Thanks for the pics. It looks like there were a bunch of people there. It's kind of neat to see a royal doing an engagement in khakis, sneakers, and a rain type jacket.
Well if she went to visit a national park on the mountain in high heels like Letizia did some months ago, we would laugh her out of the country:p That might work in Spain but Sonja always wears such clothes (ofcourse it depends on the weather, she was there for 3,5 hours) with trainers or mountain boots. This was a typical Sonja engagement, but I think its good for her to do such things as well, two new national parks are a big deal, even if they are somewhat controversial.

I always have the impression that she feels much more comfortable in "everyday" clothing instead of the formal dresses. What do you think?

Well I always feel more comftarble in flats than in stilettos:p In the beginning she hardly knew how to walk in heels and seemed to avoid it as often as possible.

What I think she does absolutly worst is ultra formal day wear when she needs to wear a hat, like day-weddings, nobel and other superformal events with the Queen sending her watchful eyes:p . She used to look absolutly stiff, hardly a smile and slouching as well and sort of hiding under the hat, but I did think she wore a couple of the hats this last week quite well, and she obiously feels more comterble in heels now they are VERY tall recently and she can walk resenable well in them judging from TV. Actually I think it is the situation more than the outfit that gives her confidence, this was a relaxed informal event, just as the last week was just about celebrations, those who dont like the monarchy dont show up, excpet part of the socialist goverment who has to be there, but they are polite enough;)

BTW, Haakon opened the International Summerschool at the university of Oslo last night, zero covereage on TV or in the papers as I have seen, maybe he should start wearing a hat and stilettos to get some attention;)

He could borrow some high heeled boots from his brother-in-law. ;)

One of Mette-Marit's hats would increase his chances of getting some coverage.

I've got the perfect attention grabbing attire for Haakon....
Mette-Marit's hat from Charles and Camilla's wedding and her yellow boots.:D

And a suit to recycle her shocking pink dress from Thailand (it wasn't that hot anyway). :)
 
Those clothes make Mette-Marit look young. Like she barely turned 12 or whatever. But I loves it.
 
I really like Mette-Marit and I think it's apparant from the pictures above that she's enjoying life :)

I don't know if its' the lighting, but I honestly think Mette-Marit should cut down on the hydro peroxide.

It's just not fit for a future queen to crave for a hair colour that resembles the average Hollywood wannabe bimbo :(

Someone should remind her that she's royal. She doesn't have to compete with anyone else about her position.

If royals can't stand up for themselves and their natural looks, how can we see them as role models ?? :confused:
 
Larzen, thanks for the additional pictures of MM. She really looks glowing on these pictures

She is a great princess with so many potential, and i surely hope she'll do more royal duties after the summer holiday.

I think her blonde hair colour is okay, and she looks good in it, including with the hair style. But, every now and then, we often see her hair just like that, and i think it's time to style them differently every now and then.

dont think she is dying her hair to compete with any one , she dye's it because she wants too!! its got nothing to do with her standing up for herself if she goes natural or not !!!!!!!!

well I must say I don't like at all the way she dress, I think comparing with other Princess she should be more careful in the way she dresses, she dress very badly, she should spruce oneself up!!!!She doesnt dress smartly at all!!!
 
Maybe I am being a bit naive...but what makes you think she is dyeing her hair. I need to check out pics of when she was pregnant with both children...her hair looked the same..and I know its recommended that you NOT dye your hair while expecting.

I would agree that sometimes MM's style is dress if off..but I hardly think she resembles a Hollywood bimboo.
 
I don't think there is anything wrong with Mette-Marit's hair, I like the color very much. She has had the same hair color the whole time she's been a princess so I don't see how it would make a big difference what her hair looks like now. I think if MM loaded her hair up with hair spray and teased it to no end then yes, she would look like a hollywood bimbo like Anna Nicole Smith or Britney Spears but she hasn't done anything like that, she's always been very classy with her hair.

What makes you think M-M dyes her hair? Many people from Norway, and Scandinavia in general, have blonde hair that shade and other shades. I don't think she dyes her hair, because if you look back through pictures, her hair colour doesn't change and you can't see any sign of dark roots.
 
must say I think she is lovely , weather she dye's her hair or not .

1 Right after engagement, I love this length and color on her, and I belive this is her natural color
2 Right after the wedding.
3 With roots showing quite well, thankfully she is better at touching up her roots right not but I still prefer her natural color

This is the first picture I have seen of M-M with roots, so I stand corrected.
I agree, the first colour & length looks very nice on her, she should get her hairdresser to make her hair like this more often!
 
Her natural color of hair is wonderful! It is so unusual color, that I wonder, why she agreed to change it on blonde. And cut of hair is too nice, but I think, it isn't good cut for princess ;).

I believe in post 100 (made by Larzen) the pic in the black dress shows pretty obviously that Mette-Marit dyes her hair.

I guess she was momentarily cutting down on the peroxide due to a pregnancy :confused:

If peroxide is a shade, yes many Scandinavian women have that ''shade''. To my knowledge there are more peroxide blondes in Scandinavica than natural ones. (It's in the blood for people to look blonde even if they are not.)

I think that CP Mette-Marit's natural hair colour would be something that we in Norway call mousy blonde (or muncipality blonde). Many women have that hair colour, and thus choose to dye it blonder (or darker) than it is, to give the hair a more vivid colour.

I think that most women do something "chemical" to their hair now and then, whether it is dying, stripes, curls or straigthening. I thought that was what women did, fussing about their hair (never being satisfied :) ), so why not princesses?!?
 
I much prefare Mette-Marit as a blonde, obviously we know she is not a natural blonde but she was born to be a blonde.

I agree. i like her hairstyle and hair color from picture one much better than it is now.
 
I always thought MM hair color was natural. Now I can see that it's 'not real'.:p I think she looks great in it. And I think there is nothing with royal woman dying her hair.:)

I think, almost every royal lady is dying her hair. Cp Mary's color hair was dark brown, but she changed it on black...
I don't know, what is bad in it.

I´ve read in a serious local newspaper that HRH the Crownprincess
will visit Hamburg, Germany, on Oct. 18th in an official function!
The purpose is to open the Norwegian general consulate, it is a two day visit
http://www.welt.de/data/2006/09/08/1027498.html
The wife of the Norwegian Crown Prince Haakon, princess Mette-Marit, will visit Hamburg. She Arrives on 17 October on the occasion of the reopening of the Norwegian General Consulate and will take part in a festive evening, said the designate Norwegian Consul General Morten Paulsen.

Crown Princess Mette-Marit had to cancel her visit to Hamburg in May 2002 due to an illness at short notice (sun burn). At that time Crown Prince Haakon traveled to Hamburg without here.

Mette Marit will remain to 18 October in Hamburg. She will also have a meeting with mayor Ole von Beust in the city hall, where she will sign in the golden book of the city, said Paulsen. Subsequently, the new Consul General will take over its office business.

With the reopening 2003 of the closed Consulate General in Hamburg draws in 25 coworkers. Beside the Norwegian export advice, that is shifted from Duesseldorf to Hamburg, which is network advisor to “innovation Norway” also the “Norwegian Seafood Council” will find its place in the new consulat.

From the Norwegian embassy, in german, the coplete agenda will be released later
