Haakon and Mette-Marit Current Events: April 2007 - January 2013

[Lichtenstein]

Hm...I read every time the "cyrrent events" of Royals and can't avoid to feel bored. I know that all will call me reactionary, and maybe I am...but royals seems more employes of the State than royals.

Vanesa.

That's exactely what they are and what they get their money for. Todays european (reigning) royal families are an organ of the state just like parliament, prime minister or supreme court.

You can find this year's Christmas pictures here.

I moved all posts dealing with the annual Christmas Pictures to this thread.

[crm2317]

The Crown Princess has had to pull out of some events and appearances as she has not been well recently. You can read more about it on her current events thread

 

[sofajr]

As it seems she still suffers from the same flue.

 

[rominet09]

As far as I'm concerned, I am a bit worried, it is a long time since we have seen her

 

[norwegianne]

I guess we'll see on the 16th, when she is going to the awarding of Frederikkeprisen with Princess Astrid.

 

[sofajr]

Finally! I believe she'll not cancel the meeting on last minute as before.

 

[sgl]

I hope that she is feeling better. Maybe she has been sick due to another reason (pregnancy)? I am looking forward to seeing new photos of her.

Kjendis.no have an article on how they only had eyes for each other and speculated in whether or not they actually witnessed Thorkildsen's winning javelin throw...

 

[vestfoldlilja]

It's nice too see them so in love. They seem very happy and content.

Please don't go about wearing Matrix-style black leather coats and black dresses and black hose and black shoes. You are not a widow. You have a wonderful husband and three great kids - why not celebrate that by wearing, for once, something that's fresh and colourful?

Thank you.

Smilla

 

[sofajr]

she wore light in recent times, so maybe she did get bored

Yes, but...

I don't know, she used to be so radiant and pretty in those robes she wore early on in her marriage - now she seems to take clothing as one more chore to do. I can imagine that as a mother of three kids you aren't eager on spending time on buying transparent pantyhose, but it's her JOB to look presentable. She gets PAID to do this. Nobody expects her to be a clotheshanger for designer couture, but a bit more effort - neither hippiesque white cardigans nor Matrix-like black leather coats nor strange blue-white affairs that make her look like a matron with wide child-bearing hips - would really be appreciated.

I know this is not a very original rant, but once in a while I have to say it.

 

[sofajr]

the problem is when I become really happy for her wearing light colours she starts wearing black from head to foot
so I think nothing can change her way of choosing the clothes.

Black seems to be her default option. Maybe it's genetic: "Hm, let's see...What do I wear today? [genetic makeup kicks in] Must - wear - black..."
