King Philippe, Queen Mathilde and Princess Elisabeth were in Tongeren yesterday to take part in Kroningsfeesten, a religious procession takes place every seven years to commemorate the crowning of the miraculous statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary. For this event, the Belgian queen repeated her beautifully draped calot hat in royal blue ruched straw. The calot style works so well for Mathilde’s fine features and this shade of blue is so striking on her, particularly in combination with her orange and blue frock.

Royal Hats 
she wore this outfit when she opened an exhibition with Queen Maxima, it looks great, I also like that her daughter wears the same color.
This is the type of wow dress that a simple elegant hat is perfect for. She wears the style well, very pretty!
Avery elegant look in the hat for her. The cobalt suits her coloring and the dress is a beautiful match for her hat.
I remember this combination from before and it is lovely on Queen Mathilde.
I loved this hat and outfit the first time and I still love it. The colors are perfect together.
So glad to see some saturated colors on Mathilde! The bright cobalt helps make this calot more visible, which is a plus in my book, although I do wish we could see this color in a brimmed hat for her.
Beautiful! Love that hat. Just lovely.
Exquisite outfit from head to toe. Love the hat (happy it is not open), the color is rich and yummy.
Such a visual delight. I really appreciate the full length Twitter photo.
The blue and orange are stunning on her
