I wonder if we'll see any photos from tomorrow's speech in London?

i hope so! i think it will be a big thing tomorrow, as it's maxima's first event after her giving birth. plus, it's for an international organisation, so i'm sure we will see some pictures, and maybe even a video? :)

I read somewhere that men tend to choose a spouse who does have somehow resemblances with their mothers like gestures, character or even visibly. This is certainly true for WA. I can't think of another royal family where the spouse of the heir suits in so well as in the Netherlands. Amazing.

The same thought crossed my mind, especially when I looked at today's pics. Glad I am not the only one..:)

I just hope she doesn't pick up Beatrix' habit of using 3 cans of hairspray per day. From that perspective I prefer her hair how it is these days and I thought she looked lovely today. I am glad she's back and I admire her I-can-handle-everything attitude together with her smile. What a smart woman!

I couldn't agree more! I also like the fact that she seems so real. I guess her hair could have been fixed better but it never bothers me that much. She just seems real and not into all the superficial stuff, which is one of many reasons why I like her so much. I'm just glad to see her back at work.

well, she didn't spend her pregnancy with soul searching thoughts about an improved hairdo, the same mess as usual (and I like her just the more because of it ) . At least she is wearing pearls....

Underneath that hairdo sits a set of brains to envy as well....

That was my first thought as well, Marengo, when I saw the footage on RTL Blvd. But then I also thought, Good for her, for caring about the subject matter at hand, and her daughters, more than making sure she gets enough hours at the hair dresser's! Definitely a woman who is more about content, than appearance! Although I also think <she>'s quite content somehow with that hairdo..shame. Oh well, maybe Alex likes it!

yeah, it is a bit messy but that is Maxima's look. i personally like it. i think its her declaration of independence. she is saying that becoming a princess hasnt changed her.

its also hilarious because its the exact opposite of beatrix.

Good observation - I do agree though with Duke of Marmelade's observation too: that Maxima really does resemble her mom on law, also in gestures, it's just amazing indeed!
