Ascot Appreciation–Princess Beatrice

This year is the Ascot that isn’t – insert sad trombone here. Since we don’t have an Ascot to watch this year, this week we will console ourselves with Ascot appearances of the past. Lucky you, you get to hear from all the hofdames on this subject, each one tackling a favorite. First up, our own opinionated OC!

Princess Beatrice of York has made headlines of all sorts with her fashion escapades. Today, we’ll take a look at some of this Hofdame’s favorite Ascot fashions.

2018 produced this lovely blue confection, which I see as one of her most traditional princessy looks of all time. Love the hat. (I see you Mrs. Brooksbank…I do NOT see you Mrs. Wessex.)

A 2015 entry of a simple dress with some colorful fun accessories. Her clutch says “Bea” on it.

This 2010 entry is not sartorially interesting, but a fun hat on a young royal (she’s 22 here) is always nice. It suits her coloring beautifully.

Another 2010 entry for Ladies Day, which also compliments her coloring.

Those of you with lace fatigue, please look away from this lovely 2014 entry. Note the floral funky shoes…they shouldn’t work, but they do.

Naturally, I have a soft spot for this outfit, also from 2014.

We’ll finish off here with another stellar hat from 2017.
