Queen Margrethe and Prince Henrik of Denmark began the first leg of their annual summer cruise aboard the royal yacht “Dannebrog” on June 18. For this busy day of visits to a care facility, music school, City Hall, a cultural centre and a wind farm, Queen Margrethe repeated her pale blue brimless pork pie hat. While this felt hat feels much more like a winter hat to me than a summer one, I suppose it is breezy on the water in Northern Europe so won’t quibble about it. The detail on this hat is so pretty, it remains one of my favourites in Queen Margrethe’s hat closet.

Prince Henrik was also in a nautical mood with his naval uniform and cap for the yacht’s arrival in harbour. They cast a dashing pair, don’t they?!
