Royal Trip of the Day: May 21

On Tuesday, Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary kicked off their official visit to Germany. The trip ends today.
You know how Mary has the whole well put together schtick down so pat, it can even be boring? Yeah. That's what I'm feeling here.
Mary's Tory Burch jacket, and the evening event on day 1.

She did repeat a David Andersen white dress of which I am quite fond, but other than that...meh.
Day 2 started with something very familiar - in two different countries, even - and ended with something that is not. Sound the Jumpsuit Alarm! (This one's from Ole Yde, per StyleofMary.)
It looks like a maxi dress with a belt and fluttery sleeves, but that's actually a sneaky pair of trousers, which puts us squarely in Jumpsuit Territory. Always cause for concern - not because jumpsuits are always bad (they're not my favorite pieces, but they can work), but because toning them down for royal dressing purposes can go so very wrong.
Oddly enough, this one isn't setting off as many alarm bells as the description alone does. Maybe it's because the trousers are loose enough to trick me into believing it's a skirt....or maybe I'm just still half asleep from the first part of the visit.

Royal Style Twins of the Day: January 15

Royal Style Twins of the Day: January 15

Queen Letizia made an appearance at the Telefónica Ability Awards this week in a classic black and white ensemble, including a high-waisted full black skirt, a white Hugo Boss top, black heels, and her de Grisogono black diamond earrings. (The earrings are an older pair that have made a recent reappearance, no doubt part of her quest to stake out her position as the Earring Queen.)
I don't know about you, but it always takes me a moment to recognize Letizia in a full skirt - a sheath dress, sure, you'd know that was Letizia from a mile away, but this kind of skirt makes me do a double take. Especially in an outfit like this, which looks a whole lot like one we've already seen elsewhere:
These two ladies have quite a bit of wardrobe cross over, actually, since they're both big fans of Hugo Boss. Crown Princess Mary wore her version of this basic combination during her visit to Canada in 2014, and her skirt (made of a more textured fabric than Letizia's) is from Danish designer Signe Bøgelund-Jensen. No matter who wears it, this is a plain enough combination, and you need something to add some interest. Letizia went for a red lip and those earrings, while Mary opted for snakeskin Louboutins and a thin belt to accent the skirt's thick waistband. Still, I'm not sure either version is particularly memorable. Et toi?

Royal Outfits of the Day: October 9

First, a programming note: No Tiara Thursday post today. I know, it's a bummer. Instead, I offer you a grab bag of recent (recent-ish...) appearances from some of our leading ladies:

Mary's been really busy lately. Lots of standard fare in the outfit department, with a couple standouts. This gray sheath is really elegant, although it might be crossing the line into too simple territory?

She was in a bit of a simple sheath mood, also sporting a purple number with leopard print shoes as a fun little accent.

Of course, there's animal print and then there's ANIMAL PRINT, and if you want the caps lock version then you need to talk to the caps lock queen.
Queen Máxima visited a social employment agency this week.
I'm suddenly feeling nostalgic for simple gray sheath dresses.

Good thing we can always count on Mathilde to serve as a tranquil tonic to whatever else comes our way, right?
Queen Mathilde accompanied King Philippe on a visit to the Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe last week.  
She's making good use of all these similar dresses she ordered, and I'm okay with her making this her signature collar style. She makes it regal.

One more for the road:
Queen Letizia attended the annual Red Cross Fundraising Day yesterday.
I'm developing a serious weakness for a great windowpane print, but I think I'm loving this. It keeps with her style, and yet it's not a plain gray business suit. Yeah, put me down for a thumbs up.
