PRINCESS GRACE'S GRANDDAUGHTER-IN-LAW

Oznell — Sun, 27 Nov 2022 19:59:12 GMT

European aristocrats are not one of my interests, but to me, Beatrice Borromeo is a style standout, worthy of Grace Kelly herself.

Love the little blue coat, and the cognac leather accessories.

She's married to Pierre Casiraghi, younger son of Princess Caroline, the older daughter of Princess Grace and Prince Rainier of Monaco.

She's Italian, a former journalist, youthful model, and the daughter of a count. Although, like her husband, Pierre Casiraghi, she inherited no title. He, however, is eighth in line to the Monaco throne.

Her lacy wedding dress, pretty.

Charming in warm weather.

Looking so pulled-together in a beautiful coat while awaiting the birth of one of her sons.

She has an affinity for red! Not everyone likes wide-brimmed hats, but I think this is superb on her.

And a more casual red "street dress", very flattering. Love the way her little son looks, preppy loafers and all!

Dramatic evening look:

Those striking Art Deco diamond earrings below, look so well with her "simple" (ha) diamond riviere necklace, sigh.

I think one of the things I appreciate about her style is the tribute it pays to more vintage looks, as with the Art Deco. England's Princess of Wales, Catherine, also has hints of a similar, but slightly less flamboyant, throwback style.

Wow, red makes an appearance again. Why not, if you look so good in it??

And, please note, she did NOT match her jewels to her gown, as I was mildly complaining that the British royals do a little too often. Dreamy emeralds, and the pendant looks to be cut en cabochon, my favorite...

She just seems to have that great Italian flair, while being so elegant and appropriate for different occasions...

In the last picture, it looks like she has attached a brooch to her diamond necklace.

Hubby is quite handsome.

I genuinely like her style, taste. Lovely lady and dresses appropriately.

How delightful that the Irish Kelly genes have surged to the forefront in the being of Pierre Casiraghi. The "Latin" in him has been subdued somewhat. I had grown used to the children (other than Albert and his children, whom he had with the very fair wife) and grandchildren reflecting their heritage with the dark hair and dark eyes. Inherited physical traits never fail to intrigue me.

ETA: Oznell, I believe that among the large number of things we do agree on is sartorial style. I recall that you once praised Maria Bartiromo's style of dress, and I wholeheartedly agreed with your opinion.

She is beautiful. I love her white dresses in pics #1 and #3.

thanks for sharing

@Oznell I had a dress like this red one only mine was sleeveless. Of course it was not made by an expensive designer. Back then I had a waistline and some estrogen so it looked good. LOL

I also like her blue coat and the cognac leather shoes/purse go well.

I like the light colored coat-I am partial to more ivory/off white for me. As though I would be able to model one. LOL

All the pics are nice-nothing overdone and both look great together!

Thank you!

The royal wives seem to favor Princess Grace. Her wedding dress is beautiful. It is elegant and modest.

Hey, I think you may very well be right, @Kachina624 ! They all seem to do that-- recycle pieces, attach brooches to necklaces, pearls or even just a ribbon to make a choker. It's all very 'cost-effective', ha.

Ha, ha, @scatcat -- you put your finger on it-- "Gene Wilder in 'Willie Wonka'"!! That's very good! Agree that Pierre is rather nice looking-- his look has refined quite a bit from the more 'Wilder-kooky' wedding pic-- now he looks more like a serious young Dad, quite attractive.

@Oznell - thanks for posting these pictures. I have not heard of her before, but she certainly has style and class. Time flies - Princess Caroline is now a grandmother!

Beautiful family and unlike the English royals, they seem to not be in the publice eye so much, at least in the American press.

@Oznell Thanks, I enjoyed looking at those. I was wondering if the red street dress she wore on the sidewalk with Hubbie and son had a selvage hem? The hemline was little fuzzy on my computer. It didn't look like it was just hemmed under. Love the cut of that dress, so retro and currant

I followed their courtship and marriage and then lost track. She had a couple of gorgeous wedding dresses and was married on her family's private island in Italy, iirc. Very chic and romantic.

Good looking family.

What a handsome family! Beatrice looks so lovely in everything she wears especially the red outfits which I love! Elegance and class just like Grace Kelly had when she wore her beautiful fashions! Thanks for sharing these photos, it is always enjoyable to see how others express their fashion sense with appeal and flair!

@Oznell

Great photos .... any idea how old this couple is?

The Monaco royals' children grew up behind the scenes ... I didn't realize Caroline's children were that old!

She is stunning...simplicity reigns. Refreshing to see classic styling...thanks for the share @Oznell

Re: PRINCESS GRACE'S GRANDDAUGHTER-IN-LAW

Oznell — Mon, 28 Nov 2022 13:10:39 GMT

@shoekitty, I was wondering about the hem also! Might just be the photograph, but not sure.

@Tinkrbl44, don't know, but I would guess mid to late 30's, perhaps...

Re: PRINCESS GRACE'S GRANDDAUGHTER-IN-LAW

Oznell — Mon, 28 Nov 2022 13:14:10 GMT

@phoenixbrd, same -- refreshing to see the classicism in dress, as opposed to sensationalistic grabs for attention we see constantly in 'show biz' displays....

Beautiful pics....I adore that wedding gown, everything about it speaks to me! Time sure does fly, I didn't realize that Caroline's children were as old as they are. Thank you for sharing!
