Well I liked Maxima's leather jacket, but I also loved Mary's skirt. Made the outfit just a little bit funky and was somewhat unexpected (coz the jacket is very tailored and she teamed it with a leather skirt!).
The Crown Princess received lots of gifts and flowers during her visit (check out the pic of the little princes and princesses... aren't they adorable?:) ). Not sure if it has been pointed out before, but the GAIA museum exhibits works from mentally handicapped artists (thanks to mayflower from CPMaryMB).
I like how the Crown Princess planned what she wanted to do (she wanted to work with the mentally ill) and now we're actually seeing her doing it. Love it - gives you a warm fuzzy feeling... setting and achieving goals and all that.
Mary looks more relaxed in her role now; she has a natural feel to her. Her smiles aren't forced and her body language is exhuding confidence. Brava to her.

They are fine now. Quite large photos, some of them.
Lol, you can say that again! :p Huuuuge photos! You can see that she's got quite a fairly translucent skin ... a bit like Nicole Kidman but with a yellowish tint to it (its because she's a brunette I think).
I have to say that I think Mary has to be the most elegant European Royal. I think she looks absolutely fabulous in her latest outfit. Not many Royal Ladies could get away with a leather skirt but Princess Mary makes it look fabulous!
