After receiving about several hundred personalities from the Dutch society the previous day, King Willem-Alexander and Queen Maxima welcomed members of the diplomatic corps and international organizations.

For this reception, which was also attended by former queen Princess Beatrix, Maxima chose to illuminate the Dutch winter with a fuchsia top fits perfectly with her pumps. Natan was the designer she wore from head to town(pun intended) with Scottish tartan wool skirt, mixing that pink tone with beige, gray and yellow, on which she had pinned one of her dragonfly pins. Her hair rolled in bun and adorned with diamond and ruby daisy-shaped earrings, Maxima appeared smiling in front of the photographers at the doors of the Palace, a beige coat thrown over his shoulders. At her side, her husband King Willem-Alexander was in his black jacket and striped gray pants.

After the completion of the New Year's ceremonies, Queen Maxima is to fly to Switzerland.

The Butch Royal Courts: Remembrance Day

Dutch King

She once again proved in recent days while she was in Amsterdam with her husband King Willem-Alexander.

Wednesday May 4th, the royal couple took part in the ceremony every year on that date, paid tribute to the National erected on Dam Square in Amsterdam to all Dutch civil and military monument who died in wars or since World War II, when in peacekeeping missions. In a black coat, a same colored turban wrapping her blond hair, the young woman of 44 years showed a raised face, imbued with great sadness.

Certainly nothing to do with the Maxima that appeared the next day for the traditional concert of the Liberation, in which the musicians performed on the river Amstel, still in Amsterdam. The mother of the little princesses Catharina Amalia, Alexia and Ariane literally glowed. In a nude dress covered with a veil embroidered with gold sequins motifs of the Belgian house Natan -The one she wore in Paris on March 10 for the state dinner offered to the Dutch royal couple by President Hollande at the Palace Elysium - prancing her curls over her shoulders, the Queen of the Netherlands has left his joy and his laughter.

As is customary for this concert held every year on May 5th, the anniversary of the Liberation of the Netherlands marking the end of World War II for the Netherlands, Willem-Alexander and Maxima arrived and departed by boat. But unlike last year, they were not accompanied by their mother and mother in law, Princess Beatrix.
