Crown Princess Mary 's outfit is a smart choice. A gray dress with a white bolero-type cardigan are simple, appropriate, and elegant. She looked happy and relaxed.

I'm not sure I like the dress, it gives her a bit of a belly

Mary looks great considering the long flight she has just had, not too fond of what she's wearing though.

Fred and Mary look very tanned. She looks a little tired, maybe a little puffiness around the eyes. Looks good otherwise.

On the second photo she look so strange. Like not she.
I don't like her grey/silver or maybe light blue dress and this white sweater too.
She could wore something in warm colours in which she wouldn't look trashy. Her todays outfit cover her figure. It give her few puonds extra.

Btw she looks litle round... who know maybe that's just holidays and long trip from Denmark.

Hm, ok...do I get this right...she is your favourite, because she is well dressed (?!) Maybe there are more like you out there, then the investment of a stylist would make a lot of sense for most princesses...

I really don't believe that you mean the word TRASHY in connection with Mary. In America that would mean a woman looked "whore-like" and I am sure you did not mean that. Maybe you meant not an expensive outfit, which might be true for all we know.

I don't like her outfit dress and sweater. She looks so trashy and old. It give her few pound extra.
Like she lost her figure suddenly.
I don't think they look that bad. Mary's outfit is kind of blah, but I must respectfully disagree with you about her looking trashy. They do look a bit tired, but that is probably due to the long flight to China that they took.

I am not a fan of this dress. It is kind of blah on her, and looks a bit wrinkled. The color is okay, and the little sweater is okay, but the dress doesn't look that great on her.

Sorry but Mary will never be able to look trashy, not even in a sack cloth! Her choice of outfits may not suit everyone's taste but she always looks smart.

Hello: Well if we don't know the person and if we haven't speak with her I can only express my feelings for Mary for what I see - external things. And the first thing I see are her clothes, her beauty yes - SORRY but this is true! Of course I also think she is a wonderful mother (from what I can see..but arent' they all good mothers????). Also her work is consider to be good and makes a point there yes, but I have to tell that when I see a picture of Mary the first thing that captures my interest is the way she dresses and then what she is doing in that place...

The dress is perfect for the ocassion, very smart indeed!!! Not too mucht, the stars are the athelets, not Mary! She is summer dress, it is very hot in China these days, she is casual smart dressed!!! This an "official" event but also a casual event where everyone is relax and is having chats, so there is no need to dress too formal!!!!!!

Here is the picture. I like Mary's colourful summery dress (a repeat I believe). Fred could have made an effort and worn a suit that actually fits.

Official luncheon in Beijing.

A nice summer dress I believe a repeat from a night out with Fred in London. Freds suit is ill-fitted.

Yes this one is repeated, but it was a non official act, it was a nigth out with friends and I belive very few people have seen this dress!!! Also it was hiden by a big man's jacket the last time she wore it ;-)))!!!

I love Mary's dress. It is so colorful and pretty. Who are the other people in the photo?
