Princess Mary puts on a spectacular show of style

Crown Princess Mary and Princess Marie put on a spectacular show of style as they, alongside the Danish royals, arrived in Copenhagen to attend the opening of parliament.

Princess Mary chose to wear a pink and navy printed skirt in a fit-and-flare style paired with a double-breasted jacket for the event held at Christiansborg Palace.

She then chose to top off her look with a black pillbox hat, a matching clutch and heeled pumps.

Princess Marie also looked glamorous as she opted for a cream and navy coat over a blue floral dress.

To finish off the chic number, Marie paired the outfit with blue gloves and a matching hat.

Both Mary and Marie stood alongside their husbands Crown Prince Frederik and Prince Joachim for the opening of Folketinget, the Danish national parliament.

Also accompanying the couples were Queen Margrethe and her younger sister Princess Benedikte, who were each gifted with a bouquet of flowers on their arrival.

Margrethe, 78, wore a royal blue midi dress which she styled with grey accessories. Her sister Benedikte, 74, chose a more vibrant colour palette as she opted for an orange shift dress with a brown cape coat and hat.

It has become a yearly tradition for the Danish royals to watch the opening of parliament and this year was no different as the family watched the Danish Prime Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen give his opening address from the royal box inside parliament.

Mr Rasmussen used his speech to go through what the government hopes to achieve in the next year.
