Random Royaling – Slovenia Visits Norway (Tiara Action!)

Slovenia’s President Borut Pahor visited the Norwegian royals today, and let’s just cut to the tiaras first, shall we?

Thanks to our Norwegian community member Ween we know that Sonja is wearing a 25 year old dress by Eric Mortensen, along with Queen Maud’s Pearl and Diamond tiara. I think we can add Sonja to the Princess Anne school of “retaining both your figure and your wardrobe” club. It is a small and elite group for sure.

Two days ago we had an AWWWWW father daughter moment between Felipe and Leonor, and today it’s a lovely mother son photo. I am intrigued by the brown boot choice, it works better than I expected.

Sonja was very blue-y during the welcome ceremonies. It’s definitely worth it to click through the photos to see the gifts of fishing equipment for King Harald from his guest. There was obviously some father/son joking going on there – fill it in with your best imagination.

Kongen og Dronningen ønsket Slovenias president Borut Pahor velkommen i dag. Det er første gang en slovensk president er på statsbesøk til Norge, og Kongeparet er vertskap for besøket. Det hele startet med høytidelig velkomstseremoni på Slottsplassen og kransnedleggelse på Akershus festning. Teknologi og Det grønne skiftet blir viktige tema under besøket. Utveksling av gaver er en del av tradisjonen. Slovenia deler den norske entusiasmen for ski og friluftsliv, og President Pahor hadde med seg slovenske ski til Kronprinsen og et sett med fluer til den ivrige fluefiskeren, Kong Harald.

Ween has promised to translate some Harald quips for us! I, for one, am all ears!
