The Dutch royal family hosted a state banquet for the President of Singapore and her husband on the first day of their state visit to the Netherlands.

Máx accessorized her berry palette with rubies and diamonds. We saw her chose the Ruby Peacock Tiara for a black tie banquet in Canada and it works in the same context here, at an evening where the ladies left the sashes at home. The rubies and diamonds echo the red and white in the flag of Singapore - although rubies are a popular choice for Máxima anyway, no reason needed. I like the Peacock on her a lot; it is, I would say, among the most festive jewels in the Dutch collection. And Máx, you know, is a festive gal.
More tiaras were on hand! Princess Beatrix chose her favorite, Queen Emma's Diamond Tiara. Throw on a diamond rivière, a sprinkling of diamond stars, a purple dress (and some purple eye shadow, bless her), and you're good to go.
Princess Margriet pulled another tiara from the smaller end of the family vault for the evening's festivities: the Dutch Emerald Parure Tiara. This one really suits her - kind of a pointless thing to say because I can't recall a tiara that doesn't suit Margriet - but her hair backs up the taller top point of this one nicely anyway.
And that's that! Enjoy your Thanksgiving, if you're celebrating. We'll see you back here on Tuesday.
