I think she was incredibly indiscreet and that was the reason for her disappearing for ten months. I will have to agree to disagree with those who like her style. However, I agree completely with those who say she reminds them of the early Mary - because I've always had a suspicion that part...

Marie and Joachim They seem well-matched to me although I think she is a bit tacky and over-eager in her style - I don't care for the way she dresses. As for Alexandra being involved with Martin for years, I can't imagine that the marriage wasn't broken down by the time that began. It was...

I like the blue and white colors, very fresh, she should try the combo more often, but I have to say I don't care for the little puffed sleeves - they're a bit too girlish for a woman of 34 with a 9 month old son and and HRH in front of her name. It doesn't quite work for me. I think Mary is...

I saw better photos of the outfit on danishroyalwatchers and now I see it's shantung silk - no wonder it's moving around. But the sheen of the material is very appealing and makes the outfit much nicer than I originally thought. I think Mary often wears clothes that I suspect look better in...

A very tough shade to wear but she does manage it. I wish the material were less mulish or the fit better, and I love the hat.

I have to say I agree that the cargidan is a bit off with the elegant gown, which I like. A dressy shawl would have been far better. Not sure about the white - I have seen guests wear white at a wedding as long as it is set off by other colors. I like the gown - a different style for her.

Thanks so much for that link to MM and Haakon's wedding! But I can't get it to open and take me to a purchasing site! Can someone help?!

Well, I have to agree with those who didn't like Diana's dress. The material was beautiful but the design was overblown, overdone on top, and concealed rather than emphasized Diana's lovely long figure. It had no sophistication at all, and Diana herself mentioned years later that she hated it...

I think Mary's figure looked beautiful - Mette-Marit's figure is quite a bit fuller and she and Maxima look chunky next to Mary.

For the older bride I would have to go with Pss. Margaret - so tiny and exquisite. Grace Kelley for me ran second to that. And have we forgotten an absolutley stunning bride, Reza Pahlavi's (the current de facto Shah)? Did someone mention it above? She looked stunning, so slender and...

Hmmmm. I have to say that except for her red skirt with uneven layers at the luncheon, Mary looked gorgeous most of the time. Loved both gowns and the hairdos, and the top, hat, jacket and shoes for the luncheon, just didn't like the skirt. The second gown was a little wishy-washy in color...

Well, Mary is letting me down with these last two outfits, and the previous three were so lovely! I hate the hat . . . more appropriate for boutique shopping. I guess I am very old fashioned, I like beautfiully tailored suits and traditional hats on princesses at formal engagements. So far I...

Mary presents Scholarship Sorry to be the killjoy here but I think the outfit is awful I like the dusty rose color of the blouse, but it is too short, empasizes her new bustiness (she was very small there before her pregnancy) in an unflattering way, and makes her look dumpy. With some...

Mary looks lovely - I recognize the suit jacket - it has a matching tailored slim skirt that she wore with a kind of mauve hat with feathers on a couple of occasions in 2004. Might have liked lighter shoes with all that cream and beige, but the black is all right. Frederik looks a bit more...

Michelleq - I believe the fringe tiara dating from Qn. Victoria's reign, which can be worn as a necklace, has been copied - so has the Russian Kokoshnik tiara. And although the question is about tiaras, I am fairly certiain that the large pearl and diamond "festoon" necklace owned by the BRF...

Tiaras and Hair My personal favorite is Maxima's wedding tiara - just gorgeous and her hair was perfectly done for it. Mary's wedding tiara was boring and barely sparkled, although well placed on hair and veil.

Mary at recent events . . . I have to agree with the majority here - these two outfits are lovely and Mary looks great in them. And, glittering tiaras I agree with you completely on the purple hat she word when she unveiled her portrait - BIG MISTAKE, and with that lovely suit, too - how too...

Hello! Good morning - I am new to this forum and wish to greet everyone and introduce myself. I live in Santa Fe, NM, in the U.S. and have enjoyed following royalty since I was a little girl of 8! I have no particular favorites among the royal houses, and am particularly interested in jewelry...
