The queen's dress looks like Armani.

Yes, indeed.
I am a little bit confused however. The message at the first post of this thread says that the King and Queen are on a tree day visit [from 10 till 12 June] I have just looked on the website and the quoted message is still the same there. But I have searched on various photo sides and have seen many nice pictures of the visit, but none of a diner, of something like that, on the second day and none of a third day or some farewell. In some of the captions by the pictures it is said that it is a two day visit.
Did I miss something? Or is this visit so unimportant that the photographers are gone home?

As long as it was a good visit and if they are safely returned home, that is the most important, I think, So I won't worry. And there are nice pictures, so I am content.

The only thing was that, as far as I know, many state visits have a program of three days and Monarchie.be said 10 until 12 [so 10+11+12]

Well, no problem there are new events coming next week.

It was so great that Belgian royal couple came to visit Estonia but for me queen paola seemed a little serious and rigid but maybe it's just a part of royalty. Also I must say how beautiful dresses queen Paola had and how bautiful she was. Natural charm and beauty what else . Thanks for all these beautiful pictures cause in Estonian press there were so many of these.

I love that each time the King and Queen make a state visit-they take their own personal photos. Makes them seem so down to earth
