I felt sorry for Mette-Marit, she didn't look like she was feeling fantastic.

It's always enlightening to read what others have picked up on! I looked at many pics of this event before reading any posts and I never thought Mette-Marit looked under the weather! It was not until much later that I read some posts and saw that another poster said MM hadn't been feeling well the day before this visit. Well, we all see things differently. But I have to say that if she is under the weather she's done a great job disguising it, imo.

And the Queen.... I'm not a fan of the gown at the tiara combination

I can´t belive the queen is 70 year old. She looks so beautiful and active. She is such a beautiful woman.

I like her pink dress but she doesn't look good on it specially on the photos. I meana the top of that dress. She looks like athletically (her shoulders).

I like the yellow gown - suits her. There are not many women who look good in this colour.

Crown Princess Mette-Marit, as splendid as she is and as much as I like her...enough with the curling wands!

And as with her friend and Danish counterpart, her wedding tiara just doesn't cut 'it'. Sure, it's a nice piece but...

I find her style is particularly boring. Pink looks great on her and in all fairness there are a few evening gowns which suit her very well but for the most part, her choices aren't really all that flattering which is a shame because she could look stunning if some real thought were put into it. I'm not talking fashion icon, merely a wardrobe which both compliments her position and shape.

She is a stunner of a woman and I can envision her in some gorgeous things.

Arghh..send me to Oslo
