HIKING IN STAVANGER

The Crown Princess was about to attend a business conference in Oslo, Norway on June 10th. She arrived one day earlier and spend the time making a dream come true: hiking in Stavanger. Crown Princess Mary visited Preikestolen. It is a mountain plateau a wonderful nature. A perfect start for the following days conference.

In her social media post, Crown Princess Mary also expressed her sincere love for nature. How important it is that we take good care of it and do what we can to find as many sustainable solutions as possible.



Mary shared a little something from her hike at Preikestolen in Stavanger. We get a glimpse of her wearing a navy blue down-jacket and a few blouses to keep warm on her trip. I was able to identify on of the. It is from Under Armor. The model is pretty cool because it can be a bit more personal than their usual  blouses. This one can be personalized with a few words. It makes me wonder if it could be a gift (maybe from her children), who customized a blouse for her.

BUSINESS CONFERENCE

Crown Princess Mary arrived one day earlier. She spend the day in Stavanger visiting Preikestolen. On June 10th, she accompanied Crown Prince Haakon and his wife Crown Princess Mette-Marit of Norway at the business conference "The green, sustainable and climate-safe cities of the future". The conference took place at Oslo City Hall.

The conference was centered around the central role of cities in achieving the UN climate goals. Crown Princess Mary mentioned that in her opening speech too. She also made it clear that both Norway and Denmark har creative, innovative, ressources and capacity to lead the way to a more green and sustainable future.

Later on, the Crown Princess attended the conference "The robust healthcare system of the future in Norway and Denmark". It took place in Oslo Science City. Multiple representative from companies, students and professionals also participated the conference. Crown Princess Mary got the opportunity to speak to several of the Danish companies participating the conference.

Mary has always been a worldclass champion in wearing old clothes in a new way. She proved that one more time by wearing this white dotted Prada dress. It was first worn in 2021 in Paris (here). The model makes the very best out of her slim silhouette. The golden buttons are a great detail to a simple dress like this.

She embraced the light style with alle nude and golden accessories. The nude python pumps from Gianvito Rossi are an old-time favourite of hers. Mary has worn them (almost) a million time over the years. I wouldn't mind them in my wardrobe. Note, Gianvito Rossi shoes are super comfortable to wear, so I get why she loves them. The reused Chanel handbag is a classy and good-looking match to the rest of her outfit.

As jewellery, Mary had chosen a pair of brand new earrings created by Dulong Fine Jewelry, two rings and a golden bracelet from the same designer. I also see a diamond bracelet from Ole Lynggaard and (believe it or not) an all new golden bangle. It features the most amazing colourful stones. To me it looks like something inherited or perhaps purchased on auction.

OFFICIAL DINNER AT NASJONALMUSEUM

It had already been a wonderful day in Oslo. In the evening, the Crown Princess accompanied Queen Sonja, Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess Mette-Marit at the official dinner marking the grand opening of Norway's new National Museum - the Nasjonalmuseum. It is the largest art museum in the Nordic countries with all its international art, design and architecture.

The three of them first visited part of an exhibition. Some of Queen Sonja and Queen Maud's dressed are on display. Then a fine dinner followed. This was the perfect ending on her business promotion visit in Norway.

Of course we understand why the world has gone crazy about Mary's (and Crown Princess Mette-Marit's) evening outfit. They both look absolutely splendid at the gala dinner. Mary wore her old custom-made Søren Le Schmidt evening gown. She embraced it beautifully with a red stone belt from Dolce & Gabbana. Something I would never have though would look good - but it does! Don't you think?

Once again, she managed to accessories her stunning look with great jewellery. Her hairdo revealed beauties created by Rebekka Notkin. She is also the designer of two of Mary's amazing bracelets. We get a glimpse of an Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen bangle as well. Mary wore that earlier on her visit. Dulong Fine Jewelry is the brand behind her huge diamond ring.

I am sure you all noticed the iconic Bottega Veneta clutch. It has been part of her wardrobe for years and it still looks perfect. The smashing golden pointed Manolo Blahnik pumps are also a really wonderful match with the golden jewellery.

Global Fashion Summit 2022

07 June 2022

Crown Princess Mary was invited as guest of honor to attend the opening of the Global Fashion Summit 2022. The summit took place in the Opera in Copenhagen. The Crown Princess gave the prestiges opening speech in her role af patron of the Global Fashion Summit and Global Fashion Agenda - which is the organization founding the summit.

More than 1,000 representatives from all over the fashion industry were gathered in the Opera along with Crown Princess Mary to discuss (among others) who to made the industry climate neutral in 2050. The representatives participated several panel debates - so did the Crown Princess. She was also given the opportunity to visit the Innovation Forum, which is part of the summit. The Innovation Forum gathers different companies working with, among other things, restoration of recycled clothing and environmentally friendly dyeing of clothing.

Mary stunned in a complete reused outfit. The printed Paul & Joe pleated midi skirt and that simple white Elise Gug blouse are indeed a wonderful combo. It look so well-balanced and summery. The colours of that Paul & Joe skirt is absolutely amazing. A really great outfit for a warmer day and a bit colder evening. How you style such a skirt?

Our beloved Mary embraced the style by wearing rather large white pearl earrings from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. I truly hope that she will be able to bring back pearl earrings, because they are such a lovely piece in your wardrobe. I am soooo old-fashion, so I own multiple pairs of pearl earrings - and necklaces. We fairly get a glimpse of her diamond band from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen, but it is there.

She topped it of with smashing baby blue suede pumps from Gianvito Rossi. I would not mind having them in my collection. No that gorgeous leather handbag from Prada. Looks good with the Gucci glasses. So, is her outfit a go or no go? I love it!

Royal Run 2022

06 June 2022

Finally. What we have waited for in a very long time - the Royal Run 2022. Once again, Royal Run gathered more than 90,000 people. The Crown Prince family celebrated that a day ahead (on June 5th) with a post on social media. The photo says it all. They are delighted, happy and excited.

On Monday, both Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary kept us posted during the day on their experiences. The Crown Prince shared a few selfies. So did his wife.

Crown Prince Frederik joined runners in Aarhus, Aalborg and Copenhagen/Frederiksberg. Meanwhile, Crown Princess Mary started in her in Kolding and later joined the team in Næsteved. She ended up back in Copenhagen early evening.

Mary's "starter" look from the celebration-post, was a CRAFT's t-shirt. The blouse is given to all participants as part of them participating the run. Mary matched the chic green blouse with brand new running tights. So far, I have never been able to identify where they are from. Any ideas? Her dark green cap is a reuse from Cavelleria Toscana. She styled the sporty look with new trainers from Ascis. I still need to find the right model.

Royal Run took place in Aarhus, Aalborg, Kolding, Næstved and Copenhagen/Frederiksberg. Mary participated the run in Kolding and later Næsteved. When arriving to Kolding, she was dressed in her old Royal Run jacket, this years participants-blouse and reused NIKE running tights. She had received a gift from the Mayor of Kolding: her new running shorts from Fusion. Apparently, she mentioned their length being pretty short. During the run, Mary added a Kknekki hair tie and a beloved Under Armor cap. We get a glimpse of a golden Cartier bracelet. I have not been able to find the right model, but Mary's running shoes are from ASICS.

Back in Copenhagen, Mary changed to another pair or NIKE trousers. A model more relaxed and (probably) a bit more comfortable. She still wore the old Royal Run jacket from CRAFT. It was priceless to see her cheer up the participants with smiles, claps and high-fives.

The wedding of Prince Gustav and Carina Axelsson

03 June 2022

ARRIVAL & THE CIVIL WEDDING

Who is the lucky couple getting married? No-one else than Prince Gustav of Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg and his beloved girlfriend of many years, Carina Axelsson. Both the Crown Prince Couple, Prince Joachim and Princess Marie stayed in Berleburg for a few days to attend the wedding.

Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary arrived late afternoon on June 3rd. They were to attend the civil wedding of the couple at Schloss Berleburg some hours after they arrived to the castle, which is located in the German state of Nordrein-Westfalen.

Actually, the Crown Prince Couple played a very significant role in Prince Gustav and Carina Axelsson's civil wedding: they acted as witnesses.

Along with the information that the Crown Prince Couple acted witnesses, we also got a photo of the newlyweds and the Danish couple. Sometimes one photo is everything it takes. Sometimes it is simply not enough. This time, we got just enough to tell that Mary wore her outstanding spring dress from Zimmermann. Isn't it beautiful? She wears it for the third time. Mary first wore it in South Korea in 2019 (here). Then later that same year, at the confirmation of Princess Ingrid Alexandra of Norway (here). We like the dress, right?

We also get a glimpse of the accessories Mary had chosen to wear with the floral printed dress. The earrings I can't identify. I think it could be a pair of Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen creations, but I am NOT sure. That stunning golden bangle is from talented Rebekka Notkin and her rather large diamond ring is by Dulong Fine Jewelry. When first wearing the Zimmermann dress in South Korea, Mary matched it with the very same peep-toe pumps. Back then, they were identified as Prada but I have never been able to find the right model. But they are in fact from Prada.

THE ECCLESIASTICALLY WEDDING

The following day of the civil wedding, the couple celebrated one more time. Around 80 guests were invited to attend the ecclesiastical wedding of Prince Gustav and now, Princess Carina. The ceremony took place in the castle church at Schloss Berleburg, such as the following dinner

Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary were here accompanied by Prince Joachim and Princess Marie.

We have very few photos from the wedding, but from what I have seen, I bet it was a magnificent and memorable day for all of them. Especially, the married coupled.

Indeed, we have only a couple of photos from the arrival of the castle church of the Danish royal family members. Of course, I wish we had just a few more photos because Mary looked so amazing in her printed Erdem dress. This is yet another reused dress from her wardrobe. She wore back in 2017 at the birthday dinner for the King and Queen of Norway (here).

Mary accessorized the lovely Erdem dress with her wedding tiara (clever choice) and morning gift (also a clever choice) for the occasion. Love that she wore something from her own wedding! A closer look revealed that she styled her outfit with a silver clutch. We want more photos, right?! Wonderful match to the Dulong Fine Jewelry diamond ring.
