Don’t think of black as sorrow or death, but just think of it as a colour like any other colour. This baptism was a low key private ceremony that just happened to be followed on TV. It was not a show for you, but just a look inside a private occasion and that is why all the women and men mostly just wore nice clothe, not exceptional clothes. The only exception was Maxima, who looked too upperclass compared to the other women. Maxima is from the most wealthy royal family of them all and she showed that. The other royal families are just poor and don’t have much more wealth than they are paid by the state. Maxima was by far the bet looking woman and Mette Marit super and appropriate also. This was not a clothes thing.
The hat is actually the same one she wore to Willem-Alexander and Maxima's wedding.norwegianne said:I don't know. I don't think it is wrong to wear black at a christening. I'm not too keen on the white inside of Mette-Marit's jacket, though, as I think that it's either the wrong colour for matching with that suit in that manner, or that the top should be slightly lower cut (without being inappropriate.) because having the cut where it is right now makes it look a bit dowdy, in my opinion. But the black is okay. It might be more fun, though, if she had had dresses made in the same pale blue fabric for herself and Ingrid Alexandra - to colour coordinate.
I don't know why, but all the recent pictures of Ingrid Alexandra (when she's not dressed in pink as she was for most of her first year), I very much get the impression that she is a tomboy.
(But what was it with Märtha Louise's hat? I'm all for her experimentation, as it gives another layer to the fashion at the event, but this hat was a bit over the top and maybe a bit more eccentric than I'd like. I'm a fan of when she twists the classical stuff around a bit, but this was just strange. Maybe Maud Angelica had had a fun day making it at daycare?)

adelaide said:You can see on the pic where Mary is sitting that she has a very bad way to do it crossing her legs ( I observed yet for Christian's christening ) It's not elegant at all for a woman to cross her legs when she wear skirt; it's not very distinguished even more for an oficial act. Have a look none of the women of the first row did it . I remenber my mother told me that in the past ....Pay attention Mary, you are now a princess and you aren't in riding coat....
