It sounds fun even though I doubt her family will pay for the cost of traveling into outerspace.

Exactly. It is much harder to get a C in Biology (as William got) than to get an A in Drama.

Does anyone know where this was taken?

Wow! That hand on hip pose is very vampy! (In the nicest way.) Little Beatrice has certainly grown up.

What is Pr'ss Beatrice doing with her life?
It was said that her parents were looking for an apartment in USA for her.
But everythingsgone quiet.
I thought that Pr'ss Beatrice was interested in fashion designing.
The gown that she wore on her 18th birthday, it was said that she had something to do with designing it.

she had input on the design but Marchaesa (the fashion label) designed it. Last that I heard she wanted to live in New York on help out in one of her mom's charities.

According to the Daily Mail and Hello!, Bea is planning on launching her own clothing line called "Bobcat". If this is true, it should be very interesting to see how it pans out and whether it is well received or not...

To be open about it: I don't like the York princesses, don't know why but that's it.

Still, I try to be fair - but when I saw the pictures in the article I wonder what is "stylish" about her outfits? Or even well-dressed? Especially in combination with her shoes.

But one thing's for sure - she has inherited her mother's sense of business and learned how to use her Royal name to her advantage. Or does somebody believe she makes all that PR for Branson out of sheer goodwill? With a mother like Sarah Ferguson as an example?
She'll probably be living on her name and dibble in design and cosmetics etc. to make a luxurious living, but a stylish lifestyle will be something else, IMHO.

Thanks for the photos, Iceflower. I don't necessarily like the outfit - looks too much like a nightie - but an Alice in Wonderland theme party sounds fun.

Thanks, Babydoll, for the link. I tend to agree with Jo of P, though (but I like the York girls). Pss B has never struck me as a potential "fashion icon" or even that she has an interest in fashion. This will be interesting.

I agree with most here, I have never really thought with all her money and her access to designer, that Princess Bea dressed very well. To me, it looks like she inherited her mother sense of style. If anyone in the royal family should be a fashion designer, I think, it should be Zara or Eugenie.

I agree with all the comments above. I do however think that Beatrice is 'fashionable" whatever that means, but i dont think she has the sense that she cannot carry off all the clothes she sees on the runway even though she can afford them ! That is a very interesting point Jo of Paletine, i think that she may be trying to use her status to her advantage!!

She looks okay (for her, at least) but who's the guy beside her? Maybe she should help him first before she "honours" a well-paying clientele.

I think Beatrice is beginning to find her own style. Both her and Eugenie are caught between remaining fashionable for teenagers in the Twenty-First century, yet traditional for their position.

Thanks, Iceflower. I agree w Jo of P ~ Beatrice doesn't look too bad in these photos. It's not that I think she has BAD fashion sense, I just don't see her as being one of those runway types. {Dare I say it} but Beatrice's and I have some very similar outfits. Esp. the flat shoes and flowy skirts. So I can't comment on her too badly.

Thanks for the pics iceflower. Beatrice looks really great in these pictures. I really think that colour suits her!
...to answer your question Jo of P, the guy beside her i think is her bodyguard..

I'm with Jo of P- Princess Bea is totally trading in on her status. What is laughable is that she has bad fashion sense and now she wants to design clothes. It just goes to show what money and overindulgent parents will do. Bea doesn't dress well for her shape--those legging/pants things didn't suit her. I think we liked the look because it was more subdued than the others. Time will tell how she will evolve, though. WIth that hair and skin she is already stunning--I"ve got it! Let's telephone "What not to wear" and see if Stacey and Clinton can ambush her!
