My father had a middle age rebellion against my mom's fashion sense and started wearing bright orange-red and lime green pants. Mom was horrified but she got over it as long as she could stand as far as possible from him at a party.

Well, pollyemma, when my father retired, he had all this time to go shopping on his own, and a pretty comfortable pension that allowed him extra spending money so it was a losing battle for Mom. He bought new clothes quicker than she could throw them out.

I agree for the most part, Fred, Haakon, and Philippe of Belguim have great tastes in clothes. Willem-Alexander, I'm not so sure about. I think he's the one I saw in bright orange pants and the image has never left me.

I thought Fred looked OK in this last pic. Only suggestion I would make would be to get his pants hemmed.

With older men, grey trousers are a mistake. They show damp patches and as we all know, when older men get older they begin to leak in some rather unfortunate areas. Prince Henrik wears alot of light coloured trousers. He must have alot of confidence in himself.

alot of his jackets need to be tailored also, some of the sleeves and shoulders hang down and look too large for him. he's so cute the less clothes on the better yumyum

[Royal Fan]

awsome pics :) he and Haakon seem close and thats very refresing to see Royal Families of Europe being friends and being together

[grim_lady]

They are really close! In fact Haakon even had Fred be his best man at his wedding!

[soCal girl]

What language do they converse in? Danish, Norwegian, or English? Thanks. :) BTW, it's so cute how Frederick and Haakon are laughing. I love it when we see royals from different countries interacting with each other!

Nevermind...I saw a post in the Olympic Thread that they speak in Danish/Norwegian since they're pretty similar. I thought Danish was a lot more complicated?

It's easy enough to understand. I live in Denmark, but speak Norwegian to people and am understood by the majority of Danes. Similarly, unless the Dane in question mumbles or something equal to that, Danish isn't all that hard to understand.

Is Mary at the Games as well? The Olympic Games must be a nice reminder to both of them of when they first met!

no, she is not.

I think Frederik looks gorgeous in these new pics. They really show off his good looks and he seems to be enjoying himself.
