Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie's Fashion and Style Part 6: May 2014 - April 2015

I agree about the hair, but I am so pleased with the rest of her outfit that I am prepared to overlook it. I am not a fan of the squashed-bird fascinator at the best of times, but, if an adult woman with long hair must wear one, they should wear their hair up.

The skirt lengths of the three ladies provide a useful lesson. Knees are not attractive things, and are best covered up. Bea's outfit loses nothing by the skirt covering her knees; in fact the length improves her look. We still see her very fine lower legs, and she looks far more elegant than Autumn, whose appearance would be improved if the skirt covered her knees. A hem of Beatrice's dress ends at a point where the leg is narrowing, and that's a much more pleasing point to take the eye than the one two or so inches higher where the leg bulges out again at the side of the knee.

Stunning outfit, she needs to tie her hair back though.

I can handle them paired with an elegant updo, but when they have plonked it on top of masses of hair, not only does it not look good, it just looks plain silly. Kudos to Sophie.



Duc has nailed it perfectly by pointing out that such millinery misadventures belong on the heads of young girls/women.

Considering she's had much worse on her head, this one's not that bad. Not great mind you, but not bad either.

Beatrice really did look lovely today & easily one of very best looks in too long a time.

Yeah, at least it wasn't the beige horror.

Beatrice looked beautiful in her Easter outfit.

I thought Beatrice was very elegant and appropriately dressed for the Easter service.

Princess Eugenie in New York a few days back. The Princess is wearing a topshop skirt.

I quite like the skirt! it gives me a certain positive vibe! I think it completes Eugenie's look...

Eugenie's outfit is fine for a casual outing, but the hat looks a bit odd. It reminds me of the winter hats prep school girls wear here in England. The outfit in general also is a bit mismatched but I like the skirt and top individually.
