And today Princess Mary wrapped up in a grey two tier coat and jeans, teaming the outfit with brown boots and wearing her brown hair loose.
Meanwhile Prince Frederik looked casual in a ski jacket and black trousers, as he stood proudly by his children’s side.
Princes Christian and Vincent wore grey school trousers, Sorel snow boots and a blue school jacket, while Princesses Isabella and Josephine opted for the school’s grey skirt and trousers with a beanie hat.
Standing against the picturesque backdrop of the snow-covered mountains, the family certainly kicked off the new year in style.

The photocall comes after Austrialian-born Mary penned a heartfelt letter to Australia’s Prime Minister amid the bushfire crisis, offering her condolences to families who have lost their homes and loved ones.
The future Queen, who was born and raised in Hobart, Tasmania, said that the time of ‘great hardship’ in her home country has left her and husband Prince Frederik feeling deeply sympathetic.
As millions of people around the world follow the news from afar, Princess Mary said she felt ‘proud of my Australian heritage’ to see so many of her countrymen coming together.

The love story between Princess Mary and Prince Frederick has been well documented; the couple met in a Sydney bar and Mary, born in Tasmania, moved to the northern hemisphere to be with Frederik.
In December, in a candid interview with Australian Women’s Weekly, the Crown Princess revealed that moving to the other side of the world was difficult.
She said: ‘I did experience a feeling of loneliness – short-term – when I first moved to Denmark,’ she told the magazine.
‘Moving to Denmark was a huge change in my life – a new culture, new language, new friends, and another way of life.’ ‘So, I see it as quite natural that at times I felt quite alone or a little bit like I was on the outside looking in.’
