The photo on the left shows Princess Beatrice at the polo event at Cowdray Park in West Sussex yesterday.
It was markedly similar to the dress that she wore two years ago; however her hair and size were considerably different.
They are both a far cry from how she appeared in a bikini on the beach of St. Barts in 2008. After that photo she made a conscious decision to lose weight after suffering severe public embarrassment (not a new even within the Windsor clan- her mother was nicknamed 'the Duchess of Pork'.... to be fair, in hindsight, it is probably one of the less hurtful things which has been said about her) over her unflattering size and appearance (see the picture below). Since 2008 she has run in numerous marathons to raise money for charity.
Her newfound dedication to physical fitness is shared by her sister Eugenie who decided to hold a bicycle scavenger hunt through London for her last birthday party.
Personally (although applauding her recently svelte appearance) I would put money on the fact that she has been unable to eat due to the pubic mockery over the terrible fashion choices during the royal wedding. Unlike most fashion commentators I don't take issue with the hat. Beatrice has always had interesting interesting taste in hats and to be honest I didn't mind this one. What I minded was the color palette she chose. She never wears such pale clothing usually and not only was that not her color but the heavy dark eye makeup exacerbated the issue by making her skin tone appear paler than it actually was. It is a pity that she didn't pick a jewel tone similar to the one that she wore yesterday. (See below for a photo from yesterday of her with her American boyfriend, David Clark)
