Week in Review: Princess Mathilde, 4-10 March

1. a and b) Commemorating the 500th anniversary of the birth of Gerard De Kremer (Gerardus Mercator), 4 March. Fact: in the chilly months you are likely to catch yours doing her gallivanting in a houndstooth coat. I love it. Mine, however, is not a former member of a maternity wardrobe.
2. Visiting a women's home, 6 March.
3. Celebrating the 25th anniversary of Payoke, 8 March. ANNOUNCEMENT: this is one of my all-time favorite Mathilde outfits. That is all.
