wow... i just had time to look at the pictures & the thread...
it was definitely one gala evening last night...
everyone looks beautiful & stylish...
hopefully tonight it will be as glamorous & even more...

it's really good to see Princess Rym of Jordan making her intl debut appearance. and definitely good to see the royal boyfriends/girlfriend there.
 
Mary is stuning! I 'm very happy to see that she mantein a very good relation ship with her father in law...All the pictures revele complicity, they always chating and laughing....Mary is The greatest!!!!My favorite royal princess..

Maxima is great too, she looks very beautifull and elegant...

Mette-Marit desapoint me, because she use to be so elegant too and this dress is horrible...

Who is this couple please? http://www.theroyalforums.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=241322&d=1146387439

I think it's a great shame Mathilde & Philippe weren't present, they had an engagement in Brussels, but maybe they could have followed WA & Maxima's example?

For me Emma Pernald, grandduchess Maria Teresia, princess Maxima and princess Mary looked the best, absolutely wonderful, the way a princess ought to look.

Shame on you Mette Marit, that's all I can say ;)

I watched the parade on ZDF. It was lovely to see the family moving, instead of on pictures! It was funny that as soon Carl-Phillip waved all (school)girls started yelling.

The Queen seems to be dressed in Natan, the outfit reminds me of something Maxima and Mathilde wore, in another colour.

Anyway, I hope to see pictures of the other royals as I just caught a few glimpses of them Maxima was in Orange...


The evening before: Marie-Theresa is my absolute favourite, followed by the ever elegant Queen Sophia.

Hmmm, I agree with everyone on Mette-Marit's dress. She can look so good, so why does she insist on wearing something frumpy. Why not re-wear the Valentino gown from the baptism in Greece - she looked gorgeous in that - instead? The black sleeves on this dress should've been ripped off, by someone.

Do you actually know how cold it is right now in Sweden, at least in the evening?!

Mette-Marit - Why? Tell me why you take that red hat?

it looks like something Martha Louise wore to Felipe & Letizia's wedding.
definitely not a good choice! :rolleyes:
Mette-Marit usually dressed better when she's abroad, but the gala dress yesterday, and today's morning choice is probably not a good choice.
Hopefully she'll make up this evening! ;)

btw, does anyone know whether Beatrix, Albert & Paola, also Philippe & Mathilde already in Stockholm?
 
Lovely picture from Victoria and Madde from Expressen
