Queen Mary of Denmark was a spring style muse on Monday as she and King Frederik arrived in Fredensborg to begin their summer residence at Fredensborg Castle.
The Australian-born Danish royal, 54, was seen rocking a far more casual look than the attire she dons for royal engagements, but offered plenty of style inspiration for the coming season.

Over the top, the royal added the £495 ‘EMY’ leather jacket by Arma, which featured a neat collared neckline and buttons down the front and came in the exact neutral hue of the wave detailing on her trousers.

Adding a touch of luxury to the daytime look, the Queen picked a pair of capped-toe slingback Chanel pumps, which retail for £910. The finishing touches came in the form of the ‘RB4362 Sunglasses in Light Brown’ from Ray Ban, Sophie Bille Brahe’s £3,300 ‘Boucle Ensemble’ earrings, Louise Grønlykke’s ‘Marrakech’ necklace, and a Cartier watch.
A stylist-approved look
Of Mary’s look, fashion stylist Leanne Jones, who trained at the London College of Style, tells us: “Her Chanel pumps are a case in point that casual dressing can feel just as considered and elegant as formalwear.

That said, they can work equally well with mini shorts, a midi skirt, or – as Queen Mary has done – beneath a flowing palazzo trouser. I love the way the trouser embroidery echoes the tone of both her shoes and her jacket, too.”
Queen Mary’s glittering tiara moment

Accessorised to perfection, the mother-of-four added earrings and the brooch from the Danish Antique Diamond Parure, as well as the £2,399 Bottega Veneta ‘Intrecciato Knot Clutch in Pink Silk’.
