Queen Mary chose a light blue and tan ensemble for the first day of the visit. She wore a pale blue wrapped blouse and a midi-skirt with a tan and blue cane pattern. To finish the look, she chosen a robin’s egg blue open coat and co-ordinating wrapped headband.

Their Majesties are not the only royal visitors to Germany this week, though.
King Frederik and Queen Mary will be joined by Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel of Sweden and Crown Prince Haakon Magnus and Crown Princess Mette-Marit of Norway at a celebration and dinner for the 25th anniversary of the Nordic embassy complex in Berlin.
