On April 19, 2023, Queen Maxima atended the start of the Flower Parade (Bloemencorso Bollenstreek) in Sassenheim. The Bloemencorso of the Bollenstreek is the largest spring festival in The Netherlands. In 2023, the official parade is on Saturday 22 April but prior to the parade, there are many parade-related events in the Bollenstreek (Dutch flower region).
Bloemencorso is a parade with floats that are completely decorated with bulb flowers such as tulips, hyacinths and daffodils. The main highlight of the event is the parade when the colourful floats and the vehicles decorated in masses of flowers travel the 42 km route.

Love the colour combination, the silhouette, and especially the cape and the boots. Very nice!

Nice outfit again. As you say, it's a great colour combo. Especially like the skirt and the hair still looks much better than normal.
DeleteAgree
DeleteNice outfit, too bad, even the new hair extensions are left a mess. A hair brush attached to her wrist, would be a great gift to her.
ReplyDeleteI am verry happy that I am not the only one who noticed this. Her hair looks nice but if you look closely it is a mess. Yesterday she was in Italy and her hair looked well cared for but I think she did not brush it for today since yesterday and after she woke up today.
Delete@Iris, I came to the conclusion, that Maxima likes her hair 'undone'. It is the 'out-of-bed' look she goes for. We are probably clueless and don't understand the statement. Or we are obsessed with hairbrushes. And she has overcome that obsession and freed herself from old-fashiones morning routines like getting ready in the morning before going out for work.
DeleteSure, she likes it undone, but we don't. :-) :-) She often has heavily make-up so she has that routine thus she can do her hair also.
DeleteCharming and pretty, I like her hair. Please more of this.
ReplyDeleteThese extensions are not solving the hair problem, back view looks a mess!
ReplyDeleteDo you cleaver girls know The Netherlands is an extremely windy country??? Ring a bell now🤔🤔🤔
DeleteThe slit is far too long, not very regal, I must say.

Love the black ensemble with the touch of camel in the skirt!! The black cape is so chic!! Looking good Madame!!
ReplyDeleteMaxima looks gorgeous : joyful, engaging. - AnnaLise
ReplyDeleteNoir et camel, deux couleurs qui flattent beaucoup Maxima mais la texture de sa jupe me paraît bizarre ; celle du modèle semble avoir de la tenue ?!
ReplyDeleteShe looks good in this outfit, and her hair looks nice too. Good choice Maxima.
ReplyDeleteFlowers in black...... she looks horrible with all her blond extensions and to tight clothing.....
ReplyDeleteShe is the epitome of beauty, charm and good taste. I love the new shoulder-length haircut. She left it long in the back so she can put it up. Although not born into royalty,
ReplyDeleteshe is truly Regal!

Yes nice look today for Maxima. css
ReplyDeleteMaxima looks fabulous! She wears turtlenecks well, and this is such a classy outfit that screams I’m royalty. Her hair is looking especially healthy.
ReplyDeleteShe looks great but it screams higher middle class.
DeleteIt screams higher middle class ( with aspirations): I agree.
DeleteHair is looking healthy ?? Half of it is fake !!
DeleteThis color combination works well. She looks fabulous.
ReplyDeleteThis is more like it! Chic but not hysterically so. Really good look.
ReplyDeleteMaxima looks great today! Love the black turtleneck and cape with the camel skirt. Very chic look.

There sure is an obsession over hair extensions. What a waste of energy. You can see by the pictures that the wind is blowing her hair. I think I would rather have my queen focus on her work rather than running from the car to a private room to have hair and makeup touched up by her team before greeting her hosts. This must explain the helmet hair the older royal ladies have. They could emerge from a hurricane without a hair out of place.
ReplyDeleteHear! Hear! Well said @Anon 01.29

All the negative comments about the hairstyle, even if there are curls in her hair and it looks good for several days now, is just an opportunity to say something about someone you don't like. In the future better say nothing if you really dislike her.
ReplyDeleteRubbish, just because someone states something negative about our royal and aristocratic protagonists on this blog does not imply that we dislike or hate them, as has been suggested. What is the point of commenting if nothing negative is allowed? Tastes and opinions differ, glorification is boring and unrealistic, so why should people not express their views as long as they are fair?

I had to laugh at the comment about attaching a hairbrush to her wrist! Hilarious and great idea! Lol
ReplyDeleteBravo Queen Maxima. Everything looks so good. Black looks so good on her.
