I love that jacket but not with the skirt.

M-M's bracelet is the "evil eye". I have one like it from the Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, FL. I liked it when I bought it, but now I find it creepy and will be donating it to the animal Flea Market in late April. Shiver...

That was my first thought when I saw a close-up of it... Creepy! Yuck.

Simply awful and extremely unflattering. With the loose jacket and belt, looks like she's put on 20 pounds. The heavy dark hose have to go. Do not like the makeup either.

Those thick black stockings have gotta go! Winter is over, time for spring.
Didn't she just recently wear a grey jacket? It would've gone nicely with this skirt.

I love the skirt! The print is not too bold, its colorful yet elegant. I like the match of the jacket but A more fitted or boxy jacket would've worked nicer. The tights were too thick for the look.

I think the pieces separately would look great but I'm not sure if I like them together though. MM looks great though and I like that she's experimenting with bold lip colors.

Err, I do think that Camilla dresses very nicely for her position, age and body shape, but I don't think Mette should dress like her.
Yes, she had a few faux pas in the last weeks, but she has looked splendid at the big events in the last about two years, the wedding in Sweden, Queen Margrethe's jubilee etc. etc. She's experimenting a lot and I think it's only natural that sometimes the result is not so great.
The only thing I really would change is her pancake make up and the shade of blond. She looked better with neutral/natural make up and haircolor IMO.

This beautiful skirt should have been worn separately, with other bright-coloured clothes and accessories. Why all that black in late March??

The calendar may say March, but perhaps the weather is still saying winter

Sure but I'm so out of the winter mode that I can't look at anything black anymore  - it was a hard winter anyway.
Her hairstyle is very interesting, this bun is pretty fun!

Today at a meeting with Pøbelprosjekt.

The grey jacket she's worn recently with the pink dress looks much better with pants. I'm not so keen on the shoes.

I actually like that look quite a lot; it's casual and pretty, and quite appropriate for the event. And most importantly, no black tights!
