  4. This outfit looks fabulous, love the skirt. The rich burgundy hat, and blouse looks perfect, blends in well with the small burgundy pattern of the skirt. The shoes an clutch, are a nice color. The hat suits her well. Not sure what sort of earrings she is wearing?

  7. C'est dès la première photo que je vois Maxima avec les cheveux ramenés sous une coiffe dont la couleur Bordeaux se retrouve par touches dans le reste de son look dont sa pochette, ses gants jusque dans ses magnifiques escarpins ; oh, j'oubliais les boucles d'oreilles !

  8. The dress is nice, not my style, but nice. But please, please, put that hat away. Why wear a hat to an indoor event? (unless it's a church, of course.) None of the other guests wears a hat.

      … I think she wears a hat because … she likes to! I notice she wears a hat very frequently since she became Queen and not frequently before (?), so I also think she’s carrying forward a tradition that she enjoys and wants to perpetuate. And… she doesn’t have to meet the formality of the room, she gets to set the formality … she’s the Queen! Long live the hat! Fiona

    Beautiful pairing of the burgundy top and patterned skirt…fits well and the colors work great for autumn. Love the matching burgundy accessories although I wouldn’t mind if the hat missed the event!

    Lovely outfit. Queen Maxima’s looking smart and sophisticated and the hat is excellent for saving any potential hair issues. Well done

    Isn't it strange each time Queen Maxima or Queen Mathilde are wearing an old dress by Natan everybody likes it. When the dress was new nobody liked it. Queen Maxima received a lot of bad comments when she first wore this outfit. I've always said it and I say it again : Natan seems to know what will be trendy in the future or maybe the other brands are not trendy at all and always stick to their old ways when they try to create something new.

  18. But dear Maxima, don't forget we need some OTT from you otherwise our (fashion) life just won't be the same 😁

    Although I am not a fan of checkered skirts, I think that this one is of the most successful pieces combo on Q.Maxima.
    The burgundy shade suits her beautifully.
    Not sure, but her fabulous pumps could be by her favourite Gianvito Rossi brand.

    2. And for your penance write ….
      “I will not make this mistake again” x 1000 times.
      Then you’ll be forgiven for this horrible error.😁

    Stunned to see Maxima's hair neatly tucked away in the bonnet, cap of a hat she is wearing. The outfit is classy and lovely. Wish she would wear this sort of thing more often as it suits her. Edwina

  21. But wait dear bloggers. Maxima is playing her cat and mouse game with us.
    Maybe we’ll get one or two more 10/10’s and then she will hit us with a disaster.
    I can feel it coming already.😁
