The course with UNDP in Copenhagen 2003
 

Victoria arriving at the UN-headquarter in Danmark.
Very casual style, nothing new. But the smile looks in a way different (new lipstick?)

To have won a round against the German magazines is a confidence booster, and this is imo what we're seeing here. A joyful smile, a relaxed smile (a smile of a person who likes? to share herself with the public?).

you´re right, she does look happy. maybe its because of the "love trip" and the story with the german tabloids =)

do you think she stays with the dansih royal family when she is in Danmark?

that **** is hideous... and the hair oh gosh she needs a new style,yes? maybesome contacts

I agree a little bit with Sexyswede (but my view of the outfit isn´t so "harsh")...I mean the dress is cute, but I would also prefer that she would use contacts (if she always need an eye correction) at galas. I´m not against glasses (I´m shortsighted...not very high diopters, so I need glasses, but just for reading, watching TV...and I also dislike contacts). But I would say that there are less people, which look good with glasses and an evening dress! And IMO Victoria is not such a person!
And yes, the ponytail..what should I say...I´ve talked so often about this :rolleyes:

And judging the pics above (yes, I know, that we can´t really judge, just guess): Do you think that Mary D. and cp Victoria like each other?

Imagine Scandinavia - Köpenhamn, Danmark. Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden seen here arriving at the UN headquarters in Copenhagen Denmark today. The Crown Princess will attend a two day course before leaving for a big meeting with the UN organization UNDP (United Nations Development Program) in Cairo Egypt, starting on November 19. Tomorrow Thursday evening the Crown Princess will fly from Copenhagen to Madrid to attend a Spanish-Swedish trade dinner with, among others, Crown Prince Felipe of Spain. And Crown Princess Victoria will fly direclty from Madrid to Cairo.

What happened to the top of Victoria's outfit ... looks to me like half the tufting is missing. ;)

Seems to me Mary is in uncharted waters ...... its very deep all around, and the life-line is so used to this type of thing.

Victoria is ..... an itsy bitsy little bit reserved. Am I reading this right ?

I tend to agree in part with both Sexyswede and Lena with Victoria's outfit. It seems to have missed the mark .. is this deliberate to let Mary shine ? Or is Victoria pooped with all the travelling, and this is a place where she can get away with it a little bti ?

What's the matter with the pony-tail .... it exposes her lovely neck. Maybe she wants to feel a bit vulnerable .. maybe she's a bit envious of the pending couple thing between Mary and Fred.

What is it with Victoria ... another outfit with pants ?

A comparison overall between Victoria and Mary ... neutral appearance. Neither outshines the other.

Why should she WANT to feel vulnerable? And actually she´s no single, she has her beloved Daniel at home...and a few weeks ago Mary wasn´t in another position than Daniel II.
I disbelieve that she wanted to let Mary the show (or isn´t this Moulin-Rouge-top exciting enough for you, guys ;) ), I guess it´s rather a convenience-thing.
Once there was in the german magazine BUNTE (german´s biggest gossip magazine, though more respectable than other mags on the german market) a picture of Victoria and a try of a psychoanalysis of Victoria (and her style). And there the psychologist claimed that the reason why Victoria wear her hair out of the face (she had a ponytail on the picture) is, because she wants to say "I don´t style myself beautiful for you (=the people)". ;) Well, just an tabloid-analysis

Have we seen Daniel since the end of the New York venture ?

I was just moaning :flower: about the uneven edge along the top. Looks like a Walmart Special this way.

Oh. :yuk:

Well, WE haven´t seen Daniel II, but probably she has. This Letizia-thing should us make more distrustful ;) But I still wonder if Victoria still lives at Drottningholm, or at Daniel´s cosy flat???

Hehe, Walmart-yes, maybe a little bit, but it looks nice on her, Mary´s (dress) looks a little bit prudish (just a little bit, and compared to the Mary Donaldson from 2000 and compared to the Walmart-girl ;) )

Interesting reaction!

I'm sure Frederik liked it just fine :innocent: (I know I did :innocent: )

That's a yes, is it ? :)

I think I don´t want to know, which clothes Frederik really like on his Mary :P

A "yes" on what? A yes on your reaction. A yes on it, that this psychologist was/is crazy. A yes on it, that Victoria shouldn´t wear ponytails. A yes on it, that I have less agreements with you KC (but I loooove our discussions) :)
