Hofdame Bits and Bobs

The Handbag

As anyone who follows royals knows, there was a christening last week, and for the “slow” summer period, quite a bit more. Let’s hit it.

Tours

Crown Princess Mary can’t get enough of Paris, it seems. The Danish Court announced that she and Crown Prince Frederick will make an official business visit to Paris on October 7th and 8th.

Queens in Training

King Willem-Alexander and the shockingly grown up Princess of Orange, Catharina-Amalia, attended the World Cup Women’s final between the U.S. and the Netherlands. I am sorry for our Orange friends about the loss, although as a U.S. citizen, I can’t be *that* sorry. Princess Ariane was there as well.

Two Queens in Training on vacation, just like us. I am a bit of a jeans jacket connoisseur and I want this one. Fortunately, it’s a look I can afford. I also like Estelle’s ready for anything life vest action.

Actual Queens a Queening

ROYGBIV Checkin: Tils: Yellow! Leti: White! Max: Blue! I really wish I had a green entry for you but alas, no. We go to (the utterly adorable) Sonja: Red!

Classic Edition Princesses

One of the classiest Classic Edition Princesses attended a 100th anniversary event for Danish Scouting, and managed to place the knotted scout scarf precisely on her lapel. Which is why she is a princess and I am not.

The Princess Royal was in her element, in uniform, as she attended the 50th anniversary of a Navy nuclear base. Anne in uniform means all is well with the world.
