I noticed the colours too, particularly the green, but I think Queen Margrethe chose her colour very carefully. As best I can tell from these pics, the green enhances the colour of the emeralds.
For the Crown Princess, I have never been satisfied with the colour of those rubies and her dark crimson works well.
