Blimey, you do like to live dangerously.

Nice to see Maxima in this coat again, I like it and she looks gorgeous in it . And luckily it isn't from Natan (my pet hate for the moment).

Is that Hanja Maij Weggen with Maxima btw? As she is comminionair of the Queen (governor) of Brabant? I wondered, do they always accompany members of the RF? Or just every now and then and if that is the case, when do and when don't they accompany the RF?

I agree! Maxima clearly loves children. That little girl looks like little Irene of la Infanta Cristina.

The CdK's always accompany members of the RF be it on official,or working visits.
Why is Nathan your pet hate now?

Well, a 'hate' is too strong but I just don't like to see all the Princesses, Grand Duchess and what not of the Benelux in the same outfit albeit in different colors. Very shallow, but it annoys me. That his clothes are very often not very flattering (balloon skirts) doesn't help either and I do not find his clothes that special, Maxima could things that are as nice or nicer in her own country.

That's just so annyoing. I couldn't trust my eyes when I saw Margriet wearing the same outfit Princess Mathilde just wore 3 days earlier.
And Máxima attending a state dinner wearing the same galadress Mathilde wore just a few days later.
And: IMO Natan clothes just look all the same (style wise) and I am not a huge fan of his creations!

Grinning.........It often are not the most serious things in life that can annoy you most,same here......

Oh,if only Edgar Vos would still be availeble.Now,he knew what chic was/is.
Btw,did you know we,here in The Netherlands,have 275 independent fashion designers?
There must be some real outstanding talent out there wouldn't you think?

I remember she explained, in French, the Dutch saying "Kijken, kijken, niet kopen" (Look, look, not buy). I don't know how advanced her French is, but she clearly had a previous knowledge of the language.

You don't?I love that leather skirt.But it takes a certain size/type to get away with it.....,and she definetly carries it off great.
She has a jacket in the same colour too.

Oh my...has Máxima been reading TRF? Her hair is nicely groomed! Yippee!! Finally! Only one more thing to burn Máxima, only one more little thing - those blasted ankle-tie shoes you love wearing. They do nothing for your ankles and legs

[TLLK]

I like the color of the jacket. It reminds me of the engagement dress.
