I am by no means an expert on orders and medals, this is rather one of the things I haven't quite got the hang of yet - but - I think that Princess Madeleine is wearing the Latvian Order of the Three Stars (the one hanging from the ribbon and then the second one), and the ribbon is the ribbon of the Order of the Three Stars... I'm not certain of this, but this is what I think.
