Terrific pictures everybody! ... I forgot how what a great smile Maxima has. It was sorely missed I realize now after seeing these pictures!

Maybe it's just my monitor settings at work, but the pictures of Queen Beatrix as seen from my computer make her hair look extra orange rather than the blonde-brown she has when I see her pictures at home.

Were other members of the Dutch royal family in attendance? The Queen's other sons and their wife and fiancee, Princess Margriet and Pieter and any of their family?
 
only the queen, the prince of orange, princess maxima, princess margriet and mr. pieter van vollenhoven. remember that the other royals just have jobs like everybody else, so a limited number of days off.

btw, did anybody notice the nanny??? maxima thought...lets take the eldest one, I do not want competition in my house :p

Thanks everyone for the photos. I don't want to be mean, but I was a little disappointed with the blue dress/skirt that Maxima wore for the New Year's reception. I just don't think the colour suits her very well, but that's just my opinion. I really loved what she wore in the post by xxPatrickxx though. That really suits her and she looks nice. :)

Honestly, I usually don't like her clothing at all--and yet I still think her lovely. She's vivacious and effervesant, regardless of her sometimes peculiar clothing choices (the detective outfit at the funeral coming quickly to mind, as well as what was it, a sunflower hat?) Her personality allows her to carry the day, nevertheless.

yes she radiates with happiness witch is the first that catches the eye.

re the outfit, I think leather jackets look best
on the slender and being prengnant she is a bit chubby and
when you are not older than 30.

Maxima looks great, except for the hair. I like the hair back. It makes her look more sophiscated and sleek. Everyone is not a size 2, and Maxima's size she not be an issue.
 
I like the outfit. The blue/brown combination is nice, as is the necklace.

My problem is that she seems to be wearing almost no makeup and looks washed out, puffy and tired. Maybe symptoms of her pregnancy? Though that still doesn't excuse not being able to put on a little lipstick and blush!
 
I think one of the reasons of that is that her hear a little bit wild is on the photo's. The moment she goes back to home her hair looks good en her look is completely different!
 
She looks happy but very messy. She can do better than that, a (tiring)pregnancy is no excuse to wear no make-up or to wear your hair like that.

I noticed again how easily she puts on weight. It happens often during pregnancies of course, I was glad I got spared from extra training after my children were born ;)

Willem-Alexander looked very happy too :)
 
I think also that someone has done the hair and make-up in the palace. On the television she looks great with her hair up. :rolleyes:
 
still 1 picture from the New Years Reception...it's a nice picture.

This thread has now been cleaned up. Unfortunately a lot of posts were removed in the process because of broken links. I hope we can update this thread -- especially since it was Amalila's first "official" engagement!
