The Young Global Leaders' Day 2015

Friday, August 28th

Crown Princess Mary attended the Young Global Leaders' Day 2015 which took place at Christiansborg Castle, the Danish Parliament. Crown Prince Haakon of Norway also attend.

In the evening, at 7:00 pm local time, Crown Princess Mary hosted a dinner for the Young Global Leaders Scandinavia at Frederik VIII's Palace, Amalienborg. 

Young Global Leaders began back in 1971 with base in Geneva, Switzerland. The founder, Professor Schwab, drew European business leaders to Switzerland each in January to an annual meeting. They were gathered to focus on how European companies could catch up with US management practices. Today this meeting has developed to have more than 13 communities one of them is Young Global Leaders with around 900 exceptional young leaders. And if Crown Princess Mary and Crown Prince Haakon of Norway shouldn't attend this meeting, I have no idea who should. They both work very hard and have been able to show impressive results over the years as representative of each their country in Scandinavia. I wonder if the Crown Princess has ever attended one of their meetings in private? Mostly, because I am surprise this should be her first meeting with the Young global Leaders. More and more leaders of large companies around the world are young people today, which I think is a great development.

Unfortunately, I have only been able to find one single photo from the 28th of August when Mary attended the meeting. Let us admit it, we can't see that much of her. What I see is a a white blouse or maybe even dress. My guess is a blouse. Perhaps her white peplum from Hugo Boss. But I'm not sure. Because the lack of pictures I really can't do it better than this. Nor do we have pictures from the dinner hosted by the Crown Princess at Frederik VIII's palace. 

The INDEX: Award 2015

Thursday August, 27th

Crown Princess Mary attended the INDEX: Award 2015 ceremony in Kulturværftet, Helsingør.


Around 8:00 pm. local time, theCrown Princess arrived to Kulturværftet in Helsingør to attend the INDEX: Award 2015 Ceremony. It is certainly not the first time she attend this event. The award is given to sustainable inventions and solutions developed by both men and women. Actually, it's the biggest prize when we talk about sustainable awards in the world. This is also the reason for all the international and national guests were invited. And of course Denmark's fashion queen no. 1 was invited. It's not that often we see the Crown Princess wear sustainable clothes, but it happens. The INDEX: Award is much more than clothes and I think the Crown Princess is very interested in the latest innovative inventions. Maybe it will be useful in her work with her foundation or for some other projects. From the second she arrived and entered the building to the time when she was standing on the stage where she congratulated the winners and hosts of the show -Lilian Gjerulf Kretz and Steffen Kretz, she was the star of the show. Five winners from four continents have been found and what they have in common is to make people's lives around the world better with their design. The five winners share a sum of €500,000. Congratulations to all of them.

I have been looking to this event because of all the glamorous dresses, sparkling jewellery and stunning hairstyles. I have to admit I'm a little disappointed by her look. No evening dress, no overwhelming jewellery and no eye catching hairstyle. Non. Way too casual. Not that I don't like her look because I really do. Just not for an evening like this. What is your opinion? Her wavy hair I love more than anything and it looks like it has become darker since the opening of the psychiatric hospital a couple of days ago. One more thought about her hair; I think she had haircut. Makes her look ultra feminine with the dark eyeshadow and her brown eyes. She amazed wearing golden Marianne Dulong earrings featuring diamonds and the twisted Orit Elhanati necklace. The bangle she wore we first saw at the Designers' Nest a few weeks ago. Do you remember it? Of course you do. Pernille have been able to identify this wonderful bracelet featuring a large, yellow citrine stone. The designer is Børge Niels Knusen. Fantastic piece of work. She matched the bracelet with an old ring on the same hand. She chose to wear a black satin clutch and golden slitter Gianvito Rossi pumps which I adore pretty much. The clutch has now been identified by Kate as her Louis Vuitton. She convinced me that a printed skirt also is stylish to wear at an fashion event. Printed skirts are the new evening dress. I usually start commenting on her clothes. Today it's the other way around. Hope you don't mind. Mary chose to wear a sleeveless black blouse and a lace medium length skirt. I identified it as Ganni. I would really much like to know what you think of yesterday's outfit.

What is UNFPA?
Their work began in 1969 and stands for United Nations Population Fund. The organization is the lead UN agency for delivering a world where every pregnancy is wanted by mother's and families and do every childbirth safe such as every young person's potential is fulfilled. Since 1969, where UNFPA began their work, the number of women dying from complications of a pregnancy or the birth has been halved! Today families are healthier and smaller. UNFPA does also work with providing women's health doing the pregnancy. Read more about their work here.

So much are going on these days. First a launching of a new project, the inauguration of a psychiatric hospital and tonight she'll be attending the INDEX: Award 2015. The Crown Princess is a really busy woman right now. The meeting with the UNFPA organization yesterday, was not an official event. Still, the press was there and took some pictures when she and Dr. Babtunde Osatimehin had a conversation with the Foreign Minister Kristian Jensen. This is not the first time she met with Executive Director of UNFPA, because she's been working with the UNFPA at a few occasions for a couple of years now. If I am correct, she once or twice met him as patron of the Mary Foundation. I'm not quite sure what the meeting was about, but my guess is the work of UNFPA. Maybe how Denmark can take part in their work. I love that she, even in her spare time, attends a meeting like this. To me it proves she is very committed to know more, help and to build a connection between different organizations and the Danish Government.

I always try to keep myself updated when it comes to Mary and her official calendar. If you are a royalist you never sleep. There is always things do. Sometimes I miss an event -this was one of them. But a reader made me aware of her presences. With loose wavy hair and a heartbreaking smile, Mary attended yesterday's meeting. She was the center of attention when standing in the middle of Dr Babtunde Osatimehin and Kristian Jensen. As last days outfit, she was dressed in black and white, new and reused. I'm tempted to start with her white blouse, so that's what we do. A few weeks ago, I was just about to buy a similar blouse. The high neckline frame the face beautifully. My reader Kate suggests that her blouse could be from By Malene Birger. Take a look at the link below and tell me what you think. To me the black jacket looks like Prada. The eye catching satin silk pencil skirt is new. Can you believe it, only one day and Heaven has already identified the skirt as Hugo Boss (BOSS Black). After a closer look I kinda like it. Marianne Dulong has created her golden earrings featuring white freshwater pearls. To me it looks like she's wearing her Christian Louboutin pumps as we saw a few days ago.

The launch of Loving Spoken

Tuesdays, August 25th

With the Mary Foundation did Crown Princess Mary attend the launch of the project Loving Spoken
 at Guldberg School in Copenhagen. 


For quite a while we haven't seen the Crown Princess. Mainly because of the official vacation. Now she is back again. Of course this means twice as much work for me, but it doesn't matter. Nothing's better than diving into the royal world of overwhelming dresses and glimpsing tiara's. I know there is non of that in this post, but I'm sure you know the feeling. When the Crown Princess arrived to Guldberg School in Copenhagen to attend in the launching, she was met by a class of eight grade pupils with waving flags. The reason for her visit is a project Loving Spoken which gives the young people some tools to prevent violent relationships. Loving Spoken will be tested in several different classes before other school will be able to buy in 2016. The idea started back in 2010 which proves that such projects takes time to develop. I'm sure it has been created specially by people who work and understand these issues. Domestic violence is one of the Mary Foundations focus areas. Domestic violence is a hard subject to talk about and for her to be open and actually talk about makes the dialogue a bit easier. Of all my heart I hope Loving Spoken will be able to help a lot of young people to prevent ending up in a violent relationship. After she gave a speech, which was really incredible. She took plenty of time to chat with some of the young people to hear their personal story. She expressed how important she think it is to learn the young once and for all, to talk about their feelings and give them a way out if they need it. Even though hard feeling is difficult to talk about, we need to. This is also a part of the tools from the project: to be able to express your feeling's and thoughts.

Casual in black and white, Mary attended the launching. No confusing prints and colours, only plain claim colours with a little fun on the shoes. We will come back to shoes and other accessories later. Yesterday I had no time to look for her clothes because I was in the middle of doing the post from August 24th, when she attended the opening of the new psychiatric hospital in Slagelse. Luckily, I have amazing followers who are there to give me a helping hand. I was so sure that her black blouse had to be from Hugo Boss, but an awareness reader saw something I hadn't seen: the little white stitched heart '<3' on the back. This heart is used by Danish brand Julie Fagerholt Heartmade. I haven not been able to find the identical model, but this is enough proof to me. The link below is just to show you how the heart looks like. The sleeves were rolled up. A really great detail. Then we have a new skirt as well. A creamy white one featuring a high waist. Now it has been identified as Day Birger et Mikkelsen. It was found by stylish royal women on Danish Royal Family! With her new cream white A-line skirt and high ponytail hairstyle, she reminds me of a classy 50s outfit -the stereotype teenage outfit. Mary bring this outfit to a whole new level. The business style for everyday use.
No outfit without accessories. Mary chose simple and colourful jewellery to give yesterday's look a little more fun. We all know about the Anni Lu bracelets, I've been able to identify two of the three as Mess Army and Fun Army. The third one is her multicoloured sapphire Charlotte Wæhrens bracelet. I am considering to give myself one of the Anni Lu bracelets for my birthday?Than there was a new one or at least I think it's new. A golden bracelet features a circle pendant with an engraved 'M'. Could be a Jane Kønig tag. The two necklaces we also know all about -one from Orit Elhanati and Marianne Dulong. I also see a diamond ring from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. I was convinced she was wearing brand new earrings from Jewlscph and now I know she in fact is. Apparently several people have sought where they could purchase the earrings, so they asked the designer herself maybe because the link I had shared not worked... Then I got an email from Jewlscph where they explained which model she was actually wearing. Bottega Veneta is the designer of her expensive bag, like the Anni Lu bracelets we know everything about it. Mary has worn it multiple times at almost any kind of occasion, such as with the stunning and edgy Christian Louboutin snake pumps. It simply does not get any more stylish. She topped off this wonderful daytime look with a beautiful natural make up.
