Crown Princess Mary's Ladies-in-waiting

[sgl]

I absolutely love her dress. It is gorgeous on her. Have any photos of Caroline at any of the birthday events been released? I haven't seen any, but I would imagine that she attended.

Edit: Never mind. I just found one of Caroline:

It looks like this was at the gala. She looked really beautiful, and she is wearing her LIW ribbon, so I guess that she was there in her capacity as LIW, not just as a guest.

She does look great in the dress.

I don't think that color dress was such a wise choice for a redhead with her coloring. It looks strange on her.

I think with red hair it looks great. Caroline isn't a natural redhead. so her skin tone looks good in more colors than someone who is natural.

Umm I don't like the dress but Caroline does have beautiful hair. I think a blue or black dress would have looked nice.

Billed-Bladet has some lovely photos of Caroline Heering:

Caroline is such a beautiful woman. She looks good in almost anything, just like Mary.

I agree with you about Caroline. She's very stylish and elegant woman, like Princess Mary.

Here is an article about Tanja's fashion

Billed Bladet has an article about Tanja and Caroline's fashions. The article says that the crown princess' style has been adopted by the LIWs.

I think Caroline Herring is the perfect LIW and I marvel at her perfection in this position. IMO Tanya has never really looked that comfortable in the job nor as stylie as Caroline. IMO

I never noticed Tanja until today. She is quite an attractive young lady.

The other one, Caroline, looks a little bit like Bree Vandekamp in Desperate Housewives... that's not a criticism, I like redheads and I like Caroline's (and Bree's) clothing.

I second that opinion.
Out of the 3 so far, I think the very 1st L-I-W (dont recall her name) wa sthe most proffesional and seemed to quite be comftable in her role, I also think Mary learnt alot from her in the first year or two.

I agree! Now correct me if I'm wrong, I don't exactly understand all the responsibilities of a LIW. They are not a stylist or do they help with this?

No rubies, a LIW has nothing to do with fashion for the princess. (Not offically anyway, like any women, they may discuss it of course )

You may be able to find out more earlier on in this thread

A Lady in Waiting is like a personal assistant to the a royal member and also sometimes to othe rnoble women. Lady in waitings usually have lower noble titles.
They help the royals at official events like take the flowers, presents they get. Also, attened all events with the royals. In some cases, if the royal does not want to attened an event, the L-I-W can attened on her behalf as she will be representing the royal at the event.
Their roles differ from royal house to the other.

Does Caroline or Tanja have a royal title? Do they help out any other member of the royal family?
Caroline and Tanja get to meet some amazing people.

Lady-in-waiting is a title / position in the Royal Household but neither Tanja Doky, nor Caroline Heering have noble (or any other) titles. In past, ladies-in-waiting were usual from noble and aristocratic families. In Britain, it is still the case in the majority of cases, however in most other European countries, Ladies-in-waiting come from any background: Tanja, for example worked for a PR firm and as a communications manager. Tanja was a close friend of Frederik and Mary’s prior to her appointment as Lady-in-waiting.

A Lady-in-waiting attends to a particular Royal and does not perform duties for another one (unless as a personal favour or private arrangement); their positions can be changed and shuffled but they assist one Royal at a time.
