King Frederik's 56th birthday

26 May 2024

Our beloved King Frederik celebrate his 56th birthday today! He showed up on the balcony of Frederik VIII's Palace at Amalienborg in Copenhagen. The family are currently living in Kancellihuset at Fredensborg Castle but for a moment, the family enjoyed time in their second home at Amalienborg.

The King was accompanied by all four children, his lovely wife and wonderful mother when celebrated by the Danes at Amalienborg Square.

Is it a coincidence that Mary and Margrethe are both wearing the same bright pink colored dresses? I doubt it but I like the fact that they both wore eye-catching colors. Mary wore a reused No 21 dress. She has worn it on four other occasions. In 2018, 2019, 2021 and 2023. When is your favourite look? I'm a big fan of her 2018 outfit - mainly because of the shoes.

For her husbands birthday, Mary accessorized her elegant dress with exclusive Annikat earrings and fine necklaces from Halberstadt and Julie Sandlau. Do you wear particular jewellery on a daily basis? I wear my engagement ring and often a necklace. We also get a glimpse of her custom-made ruby ring created in style to match Queen Ingrid's Ruby Parure.

A first glance, I was not a huge fan of her outfit. I really do not know where. The more I study it; the more I love it. Did you know that Mary actually wore the exact same Jesper Høvring blouse at the opening of 'Copenhagen Fashion Summit' in 2017? At this years opening, she wore embraced the beautiful of the blouse with a reused maxi skirt.

The skirt has never been identified, but she has worn it in 2019, 2021 and 2022. Why is it so hard to find? - the print is so significant. Adore the way Mary matched skirt and shoes in color. Wish I had a pair of yellow Gianvito Rossi pumps in my wardrobe. They are gorgeous.

Mary wore a couple of well-known necklaces from Halberstadt and Julie Sandlau. The third one is new. Love the 'chunky' look. It has been identified as Dior. Look closer and you will see diamond studded golden earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry. Her rather large ring is also a Dulong Fine Jewelry creation.

Royal Run 2024

20 May 2024

95,000 Danes participated this years Royal Run, which took place in Fredericia, Brønderslev, Aarhus, Kalundborg and Copenhagen/Frederiksberg. 

The run goes back to when King Frederik celebrated his 50th birthday in 2018 and was ment to gather people for the celebration. The idea came from the King himself.

This year, King Frederik ran One Mile in Fredericia, 5 km in Aarhus and 10 km in Copenhagen/Frederiksberg. Crown Prince Christian visited Brønderslev. He participated a One Mile run. Queen Mary went to Kalundborg and participated a 5 km run. 

Meanwhile, Princess Isabella was accompanied by Prince Vincent and Princess Josephine in Copenhagen for a One Mile. Prince Vincent joined his father for 10 km in the afternoon.

Really not much to say. Mary nailed it! Love that we have a Queen that show up just like everybody else. Dressed in this years Royal Run t-shirt and simple black running tights. Later on, when back in Copenhagen watching the run with her youngest, she added a reused Royal Run jacket from 2019. Both t-shirt and jacket are made by CRAFT.

When running, she wore a brand new black TROLLE cap. Her shoes are old ones from Asics and the blue shades are Gucci.

Before her run in Kalundborg, she posted a photo on social media showing her beloved necklaces from Halberstadt and Julie Sandlau. Always keeping her family close.

Meeting with UNCHR

16 May 2024

The Queen just arrived home from Oslo. They couple participated a two-days official state visit in Norway. 

On May 16th, she hosted a meeting with the High Commissioner of UNHCR Filippo Grandi to a chat about UN's challenging work to protect the lives and rights of refugees. Also the effort to improve the conditions of women and girls in humanitarian crises and the importance of climate change for vulnerable local communities.

We have seen so many amazing outfits the last month. First, their visit to Sweden and then to Norway. When meeting with Filippo Grandi, the High Commissioner of UNHCR she had chosen one of her Apiece Apart dressed. Always loved the color and the print. I adored her outfit in 2018, when celebrating her husbands 50th birthday.

At the meeting, she styled her outfit with Gucci tortoise-like glasses and jewellery from Dulong Fine Jewelry, Halberstadt, Julie Sandlau and Rebekka Notkin. Her golden bangles are still a nightmare.
