On May 13, Queen Maxima paid a working visit to Scouting Estate Zeewolde. The visit focused on the activities of water scouting and projects in the field of sustainability. Scouting Estate Zeewolde is located in the Horsterwold nature reserve, on the banks of the Nuldernauw. Scouts and non-scouts camp on the site on sheltered camping fields inside the dike in the forest or outside the dike on the water. On 13 June 2015, Scouting Estate Zeewolde was opened by Queen Maxima, patroness of Scouting.

  1. These brown loafers are from Tod's. I like it when Maxima - and other queens and royal ladies too - is wearing flat shoes instead of the usual skyhigh 10 cm heels which must be very uncomfortable. The suit suits her. She seems very at ease wearing it.

    1. My thoughts exactly. Heels would have looked hideous with that suit anyway. Plus she doesn´t need the height.
      The suit is not my taste, but that´s mainly because of these very wide, unflattering and too short trousers.
      But again - yay for these sensible and comfortable shoes, especially for the terrain she was in.

    2. Yes I think the "suit suits" her fairly well and has a good design.

    Given that this was a casual meeting with an outdoor Scout group, I'll cut Maxima's slacks some slack and say that they look fine in a casual outdoor Scouting setting. And I think they do, especially with the large turn-up style detail. The low heeled shoes are also stylish and appropriate to the outfit, and Maxima's hasty tie-back and sunglasses emphasise the casual nature of the outdoor portion of the event. Nice.

    Terrible choice of trousers. Black ones or even jeans would be so much better. Top half is good. The shoes are practical but would so much better with different pants. Km

    Why Máxima, why? I don’t dislike cropped pants when they have good tailoring and are worn with the right kind of shoe, but these are just all wrong, with the enormous cuffs, the width of the leg and the material that looks so heavy( perhaps is not). The jacket doesn’t help much it’s tight and she is either bra less or is wearing a terrible one, the bust line is awful.

    I really like the jacket and would love to see a slimmer, tailored trouser with it. Shoes and accessories are excellent. (V.M.)

      Yes, my thoughts as well; not a bad look, but with a different pair of trousers it would have been a great look for QM.

    I think she looks very pretty. Her hair is good, her jacket and trousers are appropriate for the occasion, her shoes, earrings and bag, especially the large chain-like strap, are a great match, and, of course, her happy demeanor is her greatest asset.

    I like how Maxima looks in her jacket but absolutely not that trousers. Flat shoes are okay for such a outdoor meeting but she could chose much nicer flat shoes. This ones are too heavy looking and wrong color.

    Top half is great as are her loafers--she looks great today. But those trousers!!! I really hope the suit came with full length trousers because the ones Max is wearing are awful. I like cropped pants but this pair is just terrible.

    Salvo giacca e scarpe, ma non mi piace il pantalone cropped con quel risvolto che lo appesantisce e tra l’altro schiaccia la figura, anche se sei alta. Sarebbe stato meglio indossare un jeans o altro pantalone gamba dritta morbida.

    These pants do nothing for her and they wouldn't look good on any woman on the planet.

  13. Jolie petite veste mais sans ce pantalon qui ne l'avantage pas surtout avec ses jambes larges dans des chaussures plates ; je pense qu'en portant une jupe ou même des jeans, elle aurait plus d'allure !

  14. It was too good to last--several great outfits followed by this horror. I would concede that the jacket paired with a pair of plain dark trousers or jeans would have been okay. Obviously heels were inappropriate but these shoes are hideous--don't care how high end they are--when paired with these trousers. Again they would have looked fine with jeans . A pair of smart white trainers, or flat sandals or deck shoes. could have done the job.equally well. Hair still looking good.

    This could have been such a wonderful suit with wonderful accessories, if it were not for the horrible trousers.

    Outfit makes her look chubby, pants too short

  18. The Queen looks great, appropriate for the occasion. I love the jacket, as previously mentioned a slimmer fit pants would look good, regardless the Queen looks great. Love the flat shoes, earrings and bag.
