I have to say that Maxima looks lovely. Although I wonder if she is beginning to channel her mother in law with that very large hairdo! And while I think that she looks lovely, I do not like the order ribbon on a bare shoulder. It just does not look quite right.

Who knows if she volutarily returned it? Maybe her arm was twisted into returning it?!

No way!  All the big peices jewels that Maxima has worn are from the foundation of the Dutch RF, I think the only peice of expensive jewels she owns is her engagement ring, and the Tutti fruti necklace.

I do believe the citrine collection is hers. (bracelet,brooch and earrings)I may be wrong...anyone?  not to be confused with the fire opal set which is part of the Royal collection.

I've never seen this tiara before, that's why I thought I'd be new. Neither queen Beatrix or Juliana have owned it?
