  1. It's nice to see them again!
    I like Maxima's hair style and her outfit in general but her skirt seems extremely creased. I assume it isn't meant to look like that. The mustard colour (not my favourite but apparently one of hers) is interesting with navy blue.
    I wonder what's in the red bag!

    1. My first reaction also was that the skirt is very creased, which happens when you sit, so maybe the photos were taken on their way out, after they had sat. I wonder why HE is holding that red bag?

    2. But how long were they sitting? I've been on 10+ hour flights and looked a bit less rumpled than that!

    3. She is holding a clutch lizzie. Wonder if the red bag is like a laptop kind of case?

    4. @ Heather, sometimes look of creased cloth whether it is skirt or dress or pants is very chic.

    5. @Diane & @Lizzie maybe the red bag is like E-II's big red box of correspondence. (Shhh-I've been binge watching The Crown on Netflix)

  2. Why should HE NOT hold the bag, they are a no nonsense couple and it's 2017! They are entering the palace and they change clothes there for the reception.

    1. I thought they were going to a reception. Were they coming back from somewhere else when the photo was taken? Bit confusing.
      Now I want to see what they wore to the reception!

  4. They gave a New Year reception at the Palace in Amsterdam, so they are entering the palece from a side door. Inside they change clothes. The receptions is for all foreign diplomats in The Netherlands.

    1. @Noon en Len Thanks for the info! I watch the fashion but I like to know the back story as they are performing important roles as servants to their countrymen.

  6. Mustard and trumpet sleaves - two nightmares joined in one blouse.
