Is this the same tiara which Princess Marie wore at her wedding, or am I mistaken?

No , it is not Marie's tiara she wore on her wedding day . But I never saw before the tiara the Queen wore for the Official Banquet of to-day.

I think that for once Margarthe nearly got it right with her choice of gown. However, I could really wish that she had only worn the pearl choker, and some other earrings. She wears far too many necklaces.

Oh, we are now on a state visit. This red hat has made an appearance at many a visit, so this visit is now almost complete :biggrin: QMII's polka-dot suit is the only thing missing that might be in her suitcase!

At the State Banquet , the Queens wears her mother's turquoise bandeau.
