Day 3. Olympics in Rio de Janeiro

Wednesday, August 3rd

The Crown Prince couple are present at different event at the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The royal couple is accompanied by Prince Joachim and Princess Marie, who brought all four children. Crown Prince Frederik attends because he is member of IOC - the International Olympics Committee.

Crown Princess Mary at the presentation of LEGO boxes

Only two days away from the official opening ceremony of the Olympics and the Crown Princess joined the presentation of 5,000 LEGO boxes, which were given to 300 different Brazilian schools that are a part of EDI - Institute for Child Development in the Jacarepague shantytown. Of course she didn't hand over all five thousand boxes herself, but some lucky children got the chance to meet the Crown Princess and get a LEGO box.

The Crown Princess was warmly welcome at the arrival and given a beautiful bouquet of flowers. I think it is sincere joy looking at the pictures, when she hand over the toy boxes to some of the youngest pupils. The smile on their faces is precious. She also listened to speeches and watched a concert with the Danish Radio Girls Choir, who is in Brazil along with a delegation of several Danish companies etc., to promote Denmark and Danish values. To me the best part of her visit was when she took time talking and playing with the children, who really enjoyed her company. She was one big smile.



One of her old goodies. A white dream she purchased in Australia couple of years ago when she was ''home'' on an official visit along with her husband. Since then we have seen her in the WILLOW dress a couple of times, here, here. At first I was sure she was wearing one of her white Hugo Boss dresses but now there is no doubt in my mind, when I tell you it's from WILLOW. Especially because of the characteristic white leather belt wrapping her around her waist. Thrilled to see it again, but what makes me even more excited, is the fact that we get to see such a fine and sophisticated dress worn with a pair of ballet flats. Which by the why are new and because of Heaven I know they are from Prada. If you manage to find a close up of her flats, notice the sweet detail on the white cap toe -a bow and fine stitches. The most elegant way, she styled her outfit with golden jewellery from Dulong Fine Jewelry, Cartier and a magnificent Orit Elhanati necklace. I can't ask for more: an incredible dress perfectly accessorized with classy accessories. Think the reason why I really like this outfit is because she showed us how to dress both sophisticated and elegant and at the same time casual.

Crown Princess Mary met the Danish swimming team




Between her two planned visits in Jacarepague shantytown, where she presented some of the 5,000 LEGO boxes and a gala dinner on board on the Training Ship Denmark in the evening. Suddenly pictures appeared everywhere of the Crown Princess visiting the Danish swimming team during one of their training session before the Olympics. Everything I read, is that everyone was so excited and grateful to met the Crown Princess in Brazil. Danish swimmer Lotte Friis (the woman you see above, next to the Crown Princess) is just one of many from the Danish swimming team who have shared picture of the Crown Princess. To me she seemed in a really good mood; smiling and laughing all the time. I think is was a great honor for the team members to met her and glad she took time to visit them. The Danish royal family also shared a photo on Instagram after the training session, here. All relaxed, it looks like she really enjoyed meeting the athletes.

Nothing fancy about Mary when she met the Danish swimming team during their training session. Completely relaxed and casual dress in a polo shirt, knee length shorts and a pair of sneakers. That's what I think is so great about Mary. No matter what she is wearing, she makes her very best appearance. We have already seen Prince Joachim and Princess Marie wearing clothes from the Danish label Vero Moda - they designed the clothes the Danish athletes wear during the Olympics, and now Mary has to. A dark polo shirt. I haven't been able to find the exact model of her navy blue short, but I see they are from Nike. I think I see a bracelet and a pair of earrings but I can't tell you anything more than that. She accessorized the outfit with her black By Malene Birger sneakers.

The Crown Prince couple, Prince Joachim and Princess Marie attending gala dinner

Around dinner time the Crown Prince couple, Prince Joachim and Princess Marie were invited to attend gala dinner on board the Training Ship Denmark on occasion of the ships arrival to Brazil. Prince Nikolai and his younger brother Prince Felix also attend the dinner. Along with their father and stepmother, the two boys arrived on board the Training Ship Denmark shortly before the Crown Prince couple was sailed out to the ship, which was docked close to the harbor.

Once again the family was gathered, ready for an outstanding evening in each others company. Imagine what an experience it must have been for both Prince Nikolai and Prince Felix. As patron of the Training Ship Denmark Prince Joachim expressed how proud he was to see the ship in the heart of Brazil at this very moment. So why is a Danish ship in Rio de Janeiro? - of course to promote the Danish maritime industry and the Danish-Brazilian cooperation on education. According to Billed Bladet 40 Danish and 40 Brazilian students are trained to become ship's assistants during the Olympics.

Dinner time. This means we had to wait till around midnight before the dinner was actually taking place because of the time difference. Despite we were forced to wait I wasn't disappointed by what I saw - Mary in a brand new colourful maxi skirt. Etro's exotic and playful design. It was identified by Heaven and Kate. Looks like she is almost flying above ground wearing this skirt. Love the way she matched the colourful maxi skirt with a plain white blouse. Accessorized with her silver lurex cardigan from Ann Taylor making it the perfect evening outfit for a Brazilian dinner on board a ship surround by shiny water, mountains and elegant dressed guests. Like the previous days Mary had chosen several bracelets from among others Orit ElhanatiDulong Fine Jewelry and Cartier such as a pair of new earrings. These are still not yet identified. The maxi skirt is the reason why I think Mary looked a little more casual than Marie in her dreamy white mid-length dress. Two beautiful dressed women on their way to attend dinner accompanied by handsome husbands and stepsons. More pictures gave me a chance to identified her shoes as her beige peep toe wedges from Tod's. Still, I do not know anything about the new clutch. Looks pretty and perfectly matched everything else, but I can't identify it.
