King Harald received NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg at the Royal Palace in Oslo. Thereafter, King Harald and Queen Sonja hosted an official lunch in honor of Jens Stoltenberg at the Royal Palace. Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess Mette-Marit were also present at the lunch. Jens Stoltenberg has held the position of Secretary General since 2014, and later this year, he will be succeeded by Mark Rutte from the Netherlands.

J'aime beaucoup le choix de Mette-Marit pour cette veste de Dior blanc cassé qu'elle a su combiner avec une jupe de couleur bleue ; peut-être qu'elle porte une robe ?!
ReplyDeleteDer Dior-Blazer aus der New-Look-Reihe sollte eigentlich körperbetont sitzen. Hier ist er viel zu groß, leider. So zaubert er nicht die eigentlich gewünschte Hourglass-Figur, ein bisschen schade bei einen so eleganten Couture-Teil.

100% meine Meinung.
DeleteLa tenue de Mette fait vieillotte.
ReplyDeleteDue à la forme du blazer
Froufrou
The queens dress I am sure many will akin to old curtains, but I like the style and colour. The kings tie is nicely matched. CPrincess , looks nice in a structured jacket. Everyone looks nicely dressed.
ReplyDeleteStoltenberg got out in time. Better not be associated with what Nato will face in the future. He will be replaced by another politician who no longer has support in his home country but served the interest of the globalist bureaucrats and will continue to do so once in office for Nato.
ReplyDeleteVanessa darling why are you talking politics, manners?
DeleteVanessa, this is a fashion-blog. There must be numerous blogs for your particular political views, this is not one of them. Your political agenda is of no interest for the readers of this blog.
DeleteVanessa dear. I enjoy reading your fashion comments.
DeleteForget all this political 'mombo-jumpo' and let's concentrate on givng our learned advice to the royal ladies.
Many of them need our help.
So let's get started and find the first one today who need our advice on a 'pop of colour'. 😁
p.s. General Jens Stoltenberg looks to be a very handsome man.
In fact, all three men in the photo look pretty good and they can drop by my place for a cup of tea whenever they wish 😀
I´m reacting to the context of this reception as stated in the caption.
DeleteI have no agenda, just an opinion.
Just like everyone else, I´m here to share my opinion and to read what other might think.
Well, it is a royal blog, and royals play a crutial part in politics, whether you like that or not. They are of interest for that very reason. If they didn´t have a special rank/position/function in society, no one would care about these people or what they wear.
Even if you care about fashion alone, you should still be interested in the context of each royal engagement as it determines what these people will wear. Protocol will dictate the dress code, diplomatic considerations will play a role, PR reasons will factor in, and a whole team of advisors and stylists will have their say. Context is important. If their choices were only about personal taste, comfort and weather suitability, royals would look like everyone else, and again - no one would care.
The context of each engagement is stated here for a reason.
What does this have to do with fashion? The men all look good in their suits and coordinated ties to the ladies outfits. I like the fit of the queens dress and her choice of necklace.
ReplyDeleteMM looks marvelous here! Classic look that so suits her. Queen Sonja is wearing a lovely print dress that very much flatters her and she looks wonderful. Simple elegance from the Norwegian ladies!
ReplyDeleteJanet
Q S nice! MM dressed in dull clothes!
ReplyDeleteQ Sonja looks very smart. I see Secretary General Stoltenberg is making the rounds. Maybe Denmark and Sweden next. Isn't he the NATO Secretary now? css
ReplyDeleteMM and Queen Sonja look great, both well dressed.
ReplyDeleteI like the tailoring of Queen Sonja's dress. A slightly brighter fabric would be nice but she looks good in the dress as it stands. She generally displays a very nice sense of style.
ReplyDeleteCrown Princess Mette-Marit's outfit is nice and would have been perfect with a tiny bit of tailoring at the waist of the jacket which has a gorgeous line in the sample.
