On Tuesday 8 November, Dutch Queen Maxima attended the National Coalition's "Financial Health Action Meeting" at the head office of VDL Groep in Eindhoven. Organizers of the meeting were SchuldenlabNL, VDL and a number of other companies.
During the meeting, employers discussed with each other what they can do in the short and long term to improve the financial health of their employees.
On Tuesday afternoon, November 8, Dutch Queen Máxima launched the online job platform RefugeeWork at IKEA in Utrecht. The initiators behind the platform are VluchtelingenWerk Nederland, the Start Foundation and SparkOptimus. The national platform RefugeeWork brings together employers and job seekers with a refugee background.

For a relatively simple outfit, there's a lot going :D
ReplyDeleteFirst, I think the red suits Maxima and the dress is a good base for an outfit. However, something's still off. It's a lot of red and for once I wish she'd worn a necklace, a brooch, a bracelet... something more prominent to break up the colour a bit. The earrings are a good start, but they can't compete with the sea of red. In contrast, the belt is too big and looks too harsh. Not sure if it's the material or the different lighting, but if it has to be this massive thing, the model's version is better and more harmonious. And lastly, I much prefer this without the hat - it's a good casual outfit for this engagement, but the hat looks weirdly out of place and a bit silly inside. It's a "meh" from me.

I love the last pictures when you see her face with beautiful makeup up and earrings which bring together perfectly the colors of the dress and hat. However I appreciate a bit less the overall look with the overwhelming belt.
ReplyDeleteToo much red, then wears no hat outside, and puts it on inside. Rather than pull her hair back in a simple manner to look professional she let if fly around in the wind and then a huge hat inside to cover the mess, nope, not a good look. Ariel
ReplyDeleteI truly like this dress, the color and fit work perfectly for her, also very appropriate for a day event. I also like the boots, hat and belt color combination, much better than the usual black. I do not like the size of the belt, as usual it distracts from the dress. Lovely earrings and very flattering lip color.

Does anyone know the protocol as when to remove the hat?
ReplyDeleteI had understood that's once you put a hat on you don't take it off until you are back home. However i do recall one time when Queen Elizabeth removed her hat, funny enough with Maxima, during a museum visit, and now, Maxima is also taking hers off

She was not taking her hat off, she was putting it on. The first event was a meeting, the second event, in the afternoon, an official launch. For a launch or opening during daytime, a hat is required.
DeleteLou.
Nice look for maxima today. One of NATANS nicer creations. She looks good wearing hats. josebabe
ReplyDeleteFirst Kate, now Maxima with the red/burgundy colour combination. I am not sure I like it. In my view navy would have worked much better.
ReplyDeleteThis coat dress works well for Maxima. Even if I would not pair it with the burgundy, the proportions are right for a tall person like her.

Beautifull dress with wrong accessories, Mabel
ReplyDeleteIt is nice to see Maxima, she looks well in red dress and combination of colors goes well. Beautiful earrings.
ReplyDeleteThe dress and the boots look great on Maxima. However, one day it's a lot of fake hair and the next day it's disheveled hair with a hat. The latter is so wrong in many ways.
ReplyDeleteI like the oufit minus the hat, the hat is hilarious and it makes her look like she is perfoming a play.
ReplyDeleteLovely overall look, the earrings are very interesting. The coat dress, fits well, its very pretty.
ReplyDeleteThe huge hat and huge belt are a no for me; too distracting and too heavy a look. MR
ReplyDeleteThe dress is beautiful, but I am not so keen on the belt. Love the hat and boots, the earrings are really interesting.
ReplyDeleteWhy not the same belt as the model, or without. It makes this nice dress more refined. Boots too floppy. Bag gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI think the belt of the model would be too big.
DeleteSuperbe modèle de robe-manteau dont la couleur lui sied à merveille mais j'aurais enlevé cette ceinture à grosse boucle ; je pense qu'elle est de trop par rapport aux poches qui suffisent amplement. J'aime beaucoup son chapeau, son sac à mains, ses bottes de couleur Bordeaux ; je n'oublie pas ses superbes boucles d'oreilles à plusieurs couleurs et merci pour avoir anticipé afin de les montrer de plus près !
ReplyDeleteO.K., if the belt and the hat weren’t there I’d give it a thumbs up.
ReplyDeleteBut again, Maxima (my favourite fun Queen) gets good marks for knowing how to stand out in a crowd.
I think that a coat is missing.
ReplyDeleteI do not know if the piece Maxima is wearing Is a dress- coat or a simple dress.
I like the hat but it looks a bit out of context given the overall outfit.
Fabulous earrings and fabulous Maxima regardless of her sartorial choices.
Max surely knows how to enhance her beautiful eyes with subtle makeup.
