I really like her outfit from the design exhibition at the Conrad Hotel. The top and bottom match! Sorry for the sarcasm. I do really like the outfit, very elegant.

I also really like the gold top and skirt from when she met the king and queen of Thailand. I esp like the skirt.

I also really like what she has been doing with her makeup and hair. She is wearing makeup which really suits her coloring. And her hair is a little shorter, cut around her face and curled under a little: it frames her face nicely and is shaped but still casual, which is her style.

She looks nice in the pictures from Conrad Hotel, I agree. The white seems to be a warmer shade of white, than the one she wore in the mis-matched outfit.

Her hair looks nice, too. She suits having it that length, it makes it look softer around her face.

Aftenpostes says she gave her best speech ever in english at the opening of the design exhibition, and that she has gotten better at answering questions, before she always said that everything was "wonderful" and "intresting"

http://cache.aftenposten.no/multimed...es_240615h.jpg

I dont like this dress, it reminds me of grandmas table cloth, but atleast it is some colour, and her hair looks nice and tidy

http://cache.aftenposten.no/multimed...es_240616h.jpg
I really liked the white suit, I thought white would wash her out but te crisp white really did not. as opposed to the beige outfit the otherday that made her look very bland.

Sprudler av selvtillit

I am severly disappointed in her dressing on this trip, except the blue dress she wore the very first night.
Thank you for the pictures. I wouldn't be that disappointed if I were you. These trips are not just about how many wonderful gowns and suits that Princesses can come up with. They are about diplomacy, promoting your country and creating good relationships with the dignitaries and citizens of others countries. This trip also focused a great deal on global peace which is always a great thing to hope for and promote. IMO, Haakon and MM have done well in those respects. No disappointment at all here.
