Mette-Marits coat from national day in 2000(!) and Maximas wedding dont seem to fit so well anymore, but since she wore a proper hat with the hair done I will live it alone  I dont know how many times Sonjas has worn this leather outfit, not my favourite

There'll be a gala dinner tonight. Since this is a State Visit (and not an Official Visit or whatever) I think it will be a Tiara event. 
I hope we'll see some new dresses... but I don't think so. Both, the Queen and the Crown Princess wore new dresses at Harald's birthday and it seems the Norwegian Royal women rarely buy new galadresses. 
I hope Princess Märtha-Louise will attend the gala dinner, too.

Well, Larzen, that´s very generous of you, that you let the CPrincess of Norway choose her outfits by herself... 
This coat is a very elegant one and there´s no reason what so ever not to
wear a a 3rd time!
All royal persons, male or female or what country they might come from,
wear their official outfits several times - it´s nothing "typical norwegian".
And this is more than fair enough.

It's one of my favourite dresses in Sonja's collection. This bright red colour suits her alot. ... and I simply love the Queen Maud Pearl Tiara!

It seemed that Princess Astrid did not attend the Banquet?However, the Queen and the Crown Princess looked great, nice choice of gala dresses.

No, I don´t think it´s new. I believe it´s the one she wore for a reception
at Oslo´s townhall for the state visit of the imperial couple of Japan(?)
I´m always impressed about the youthful and fresh looks of Queen Sonja.
I am happy she chose Queen Mauds Pearl tiara this time since she doesn´t
wear it that often.
