      Just eye makeup fail, and she often looks hollow eyed.

      That's a good question. I didn't notice at first.

      I thought the same. The surroundings of her left eye look darker at every foto. I hope she is alright.

      Looks like she has been crying and her eye make up is ruined. I don't believe she would go out with a black eye and it's a harsh and nasty gossip to say so.

    Nice dress and color. She must be thrilled to be an aunt again. Maybe one day they will surprise us by having a little boy. Would be nice if they would be left alone from all the bad stuff around them.

    These are paparazzi shots with no news value. I think she should be able to go to a store in peace.

      She is a Princess and as such, she will be photographed as different kinds of other famous people (royals included) too. If she does not give up her title, and she does not seem to want to do it, then she has to tolerate the public interest - exactly as she has always done that. As for fashion, one can go to a store in simple jeans and a sweater and look good. This dress is sure expensive, but that does not make it pretty or at least Beatrice looking good in it. Quite to the contrary. I never understand why commenters here feel the need to "protect" royals in one way or another if their outfit gets negative critic ...

      Agree 21:11. I do not want to see paparazzi shots here.

      And no 14:59 just because she is a princess, gives paparazzi an absolutely no right to long-lens photograph her like this. It’s an appalling intrusion on her life.

    Not impressed with the outfit. And…. A shopping excursion is not the same as attending a worthwhile event for goodwill or a good cause.

      Which worthwhile events? Ascot? Mingling with rich people in Arab countries? Look, she is a princess, lives in St. James' Palace (very near to where she was shopping) - both circumstances are her choices. This comes with elevated visibility and she never had a problem with that. So why should we make this a problem for us.

      Virginia, if we snapped you out shopping you’d probably be furious. If people then dared to comment that they weren’t impressed with what you wore to your private shopping, you’d probably be livid and feel intruded upon.

      Paparazzi posts do not deserve our comment.

    What an angry face. She could have smiled to the paparazzi. Even if she didn't liked to be photographed a little smile is always better. The dress is not beautiful. Too much dark fabric for her slim morphology.

      If she smiles at the paparazzi, people will say she wants attention, if she doesn‘t, they will say she is huffy. Whatever she does, it will be wrong.
      Paparazzi are everywhere in London on the lookout for famous people, it is all about money. Fortnum and Mason is an ideal hunting ground for prying lenses.

      Hi anon 5/8, 15:20 Paparazzi yell at female celebrities to "Smile!" because they know that a smiling photo is worth more! controlling female celebrities' attitudes makes money for these men.
      There is so much pressure to smile put on female celebrities, while the men can scowl as much as they like, without getting adverse remarks. It is a double standard.
      For example, take Felipe, nearly every single photoshoot of him in the last year or so shows a downturned mouth. Even in videos his lips smile, but his eyebrows stay tense and furrowed. Perhaps affairs of state are weighing him down. And Carl-Gustav has a trademark glare which he has been doing for photoshoots for years.
      I think we should be very careful not to adopt the priorities of paparazzi and the celebrity industry as our own. Lyra

    Interesting to see her ‘everyday’ wear. Not keen on the shoes, no support, almost like going bare foot. The dress seems to have a lot of fabric, otherwise it is okay, nice and comfy. I have never been a fan of her fashion choices, but this is okay.

      This type of shoes are fashion this summer. Almost every brand is selling them the most expensive and the less expensive. They are simple ballerina's with a strap over the foot.

    It’s certainly been a testing time for the York sisters. Let’s hope with the birth of a new baby, that gives them a bubble away from all the drama,to revel in the joy of the new addition to their family.

  10. The tiered effect just above the knee line, I dislike, this doesn't look good. It spoils the overall look of this dress, the rest of it is quite nice.

      Ava I agree with you. Without that bottom tier the dress would be very attractive. It does not even suit the model who looks reatively tall. Just too much ruching and gathering all over distracts from the complicated attractive upper half. Pity it is the sort of garment that suits the hourglass shape of both the York sisters.

      حذف
    2. Anon 10.52 Yes, you articulated your description, better than me! If not for the bottom tier, this dress would look quite lovely. Ruching and gather adds bulk, when there is no bulk. Design not 100% great. Thank you for your well thought out description.

      She is a princess out and about, no harm in photos, she is quite used to being followed since for ever, the family drama doesn’t help. As mentioned above she could have smiled even if she is angry at being photographed.

    @Anon 03:53: this photo was made in a widely public place. Not zooming in onto a private yacht, not sneaking up while she is somewhere where she can reasonably think that she is alone. That makes the big difference! This here is not really what paps do - this is simply public space, it could have been anyone seeing her among other people and making a picture. So come on, don't make yourself to a moral instance without any reason for that!

    She'd better smiled. Now everyone has seen her angry face.

    On 23rd July King Philippe and Queen Mathilde were walking in a wood in Han-sur-Lesse (a touristic spot nearby the castle of Ciergnon, Belgium) all by themselves when they encountered a group of girl scouts from the Province of Limbourg (Belgium). The girls called them and the King and Queen started a friendly conversation with them. They girls asked if they could make a photo. The king and queen said it was OK and a groups photo was made. It only appeared yesterday in the Belgian newspapers and on the internet. The girl scouts told everyone what friendly people King Philippe and Queen Mathilde are and so down to earth. Now of course we all know the king and queen did not left the country immediately after the national day on 21st July to go to their vacation house in France. In the meantime they probably did. That is how a normal royal couple react when they risk to be photographed. That is how royals make themselves loved by the ordinary people.
