The blue dress and the tiara was a big wow. She looked every inch the Queen. Stunning.

Maxima was AMAZING! Definately the best dressed at this Investiture, I guessed before that she would wear blue, and I got it right! Thankfully she choose this strong color, this shade of blue was and is always regal looking.
The dress was beautiful as well and I actually like the lace in her arm, it looks diferent.
Beautiful hairdo, beautiful shoes, beautiful 60s cape and GROGEOUS jewels! I could look at that Mellerio sapphire Tiara all day long.

I loved Maxima's morning dress. It was soft and elegant and her hair and jewellery were perfect. It was obvious she had chosen her colour to allow Beatrix to shine on her last day. The juxtaposition of colour and style was quite striking.
Then, having lulled us into a sense of oh, "sensible", she pulled out all the stops and wore one of the most beautiful gowns I have ever seen on her. Everything was perfect, the colour, the dress, the makeup, the hair and the tiara. This afternoon she was a Queen.
Definitely the way to go from a Princess to a Queen overnight.

Great observation, MARG. There was definitely that dichotomy between the two styles for both events and Maxima, knowing the sense of occasion, dressed appropriately. She knocked it out of the park for the inauguration ceremony; everything was perfect including her tiara hair. Maxima looked very born to the role.

Maxima had what Maxima does best - the show stopping formal dress. The colour was the highlight - it is appropiate and stands out and works perfectly with the stunning sapphire jewels. She looked amazing and the perfect Queen today. Her hair was lovely as well.

I absolutely love the Natan dress she wore this morning! Her hair was lovely too.
It was a delight to watch her.
Her blue gown for later was one of her best. Actually her best. She looked so elegant. Maxima ha always come across as vibrant, playful and fun. Today she was regal!

It feels so good reading the title of the thread, doesn´t it? 
I liked the outfit, she was awesome. I didn´t like the lace details on the dress, they looked odd with the cape on. I think the look would have been better without all the lace, but everything else was amazing.
Love, love, love the hair and the tiara
