  2. Même si elle a un certain âge, Sonja continue à avoir beaucoup de goût au niveau vestimentaire ainsi que dans le choix de ses bijoux dont ce collier de grosses perles que nous lui voyons porter souvent ; j'allais oublier son style de coiffure !!

    Honoured to have Queen Sonja and CP Stephanie as art ambassadords for Scandinavian countries and Luxembourg respectively.
    The Queen is sensational in her bright white mantel coat and blue top underneath (I guess they are a nod to the colours of the flags of Norway ,Sweden and Finland) and Princess Stephanie is so lovely dressed (maybe her blazer is just a bit tight).
    The hair of both ladies are beautifully styled.
    All the people around them look lovely as well.

    Absolutely love that white cape. But more importantly, this Queen knows how to dress with style, always chic and classy. Never old fashioned or dowdy-looking. I love the design of her sunglasses.
    I'm not a fan of big jewelry, but she wears the necklace well.

  12. The Queen looks smart, modern and stylish. She looks fabulous. Love the white coat, combined with the Navy pants, shoes and gloves, divine. The large dark pearl necklace, earrings and bracelet, are the perfect finishing touch. Her hair looks splendid, modern and very becoming. Her dress sense is wonderful, in-style and individual.

  13. Maravillosa y con gran estilo. Me gustan las gafas de sol de la reina Sonja y el detalle inesperado del collar de grandes perlas. La sencillez de la capa blanca hace resaltar los coloridos trajes de los Sami y las piezas de joyería que lucen tanto ellas como ellos. Me encantan los broches con los que se cierran las túnicas de los hombres.

    Some royals could take lessons from Queen Sonja on how to dress !
    Despite her age she is always dressed up-to-date and make her look younger than she is. Her hair and make-up are always impeccable.

    There is something I noticed that the people who are visiting the Venice Biennale
    are dressed with coats and other warm clothes. Is it cold there too ?
