    Queen Sonja never disappoints, always elegant and tasteful, I adore her. The Crown Princess: Her coat is, may I say: somewhat clownesque - what an absurd choice. But dark blue is a good colour for her.

      Clown princess looks beautiful in black, not so much in the maxi dress.

    2. Norwegian patterns are traditional, don't look clownish. What an insulting word to use.

      I don’t find Mette Marit’s colourful jacket clownesque at all. Rather, colourful and beautiful. Love that she’s paired it with camel coloured flats.

      What if someone should call you a clown?
      Then, please wear your glasses as this fabulous gown (no maxi dress) is not black but in a beautiful midnight blue shade slightly veering toward navy.

    I like the dark blue (black?) outfit on MM but am not too sure of the coloured coat/dress. Would like a better photo of it. In any case, really happy to see MM and the whole family, especially K. Harald, out and about and enjoying a nice time.

    Great to see the four senior royals out together. Not sure if they planned it, but their outfits coordinate in a lovely, quiet way. I do wish the coat on MM wasn’t full length. It’s an interesting pattern and could look less matronly in a jacket or knee length. The navy outfit underneath is beautiful.

    I like the queens coral jacket a slacks, they both flare at the bottom. MM, her multiple coloured coat, a no for me, however the colours suit her so well. The king and CP both have well fitting suits.

    Oh dear those comfy shoes on the queen, just not a fan, it takes away from the pretty dress. But if she like the comfort than so be it.

    Imagine having the space at your (second or third) home to invite 4000 people over. They appear approachable and I love that, but it’s a reminder just how differently they live from most! Love MM’s muted coloured jacket and the camel ballerinas.

  7. La reine porte à merveille cette tunique de couleur corail, retrouvée mélangée dans les motifs du léger manteau de Mette-Marit que je trouve un peu trop long @
