I see it is hard not to compare Marie to Mary.

From the picture I've seen, Marie seems a cheerful and nice person. She has an open smile, a bit like Maxima.

I think that Marie like Mary will become more "polished" over time if she marries into the royal family.

I think Marie is very good now, maybe could use a bit of polishing. She reminds me so much of a young Mary, in looks, although I think she is less shy than Mary was.

The polishing will come when they get more serioues imo just like Mary. She seems to be a very out going, fun personPictures are great, she always seems to be walking around with a wide smile on her face. Joachim seems to be a happy person in her presence.

Could be I'm wrong. I don't think that Mary was or is shy. Her Husband is shy, probably even very shy, therefore sometimes the rather awkward way he comes across. To me Mary is reserved maybe sometimes even a bit distant. Not bad for a royal consort and future queen in the long time run. Marie seems to be more open-hearted and for sure not so reserved or distant. Could be that it is what Joachim needs. Maybe Marie will never be the perfect danish princess though I think Marie could become a true asset to the DRF and hopefully a kind of friend to Mary.

i also think we shouldn't judge her because of how she dresses. in fact, how she dresses looks totally fine to me: just like every single girl of a big city who works and who is young. she never wore anything that can be considered vulgar and if the relation becomes more serious, i'm sure she will get the appropriate advice and polishing to dress more stylish, just as it happened with mary. i can't recall how alexandra used to dress before her marriage, but mary's wardrobe was just as marie's is now. mette-marit is also a good example of this. mathilde, maxima and letizia seemed to have a more "executive" wardrobe, mainly because of their previous position.

I don't think anyone judged her or made any statements about her character based on how she dresses. A few just expressed a dislike of what she wears.

According to some, a dress can be more than just a dress, as a scandalous dress perhaps cost Eva Sanuum the Spanish crown. I think when you date someone of a certain stature, you should reflect that person. Iàm not saying she should give up her identity and style, but maybe think a little more carefully about what she wears. Maybe it's not so important now. Maybe it is.
