  2. Entre la robe violette et celle imprimée sur fond jaune, je ne sais pas laquelle choisir ; elle est ravissante dans toutes les deux - Ses boucles d'oreilles déjà vues sont tout à fait à mon goût ; je trouve même qu'elles peuvent se porter avec n’importe quelle autre toilette !

    1. The 8th and the 9th photo are superb.
      I think she's switched on the "I'm gonna look good now" button to celebrate her 50th birthday.

  4. Beautiful, plain dress in a colour which is really lovely on Queen Maxima. perhaps, She is going with the less is more vibe at last. The Natan dress is also a nice spring like outfit. Hair is looking good on both occasions.

    1. @Josh, why do you think the VB dress is cheap? Is this just your opinion or is this based on facts? Because I could tell a number of arguments why this is a good dress for Maxima and far away from lookin 'cheap', like material, cut, interesting sleeves, the draping , the details, the colour, the twin seams, the length, the flowing silhouette. It is one of the better dresses Maxima wore lately. It would look even better around the midway, if Maxima would finally wear better undergarment.
      So, let us know, why this is a 'cheap' dress.

    2. Maybe poster josh says the VB Dress looks "cheap" because of the way it clings around the waist and hip area? That was my first impression with the dress, the clingy fabric. Love the colour, even though it is almost a bit too much purple for may taste.
      Beth - with too much heavy under garments a dress becomes too hot and uncomfortable - maybe a different style would be more flattering?

      Maybe Josh meant the Natan was cheap? I find most of the Natan frocks subpar. The Victoria Beckham is one of the better dresses she owns. Her lack of proper foundation garments and wearing clothes that are not her size are not making her clothes look cheap. If something is ill-fitting, that is on Maxima. She needs to wear clothes that fit her biggest measurement and tailor the rest to fit her. She has a tendency to wear her clothes long after they have become too tight. ~d

    4. No @Josh is clearly talking about the VB = Vicctoria Beckham dress. I said it above and I say it again: this dress with its raglan sleeves, the puffed upper arms and the draping of the top part ist a very good design for a feminine silhouette. It costs more than 1.000 Euros and is anything else but 'cheap'. But I agree with 'd' it would have looked better one size larger and adjusted. Proper fitting undergarment is key. In picture No one you can clearly see that the bra Maxima is wearing is too small and does not give enough support. The panties are too short and cut in in the waist. A seamless high cut shapewear slip or a body or a shift dress would have been better. And no, modern shapewear ist not heavy and hot.

    The Beckham dress: Wonderful! I love everything about it - the style (the sleeves provide just the right amount of interest), the lovely rich colour, the length and the way it falls on Maxima. She wears it well.
    Maxima's hair is perfect for this dress and I like the minimal jewellery, though a small brooch wouldn't have gone amiss. The clutch and shoes are fine though her best accessory is as always, her warm smile.

    The Natan dress: Need more photos before commenting.

    The purple dress is great- chic and classic. Beautiful earrings. I don't know if it was planned but I love that her dress and the purple leather man jackets are the same shade. I like the print of the Nathan dress but don't like the placement of the broaches??

    The purple dress that's how I like to see Máxima forever. Not too much fuss. Nice colour. A simple brooch could have made the dress excellent.
    Love Natan's dress. Mostly in this blog lots of complaints about Natan but it's about the choices you make in his collection cause he has beautiful ensembles. Just look at the wondetful choices Queen Mathilde makes in his collection.

    I like everything about this dress, purple is not my favorite color, but it sure does wonders for Máxima, the sleeves are very interesting and the length and silhouette are very flattering. Good choices of shoes and clutch and the earrings are fantastic.

  13. Thumbs up for both looks. The purple is glorious on her, and I love the earrings. I think the Duchess of Cornwall has some like them. Her hair looks pretty and her make up is perfect. I love how all the children are wearing the same jacket in different colors.

    1. If Maxima has been wearing a wig in this climate of ours it would have blown off her heat long ago. Do you not mean that she has perhaps added a few hair pieces to thicken it up a bit?

    Purple looks really good with her blond hair. Her hair look also better than usual.

  22. Te veel toeters en bellen. Eenvoud siert de mens. Als je geen mooi haar hebt knip er dan een stuk vanaf.

    1. This is one of the few times that she has almost NO "toeters en bellen" which I translate as extraneous fripperies and her hair here is much beter than normal. What on earth do you mean?

    I love the yellow dress. The colour is among my favourites and it also suits Máxima's naturally warm colouring well. But I'm not so sure about the purple/violet one. It's a colour that makes me almost physically sick, but that's not the reason for my doubts. I think it would look better on a person with cooler colouring. The purple dress looks best in the photo with the school-children with purplish coats. Still, Máxima always has a natural charm and radiance no matter what she wears!
