I thought Princess Sofia was the best dressed lady yesterday. Great effort.

I liked Sofia's evening gown. It was a little too long for her but it had such a lovely dark blue color that I could not help but like it.
It was interesting choice to team her dress with the Amethyst tiara. Its also interesting to see how differently tiaras can be placed. Did not like this placement very much because it looked too far back on her head (but that was her hairdresser's fault and not hers).

The dress was just fine, despite my personal dislike for those collars.Still better than the one she wore during the nobels. The amethyst looked fine as well, but the placement of the tiara was wrong. She hasn't sported a polished gala updo since her wedding. For this reason, I think she should just fire her hairstylist.

That dress, taken alone, is awful, but strangely enough, it looks good on Sofia. The shoes not so much.

A mess is the perfect word for that dress. Someone needs to remove all the hair gel from that household. Both she and her husband would look much better without it.

I think it's actually a jacket and skirt. It is odd, but she wears it well.

This appears to be from the same line as the gown Madeleine wore in December or a close copy there of. I realize that Sofia is trying to find a 'Royal look', but oftentimes she appears to be basically copying her SIL. Like the Nobels last year when on the 2nd night Sofia wore essentially the exact gown that Madeleine had worn on the first night.

The pink evening dress. Love the color. I don't love the rest of it. It's very tablecloth looking.

I think that the day set is something I would never wear, would not pick for her, but as someone else said, she pulls it off.
That blush pink dress is to die for.
All these looks the last two days are very covered up. I wonder if that's where her taste is heading and/or if she just chills easily in the winter.
I had jury duty last week and the defendant was so chilled, he pulled his arms inside his short-sleeved shirt. I felt for him. I feel for anyone who is either easily chilled or hot!

Thoroughly disappointed. After a great day yesterday, a fantastic day dress (minus headpiece) and lovely evening look (save long hem and bad tiara place) I had big hopes for today.
Both looks remind me of the nobels where her second day look, looked like an attempt to dress like Madeleine.
Her day dress was too much. I liked the pattern and top half. But the pleated skirt was too much, paired with the busier print, was too much. And the band around the bottom was bizarre. If it had not had pleats, more Aline, it would be much better, and no band. Much prefer the color to the odd black flowers on Madeleine yesterday.
The evening dress the only nice thing I can say is lovely color
It looks like she out a lace panel over a sundress to look more modest. Reminds me of the duggars and their modesty pannels. The 3D flowers I find ugly and way too much. And the collar honestly looks like it was cut off a different dress and added here.
Sofia really should stick to the simple classic styles we saw yesterday. They suit her. And realize that in her attempt to be the opposite of her former sexy persona, she doesn't need to play old maid.

Madeleine's dress was designed by Fadi El Khoury, Sofia's dress yesterday evening was designed by Ida Sjöstedt. The dress has a nice colour but it is too long and would suit better for an older lady. It would have looked better without that thing on the neck, and with a full slip or camisole.
