At the end of the state visit of Finnish President and his wife to Sweden, the presidential couple invited their Swedish hosts to a reception at the embassy of Finland in Stockholm. Later in the evening, the Royal Family and the presidential couple got together again to say goodbye, this time, at the Royal Palace.
King Carl Gustaf, Queen Silvia, Crown Princess Victoria, Prince Daniel, Prince Carl Philip and Princess Sofia said goodbye to the President of Finland Sauli Niinistö and his wife Jenni Haukio after a farewell ceremony at the Royal Palace in Stockholm. The state visit lasted for two days and took place in Stockholm and the surrounding area.
They are all very beautiful. But I excpecialy loved Princess Sofia look today.
ReplyDeleteI think Sofia´s dress is more suited for a garden party (not necessarily British-style) or a cocktail reception rather than a state visit. Same applies to Victoria´s dress, though it´s slightly better.
DeleteI thought the same.

DeletePrincess Sofia's off the shoulder dress looks very pretty on her, also her hairstyle matche romantic style of her dress. Other outfits aren't bad either but somehow Sofia stand out among them all.

Queen Sylvia’s recent costumes were very smart but I found the look slightly overpowering and heavy. This pastel ensemble, however, is delightful and very flattering. I find Sofia’s bare shoulders inapproriate for this formal event,
ReplyDeletealthough the dress itself has interesting details and an elegant length.

As a Finn, I have not been proud of Mrs Haukio's clothing during this visit in Sweden. Her outfits could be more exciting and creative, as they now make her appear much older than she is. This pink skirt is not a good combo with the black jacket and beige shoes. The whole outfit doed not simply go together.

It's really interesting that you should think that, Nina. As a Brit, who has never visited Finland, I have been very impressed with Mrs Haukio's outfits. To me she has appeared both youthful and stylish. I especially the skirts with pleats which looks so comfortable. My one criticism would be that the skirts could often have been just an inch or so longer but overall very impressed. She has been a great advert for Finland in my view.
DeleteToday CP Victoria is the winner for me. So much better than the light blue dress she wore yesterday. Princess Sofia's dress on the contrary is not very good. Queen Sylvia : I love that beautiful jacket. The first lady seems to like shiny fabrics. Today not blue but pink. Is it a skirt or a dress, difficult to see. Her navy jacket is lovely. None of the ladies looks like they have chosen the right shoes or clutches.
ReplyDeleteJ'adore cette couleur bleue mais je l'aime surtout dans la robe à larges volants et encolure bâteau de Sofia !
ReplyDeleteSå ofta kronprinsessan bär HM.
ReplyDeleteThis is not HM, but Jennifer Blom.
ReplyDeleteVisst bär Kp Victoria ofta HM.
DeleteSofia know what looks good on her, she always looks young and vibrant.
ReplyDeleteThe president's wife lost track of the her clothing, she only had a black jacket and a pink skirt to wear. The jackets sleeves were too short and the rest of the outfit just did not fit her style the rest of the trip where she has looked classy and beautiful.
ReplyDeleteSo nice when people in this case two countries get a long so well, it is heart warming to see this. I liked the Gowns and Tiaras, always classic. The Ladies wore what they liked and felt good in their outfits. Hope both Countries will soon be NATO members.
ReplyDeletePrincess Sofia is the winner here for me. I just don't like the pleats in Victoria's dress. It reminds me too much of her dress at the gala dinner. Jeannie
ReplyDeleteMrs Haukio's looks nice, but her ensemble seems to clash. Queen Silvia looks lovely, her jacket is divine. Her clothes always fit her well. CP Victoria looks well groomed.
ReplyDeleteThe Swedish ladies all look wonderful. I love the soft, pale blue shades worn by Victoria and Sofia. Both dresses are beautiful and the ladies look wonderful in them. Queen Silvia's suit is pretty classic style that looks so well on her. The First Lady is a bit of a mixed bag. I just don't see the skirt with the blazer--but the skirt in particular is beautiful. It is also wonderful to see the obvious warmth and friendship between the Swedes and the Finns.
