Maxima looks wonderful. I love seeing photos of her when she is on the job. She never looks anything other than completely interested and engaged in her duties.

she use the jacket in one of the baptisim! lovely!
 
Similar clothes to Mathilde's once again.

She is good in that what she is doing and know what she is doing.
 
I do love Maxima, she is a lovely intelligent lady, who seems always genuinly interested in the things she does. Only one thing.... is there anyone who can tell her to do something with her hair. Oh dear it looks really bad on the last photo's, it looks "i have just come out of my bed and didn't have time to comb it" what a pity
 
I'm impressed with Princess Maxima's knowledge on this subject.
 
Thank you, thank you so much for posting these videos! She sounds a little strange for an Argentinian, maybe it´s the influence of Dutch. Let´s not forget she studied Economics, but she has obviously prepared herself on this particular subject..
 
Very well done, Máxima! :) I really liked to hear the princess talking about this topic. She's not only well prepared as she seems to really Believe in what she's saying. This is not a hobby for her, but something she cares a lot. I hope she continues like this.
 
it is great her work andwhat she is doing for the poeple . may i ask this is aquestion to the british people, here in this forums? for me she sounds very british whenshe speaks but i might be wrong does she has an accent when she speaks english, like can you listen her argentinenan accent?
 
I saw the video at another site and was quite impressed by Maxima. She was clearly very knowledgeable about the subject and was able to answer the questions fluidly and eloquently.

As far as her accent goes, I found it more Dutch than anything else and bizarrely thought there was a slight English intonation as well.
 
I was also very impressed with CP Maxima's expertise in this field, as well as with her excellent English. Being American, I unfortunately speak English in that nasal-Yankee style (if I could do something about it, believe me, I would). To me, her accent was very lovely. Her English was perfect, and her intonation and pronunciation were very clear. Her rhythm is nearly similar to that of a native speaker.
 
In an interview released this morning HRH states she will be critical before accepting new international functions/jobs in the
future,but she is open to new challenges in the field of micro-credit.It will have to be interesting enough,have content and
effect,and moreover,it should be easy to combine with her family and the work she already does here in The Netherlands.

The Princess gave the interview as the UN Council on Inclusive Sectors will be desolved as of today as its job is done.
HRH has been a member of this UN council for 4 years.

HRH will remain a member of the national council for micro-credit.

i loved seeing maxima in the al jazeera interview. she really seems knowledgeable, intelligent and prepared. a true joy to see a princess doing something that really has an impact in international diplomacy.

Lovely! Isn't this the second time that she has worn this outfit? The first time for the Queens birthday or something? Anyway, I like it better when she is not wearing the matching pants. Her hair and makeup are also great!
 
I think she has never worn it before.
She has worn that .

Ah, that's right. Thank you for pointing it out. The one she wore the other day is much better. The one in your post above was just horrible in my opinion. Not to mention a bit too tight in various private areas.
