Queen Margrethe and Prince Henrik of Denmark opened the Maritime Museum in Helsingør yesterday. Margrethe repeated one of our favourites- her turquoise blue porkpie hat with curved brim. I love that she cheekily chose a blue hat and suit to open a maritime museum! You’ve got to love a royal hat wearer with both a sense of occasion and a sense of humour.

Royal Hats 
Very pretty colour-and a lovely smile!
It’s such a nice hat you should not call it a pork pie. That’s disreceptful.
A pork pie is a particular style of hat. I will do a post on it here soon for our hat types glossary.
I’ve never heard of a pork pie hat! Can’t wait to learn more about this.
Every time I see this hat I like it more. It’s bright, stylish and grabs your attention in a good way (not like some other hats do).
Queen Margrethe’s hat really suits her. I think she looks really nice in blue (and red as well). Well done.
