She seems to have a new fondness for interesting prints...

it's lovely they chose him to be godfather of amalia and that they keep contact to the point of attending his investment. what a shame there weren't any pictures...

Dutch author Harry Mulish also received a honorairy doctorate, though I haven't seen pictures of the Prince of Orange and Princess Maxima with the present day King of Dutch literature ...

Ehm Marengo, self-made King of Dutch literature. It's about time the chap publishes a new book, otherwise we will forget about him.

Wow....Maxima looks incredible! I love her hair.....textured, but not unruly looking. I call it "hippie hair". I'm kinda rockin' now as I type. I also like that jacket she's wearing.

Default Maxima
Hmmm....does anyone else notice that Princess Maxima often wears orange? I mean, not many people wear that color so much. Do you think its a pun off of their name? I also notice that the Grand Duchess of Luxembourg wears it often and one of their orders of chivalry's ribband is orange. Just a thought...

Personally, I also think Maxima is the lovliest of the Crown Princesses. Her hair may be a little mess sometimes, but that happens.

I think it's just because it looks good on her.

I honestly don't think its because it looks good on her, even though it does. Most colours look great on Maxima. Orange doesn't look as good as really any other color on her...

I'm agree. I believe that colors like white, brown, or maybe clear colors make Máxima looks great!! She's really nice and I think she knows what to wear and when to wear it!

Hair: Super

Coat: There's certainly nothing written about personal preferences... so I guess there's nothing wrong or argueable about wearing a curtain as coat
