i totally agree, she does look more "pulled toghether"
and she started the wear brouches on her shirts

Máxima has worn a lot of brooches in the last years, so that's nothing new

[MARG]

I think Max has always had a lot going on. She seems a flamboyant personality and dresses with a very South American flair instead of European classic. I think sometimes her wonderfully whimsical brooches have been overlooked by hair hanging over them or eclipsed by huge, colourful earrings, etc. The wee gems got just a little swamped or just plain overlooked.

Love Maxima's whole wardrobe for Germany. She is doing a great job representing her country. When her hair is neat it really shows what a stunning woman she is. I wonder if now she is traveling with hairdresser or stylist. She never seems to have one unless she was traveling with Queen Bea but I think she deserves to have it herself now.

quote from vee:
Re the hairstyling:

The thought HAD crossed my mind that after all the shouting with this is over, Max might be lucky to have two hairs left on her head to call her own. All that changing up of hairstyles is a whole LOT of stress to put on ANYBODY'S head, let alone the head of a Queen of a country.

The other side of that coin is that she IS Da Queen. So, I figure she will more than probably have one of the top hairstylists in her country (or the world, for that matter) traveling with her and seeing to it that all the hair work doesn't badly damage her hair and leave her looking like a bejeweled egg.

vee I think she uses a lot of heair pieces, the same as Mary, but she must have the beat treatments for her hair but you are right so many times a day changing her heair style it is a lot for any hair. but she is really a showgirl, alwayssmiling and with great enthuusiasim, one read about Zara, complaining about all that and how heavy was the tiaras to carry while Andrews ws resting she had to be there 2 hour with a hearstylist to get ready for the ocasion, i guess she didn't apreciate what she had , contrary Maxima I think she knows what she has and it is happy of what she is doing and she shows it! good for her!

Never would've thought of it this way on my own, but I agree with you that essentially, Max IS a showgirl. I also agree with you that she's a smart cookie in that she all too well KNOWS what she's got in WA, her girls, PB, her position and extended Dutch family, and she's grateful for ALL of that. So, especially with her innate South American flair that MARG spoke of, good or bad, we'll NEVER have a dull fashion moment with Maxima.

I would LOVE to spend an afternoon kiting around to various shops with her, or just hanging out!

And no, I can't WAIT to see what she'll step out in, next.

I don't think I'll EVER get tired of tuning in to MAX TV!!!!!!!

Queen Máxima in Houten today, June 7, wearing a nice recycled coat and dress combination - this time with a hat:

Lovely outfit!

[Daria_S]

I love the color and style of the coat.

[bertie5252003]

I think this is awful doesn't seem to fit and is too short or am I not seeing something and the hat YUK !!!! IMO

[MARG]

I think Max is going to keep recycling her clothes for some time. New items will gradually replace the old and, hopefully, her skirt lengths will not be quite so high.

That being said, 'step away from the hat'! IMO that and her hair are the only things that save the ensemble from total Meh!

The connection of most of the outfits is weak, and I'm appalled that the regal Maxima would ever be compared to the likes of the real housewives. But I am happy to see Buzzfeed randomly give a shout-out to the world's newest queen :-)

[4Pam]

Maxima has never dressed like any of those women- they dressed like her! What an awful comparison!

[Frelinghighness]

Love the pink and beige dress and coat. Ditto on the skirt length, she needs to cover those knees, they do detract from her appearance.

Máxima lovely in blue in Limburg and Noord-Brabant today, June 12, it's a recycled Natan dress.

Awful comparisons, I agree! Queen Maxima is educated and elegant, while I find most tv-starlets rather tacky and not overly smart and inspirational (of course, there are exceptions).
However, as this is a fashion thread:Except for 1,2 and 7 Queen Maxima has worn it much much better than the women she was compared to

It is only normal that women wear something similar from time to time because we can buy the same fashion magazines, watch the same movies/tv-shows and most fashion brands are international, so it is not a surprise that sometimes two celebrities or a royal and a celebrity wear the same clothes!
What I noticed is that Mathilde of Belgium and Queen Maxima sometimes chose similar designs from Natan

[rubies]

Love the navy dress. Wow are those some high heels!

This Natan dress I love! Love it and it fits her well.

[Shelo]

This dress looks great on her. I thought the hat was fine until I saw it from behind. It is awful.
