Shortly before Beatrice's accident these lovely pics were taken during the couple's winter vacation in St. Moritz:

 Thank you for the pictures. I hadn't seen them before. Do you happen to know when they were taken? Mid-february, perhaps?

I do not know the exact date the pics were taken, as I've only seen these Hola photos, but as to the publication date of the magazine mid-February is correct

For the first time seeing how some posters here find her contradictory. She comes off very pretentious.
“I'm a reporter, and I have the salary of a reporter. I'm not going to put half of my salary into a pair of shoes.”
Are you kidding me? How do you explain your closet full of designer wear?

Her designer duds are borrowed then, even so that's a silly comment.

It is indeed a silly comment. I understand that designer things can be loaned, but that sort of access is only possible to people with her connections in the first place. She makes it sound like she`s being practical about her finances by not spending on shoes when the truth is, because of who she is, she`s in the enviable position of not needing to spend on designer stuff because those designers loan them out to her.

By mentioning Zara's shoes and this kind of outfit, I think she would like to advertise those brands. It could be a very good income for her. Many celebrities wear clothes and they are paid for this

Reperter salary ?  Oh please, as we believe her. Most likely she gets income from all her family properties and funds.

Have we EVER seen her wearing Zara? She wore a 40k Valentino dress for the baptism of the princely twins alone even before she became a "princess".

That comment she made will haunt her forever. Major faux par.

Disagree. She might say the truth. Girls of this social levels receive tons of designer clothes just to wear it for promotion.
And do not forget that she is Italian. Italian chic has the ability, the only in the world to mix expensive things with low budget and to make the whole appearance look like haute couture.
Only Italians can do that.

Donna Beatrice may indeed have said the truth. Her family is extremely well-connected with the whole Italian couture industry as her mother is a Countess Marzotto.
The Marzottos own an Italian textile empire, known for the excellency of the fabrics and weaves it has been producing and using for centuries. The family also owns world class couture houses themselves, like Hugo Boss and Valentino (this was transferred to an fund in Qatar in 2013).
They also own industries all over Italy specialized in high-quality textile production, wool manufacturing, silk, linen and other weaves. The name Marzotto may be unknown to general public, but their name is a guarantee, a symbol of the highest-quality of weaves and materials, known and used by fashion houses, designers, furniture makers, restorators, etc. all over the world.
It is not at all unlikely that Salvatore Ferragamo, Ermenegildo Zegna, Gianfranco Ferré, Emilio Pucci, Bottega Veneta, etc. send no bill, or a VERY reduced bill, to their most important supplier of the best textiles in the world, made in Italy.

Her mother's family, the Counts Marzotto owned Valentino. In 2013 the majority of stocks went from private ownership into an investment fund formally established in Qatar but the Marzottos remain shareholders. Maison Hugo Boss, which was in the same group as Maison Valentino, was left out of this transfer and remained in Marzotto hands. We may assume Donna Beatrice will have recieved her Valentino couture for a very friendly price...
