Today on Hola on line there is this nice pic of Beatrice, taken on her first day at Goldsmith's College, on September 25 2008.

That was taken by Tim Graham. The Royals seem to be quite relaxed around him. And, yes, it's a really nice picture of Beatrice!

Beatrice and Dave at "The Bloodlust Ball" Trinity Church, Marylebone,
London, England 25th October 2008 - the event explains their strange
make-up

Interesting--Beatrice actually looks good in semi-goth get-up. I wouldn't recommend it for class, though. And Dave has a different expression on his face, too.

Thanks for the pics and links, Ice & Incas. I actually think Pss B look pretty good! Maybe the Vampire look is Her look.

This is a lovely photo. It is too bad that we don't see more like this on a regular basis. I do understand that there is nothing sordid or dramatic about this, so it won't be worth as much money; however, I think this photo is a refreshing change.

For once Princess Beatrice really looks nice, very natural. A lovely photo.

There is an official website: BloodLust Ball

I totally agree with you Elspeth. The young royals need to step up and start doing some royal engagements. Definitely William and Harry have gotten a little better. But Beatrice and Eugenie need to do something as well. And yes, I do realize that they do a few events with their mother, but perhaps they need to attend opening or do a walkout about with the Queen, Prince Phillip or even their father. Once a quarter...once a month should do it should do it until they finish university.

I don´t like Halloween either but there are lots of people who do. I had to laugh at this comment

[quote from the Daily Mail comments] I know I'll get bashed for this but why does Beatrice always look like a startled squirrel? I've never seen a picture of her with her mouth shut.

Poor Beatrice, a startled Goth squirrel. Actually she doesn´t look that bad, well when you see the photos of the other guests she looks very good indeed.....

I thought she and the boyfriend looked rather tame but the company they keep (couple of questionable girls there with their bits and pieces poking out) will come back to haunt them.


(Oh, I just realized that was rather a bad pun. . . . )

Compared to the other outfits, Beatrice was dressed in a very subdued manner! As for those bits and pieces, the pictures will come back to haunt them... Whoooooo

There is nothing evil associated with Halloween, apart from perhaps the film industry and those that buy into it. I detest Trick or Treating, an import for some in the UK. The true meaning of Halloween seems to have been lost for many!

The origins of Hallowe'en date back over 2000 years to the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain (pronounced sow-in).This festival, which means the end of summer, celebrated the end of harvest and the beginning of the Celtic new year on November 1st

That is the best picture I have seen of her for years, or thinking back a bit perhaps since she was born. If she sticks to classic young girls outfits like this and leaves the other very doubtful looks she has had behind she will be quite pretty. She has lovely skin and colouring and should stay away from any fashion that is "wierd and wonderful" and the "rage". Classic for her but not old classic, young girl classic.
Also try to control that "squirrel" look.

[muriel]

Well said, and I fully agree. Thats said, it is very rare for any of the mother and daughter team to be dressed in anything classic!

[Bella]

Thanks, giov. I think Pss B looks great, actually. But then I'm partial to black and the pale look. I LOVE Halloween!!! My fave holiday of the year. I suppose it doesn't help that my b. day is the day before so I've always had Halloween-themed parties. It's fun and frivilous. Death is a part of life, why not have fun w it? I agree the whole Celtic meaning behind Halloween has become lost, tho there's a renewed interest in the "history" of it. As for B & The bf, they are def. dressed more tame than some of the other guests.

Yikes! Mine is too and you're right, they did some not very nice things - to both ppl and poor animals. Thank goodness we've come a long way from that! Well, most of us.

Here's an article about Beatrice's attendence at yesterday's
evening event, as it's more about Bea herself than the
Children in Crisis event, I post it here

Careful you don't trip: Princess Beatrice steps out in an extra long dress for a night out with mum Fergie
