I just saw a magazine called 'Nouveau' and they selected 10 Dutch women with guts, Maxima was one of the 10 too, the magazine said the way she was able to stay herself, how her entry to the RF loosened up the family (sigh), and the way she positiones herself in the intergration debate makes her stand out and gives her guts.

I like her outfit and there's no sign of the unflattering ankle straps.

She doesn't look very "radiating" in this pic IMHO... her hair is a little bit "revolted" to be honest...

I recall reading an article from the State Visit to Belgium in which Princess Mathilde remarks that Princess Maxima was learing French.

But you all could have known girls....

HRH spoke french while sipping tea with HM and Alexander in the Grand Bazár in Istanbul during the State Visit,remember?
She has become a real dutch polyglot.

This is the first time I've seen her recycle my fave baptism(Alexia) outfit, looks like chanel. I loved the big flower/net hat she wore with it.
In the beelbank(sp) photo her skin looks nice.

Another messy look for Máxima.
The outfit is old, but nice... but that hair. Looks like she didn't brush or wash it.
Sorry, but IMO she urgendly need to do something with it! Cut it, color it... whatever!

[sgl]

It looks like her hair is stuck in the back of her shirt, and it is way too messy on top. I wonder if she was out in the wind? I like her with longer hair, and I think the color is nice, but she needs a more polished style.

[bertie5252003]

I know what you mean Her Majesty but I have really come to love all that untidy look that Maxima try as she might seems to look perfect thing can't do. She does appear to urgently need top draw help with her look I completely agree but......I just can't help but think it is just part of her.... I hope I am expressin this the correct way and NOT appearing as if I objecting to your seriously appropiate observation.
