The sweet way Princess Beatrice nods to her nickname with her accessories

Princess Beatrice is one of our most super-stylish royals, and loves wearing trend-led pieces as well as classic wardrobe staples – but have you noticed one particularly personal detail about her style?

The royal – who is known to her close friends and family as ‘Bea’, or ‘B’ – loves to wear items with bumblebees adorned on them. Sweet!

On Christmas Day in 2019, Princess Beatrice looked elegant as she was pictured walking to St Mary’s Magdalene church with the royal family, wearing a camel coat by The Fold Finchley, which she paired with Saint Laurent Babies ankle boots and a belt from Zara.

But we were particularly taken with her Wilbur & Gussie bag, which featured a crystalised emblem of a bee.

This isn’t the first time Princess Eugenie’s little sister has worn fashion items bearing the insect. Back in April 2019, she dressed down for a date night with now-husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, wearing a pair of golden-embroidered Gucci loafers, which sell for £645.

The designer’s classic ‘Jordaan’ loafers are a favourite amongst fashion bloggers and celebrities, and have embroidered star and bumblebee motifs on the front.

And at an event at Annabel’s in London in 2019, Beatrice carried Gucci’s Queen Margaret GG mini bag which is priced at £850.

The bag is adorned with the metal bee, with glass pearls and multicolour crystals.

Sweetly, it was revealed in 2017 that Beatrice uses bumblebee motif stationary to write her personal letters. A handwritten note which was featured in Chaos magazine showed that her monogrammed paper features a bee beneath a crown. How cute is that?

During an interview with Vogue in 2018, Princess Beatrice and Eugenie revealed that just like all sisters they argue over clothes – and their worst argument was over a pair of shoes!

“We have the same size feet and both of us had identical pairs. One pair got trashed and the other sister may have swapped them…”
