CPss Maxima is here at my office today. She has a two or three body guards and I guess she looks really pretty. I am going to sneak downstairs in a bit to see if I can catch glimpse of her when they go on break. Very exciting day for me as I just love her.

¨

wow, how exciting! did you get the chance to speak to her? was it a private visit? any comments about her from the people that got to talk to her?

you are so lucky! :wub:

barber · Nov 16, 2006

kdc26 very nice you can see Maxima so close and not in the netherlands but in Canada .

kdc26 · Nov 16, 2006

I didn't get a chance to talk with her. There were alot of people downstairs and I only was there for a few minutes. I can't believe my luck as she is one person I never thought I would get to see in my life, especially in Halifax.

Can you make any photo's or something else?

kdc26 · Nov 17, 2006

I had no idea that she was coming to the building so I didn't have my camera with me. I am trying to find out if any pics were taken while she was here.

that would be great! if it was a private visit (without press) i wonder if she does those normally... or if any other royals visit places privately...

kdc26 · Nov 17, 2006

She was here as part of at Global Microcredit Summit here in Halifax. Queen Sofia of Spain was here also along with many United Nations members. Here is a post from the Glittering Royal Events Board that explains what was going on. My company was involved as part of the local host committee.

looks more like a light jacket , than a dress ! if it was a jacket I would like it better , in a dress Im not sure!
I do like the top bit ! and I really like her necklace

Avalon · Nov 22, 2006

Thank you for the pictures, dazzling.
Her outfit is, well, too shiny. :ermm:

But all the same, Maxima looks radiant.

dazzling · Nov 22, 2006

I thought her outfit was lovely today, maybe a bit shiny for a daytime event but I think she looked great. also liked her necklace and bag. She looked very radiant and belly growing nicely

Henri M. · Nov 22, 2006

Eerh.... I better keep on the surface about the lady's appearance.

:neutral:

Tinika · Nov 22, 2006

Her shiny outfit is tacky.

HRH Mims · Nov 22, 2006

Btw, does anyone know if she has lady-in-waiting?

And also

please notice me, if links doesn't work.

Her_Majesty · Nov 22, 2006

The links work for me! Thanks! (You have to tell me how to post direct links to Seegerpress pictures

).
I don't like this silver coat at all! It was too shiny!

pianohabebi · Nov 22, 2006

Thank you for all those great photos mims!

Hmmm, I think her coat is made of an iridescent-type fabric. In some of the photos that mims provided her coat looked white, silver, or grey. In a couple of others it didn't look shiney at all. Iridescent fabric tends to get really shiney in bright light, but, in natural or dimmer lighting it looks rather nice IMHO. It all depends on the type of light and how the light hits the fabric; all those will affect the shine and colors that come through on the material.

Of course, this is more or less an educated guess. However, I'm willing to bet the coat looked a lot better in person. Just my two cents worth. :flowers:

seto · Nov 22, 2006

I agree I think it probably looked better in person.

magnik · Nov 22, 2006

Mims you done that again! Thanks so much :flowers:

fee · Nov 22, 2006

Crickey, if that bling at her finger is genuine, she could finance a small country all by itself.
Too much bling and shine and could someone tell her that ankle strap heels require really slim feet and ankles?

popy · Nov 22, 2006

Thanks mims!!! :flowers:

I agree, her outfit is too shiny! That much shine should be illegal during the day.... :wacko:

Maxie · Nov 23, 2006

I'm wondering when she's going to trow that horrible necklace away, I so don't like it. :neutral:

I also don't get her thing for shiny materials, to be honest. Too much bling bling going on, in my opninion...
