They had some stylish glasses back in 1583 methinks...
The thing on Frederik's lapel has that got something to do with Mexico?

Ah long dresses and the rain, this should be a quick trip from the car to the covered walkway. Like the color of Marie's gown tonight.

I assume the yellow scarf (what's-the-name) is a Mexican order?

The sash is the Aztec Eagle order.
Heads of state are awarded the collar (Marge got it in 2008). Henrik got his sash in 2008 as well. As a consort he doesn't have a collar like his wife, but he has a different one then his sons and daughter in laws.

Frederik and Mary just arrived - very relaxed
Did they arrive in Krone 1?
Mary in a recycled long red gown and her new tiara. And also wearing a yellow order? Mexican?

Yes its the Order of the Aztec Eagle. Marge and Henrik got it in 2008. The younger couples got it this visit it seems.

I really like this new tiara of Mary's! It's so pretty.
(I have noticed that Mary does not wear the big ruby parure to events where the visiting guests of honour are not wearing tiaras.)

And what a Danish wheather... Sorry Mexican friends...

I'm pretty sure that it was Krone 2.
That new tiara must be a new favourite, since she wore it twice in a row. Well it's lovely, imho.
My livestream broke of for a short time. Have the Queen and Prince Henrik already arrived? Or are they already in the building.

What I missed the first time I read, among the list of people entitled to the 'special' sash/band is a 'hereditary prince/ss'. So Fred has the same sash as his father.

I have seen the video again. You're correct. F&M arrived in Krone 2. Just the 'bigger' car, don't they?
Margrethe and Henrik are waiting inside. We won't see them arriving.

Is the Mexican First Lady also in a red gown?

The live link reports that there appears to be a delay in the schedule.
They will show from inside the banquet hall shortly.
ADDED: As far as I can tell from the empty chairs it will be at least another five minutes before the DRF and the Mexican First Couple enter the hall.
I see Mary has the PM as table partner. (Personally I'd rather have a toothache). Our Marie is more lucky I think.

very fun start of the visit.
the first lady of mexico seems to always look composed and collected in the different events she attends. not too estrident, but captivating in a second plane....
i liked the recycled coat from saudi arabia that mary was wearing. shame we didn't get to see more of joachim and marie during the day, but i guess only one couple is enough to escort the visitors.
funny that the president insisted on mads mikkelsen being present. maybe he is a james bond fan? :)
who is this lady in black? is she a translator?

 Indeed. Everybody knows Sweden is the capital city of Oslo.
I'm more puzzled they consider 12 degrees C as chill! Why, you can almost wear a T-shirt today.
