5 January 2010

At 9:50 queen Margrethe held her annual new year's court at Christiansborg Slot for the members for the corps diplomatique and the members of the Royal Life Guard.

She was asisted by prince Henrik, crown prince Frederik and crown princess Mary.

Hofmarskal Ove Ullerup.

Communications Chef Lene Balleby.

The ceremony started with a speech by the most senior ambassador, to which the queen responded with a few words of her own.

Once the court was over, in the afternoon, Mary changed into her fur coat and went out for a spot of shopping in the streets of Copenhagen.

After getting a coffee to go at Joe & The Juice (owned by their friend Johan Wedell-Wedellsborg), Mary left Frederik to take a look inside the high end interior shop Rue Verte on the Grønnegade.

She came across Morten Fabricius, night club owner and friend of Fred & Mary's.

Later that day Mary was spotted shopping at Birger Christensen on Strøget in the company of her stylists, Anja Alajdi and Søren Heedegaard.
