No, not only two, these are her donations:  Blazer from Marni, 2500 krone. Isabel Marant dress, 1200 krone. Paul & Joe top, 1200 krone. Day Birger et Mikkelsen top, 900 krone. Miu-Miu(crocodile?) handbag, 4500 krone. Gucci floral pumps, 2200 krone. Prada peeptoe-pumps, 2200 krone Marc Jacobs ballerinas, 1000 krone Edmund Castillo shoes, 1900 krone. From what I understand from Google translate, she's selling for a green charity of which Ingrid is a patron, to "re-use" old clothes.

I think a charity auction of old clothes is a great idea.  Just out of interest, how much did she wear these items? Anyone know?

I think a charity auction of old clothes is a great idea.  Just out of interest, how much did she wear these items? Anyone know?  Diana did the same, before she died. Remember.  And Alex of Denmark did a similar thing as well, seeling of old handbags for charity. Its not an original idea. Whilist its a great cause, I don't think that there is anything noble about this. It could be a part of a way, she is getting rid of clothes and other accosseries that are so last season or no longer fit.

It could be just PR but is an example of recycling clothes for a good cause (an environmental charity) At least she's not selling it to make a profit like her Danish neighbour

Atleast it is MM and not Maxima. I can't imagine anyone would bid on Maxi's shoes after seeing this:

What a surprise, MM is on another foreign holiday, the two events she attended in the last few weeks and the public celebration of Harald and Sonja's birthdays must have been exhausting. She's spending two weeks in Kashmir (India) Srinagar, June 19: Norwegian Crown Princess Mette Marit is in Kashmir on a two-week holiday, sources said Tuesday. Princess Marit, wife of Norway’s Crown Prince Haakon – the first in line to the throne - arrived in Leh town in the frontier Ladakh region on Monday for a 13-day stay.
Though the princess is accompanied by her own security entourage, the state government has also deployed two English-speaking personal security officers with her, sources told the Kashmir Observer.
Besides visiting ancient monasteries, the Princess will also be going for trekking in the cold desert.
The Norwegian princess was in India last September, and was scheduled to visit Ladakh for two weeks but postponed her Ladakh trip at the last moment.
A Norwegian commoner and a single mother with a rebellious past, the princess checked in an economy hotel adjacent to a luxury hotel owned by Tourism Minister Rigzin Jora.

What a fantastic Crown Process.  Yes, her stylist has a second-hand clothes store in Copenhagen and Mary's clothes have been seen on sale there.

Considering the long-standing situation in Kashmir I'm surprised it's deemed prudent for M-M to be spending so much time there. I'm guessing she'll forego 2 weeks of her summer holidays?

She's spending two weeks in Kashmir (India) I like her but even I have to admit that this is quite brazen. And to think that poor Letizia got slagged off for a short getaway in a neighbor country... Yes, her stylist has a second-hand clothes store in Copenhagen and Mary's clothes have been seen on sale there.  Wow, how tacky. [/quote]

The nannies. IIRC, Haakon and MM asked months ago for a raise to pay, among other things, more nannies. (AFAIK Haakon is in Norway with the kids)
