Appeltjes van Oranje, Annual Oranje Fonds Award (2005-2024)


If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
A nice foundation IMO, giving attention (and money) to all these small project. Blauw Bloed had a short interview with a woman from the Antilles who won a prize, she was very happy with her 'apple' as it was designed (and made?) by HM The Queen.

Funny that Maxima started her speech with thanking her mother-in-law for being allowed to use the ballroom of Palace Noordeinde.

Princess Maxima looked nice btw, she might have used some of her time in Argentina to buy some new clothes as she hasn' t been wearing many new stuff from Brussels lately (fortunately).

Speech by HRH,and yes,it's designed and made,by HM.:)

Princess Máxima looks beautiful. What a lovely outfit!

I'm glad to see them smiling again :flowers:
 
Love the skirt! shoes and hair are OK.

But she really needs to get a good bra!
 
It is good to see the Dutch Royals continuing with their events and engagements after a difficult time. Princess Maxima is as enthusiastic as always.

I like her neater hairstyle and I'd like her to adopt it for her casual events. The jewelry was nice and her shoes were flattering. I'm in agreement though that the top would look better on her if she invested in some better bras.

The apples of Orange is a an award that is handed out by the Orange fund. The Orange fund is a merger of various royal charities, among them the fund that the prince of Orange and princess Maxima received as a wedding present.

Nte that the Queen makes the awards (bronze aples) herself. Sculpting has been a hobby of her for decades.

Maxima's outfit is indeed terrible, but what else is new? Sigh.
