      Agree, Mary T. Reminds me of the ‘pinnies’ (overalls) my Granny wore 😂

    I like the dress and the shoes look very fashionable and summery. Queen Mathilde's earrings look good. I thought I had a speck on my screen the King looks like he has got a sore lip.(Tara)

  3. Jolies couleurs très fraîches qui lui vont à merveille même si la robe est trop cachée à mon goûr ; belle coordination de la cravate de Philippe avec la couleur de son costume !

      It could be Queen Mathilde bought the fabric for this coat during the last state visit to Congo. It does not look like the fabrics and colors used by Dries.

    I think the combination of the coat with a pink dress is not so good. I would have chosen a plain blue dress (the same blue one can find in the print of the coat). If I remember correctly QM has shoes in the same blue. The pink shoes she is wearing here are old and not beautiful anymore.

    Mir gefällt das nicht. Der König sieht sehr gut aus in diesem hellen Anzug die Krawatte alles sehr edel. Dazu würde mir die Königin in einem edlen creme besser gefallen, so würde es den König besser hervorheben, sie könnte ansonsten mit viel Schmuck glänzen. -Dorothe-

    I like the pattern and colors, dress/coat but these colors (or perhaps it’s the lighting) have just washed out the Queen’s usual complexion. Very unflattering color for her on my screen. At first she looked unwell but the other posts are right around the same time and she looks fine. Amazing how wearing “your colors” can enhance or detract from your look.

      Totally agree--the lighting is the culprit I think. Mathilde usually looks wonderful in blues and pinks. Weird.

      Yes the lighting. Reminds me of the silly Seinfeld episode about Jerry’s girlfriend who looked one way in good lightning totally awful in bad lighting. He couldn’t avoid the bad lighting :).

    I know I should like this--the colors are beautiful. But, something is off. Queen Mathilde looks tired or washed out but these are colors that usually look wonderful on her. Maybe there is too much in terms of design.

      She doesn't look tired she is tired. And so is the king. Lucky their holydays are starting on the 22nd.

  10. The Queen looks lovely, but I am not sure about the color of the dress. A less vivid color might have worked better.

    Mathilde can do much better. Not my favourite outfit for sure. Too much going on.
