Princess Beatrice Spotted at Wimbledon in Her Favourite Skirt from Ceyloni
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were among the guests who attended some exciting tennis matches at Wimbledon on Tuesday, and so was Princess Beatrice.
However, the Queen's granddaughter was seen keeping a relatively low profile as she sat amongst the crowd in the stalls at Centre Court, while the Duke and Duchess sat in the Royal Box a few rows away.
Catherine looked stunning in her polka dot tea dress from Alexandre Riche, while Beatrice looked elegant in a navy and white midi skirt from Ceyloni, which she teamed with a black blazer.
The Princess was evidently trying to keep a low profile on Centre Court, but she gave away her cover by wearing one of her favourite skirts from Ceyloni.
Beatrice has proven to be a fan of the London-based label founded by Indian-born Ceyloni Lodda.
She has worn the nautical number several times before, including to London Fashion Week back in 2016.

Beatrice also wore this exact same outfit to the Queen's 90th birthday that same year.
The 33-year-old royal looked great in her striped ensemble.
Rendered in an all-over stripe, Beatrice's Ceyloni skirt featured a high-rise, front slip pockets and a pleated construction.
Beatrice paired the skirt with a crisp black blazer for some added chic.
To tie the outfit together, the Princess wore a huge pair of sunglasses.
Her ginger hair was styled with great volume.
While Beatrice was the centre of attention in the stalls, the Duchess of Cambridge stole the limelight in the Royal Box just several rows in front.
Fans appeared divided at Princess Beatrice's Wimbledon attendance.
Some took to social media to question why the Royal didn't join Catherine and William in the Royal Box.
According to Hello Reports, Beatrice joined the general public in lieu of the prime seats because the Princess attended as a brand ambassador.
Photographed without her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mosi, it's likely that the Royal was asked to join the brand's designated seating area away from the Royal Box.
This isn't the first time members of the Royal family have been spotted away from the limelight.
In previous years, avid sports fan Zara Tindall and her husband Mike have been pictured sitting among the Wimbledon crowds.
The reason isn't that the couple want to bend Royal rules or avoid certain family members, but because Zara was invited as a brand ambassador.
Last year, for instance, Zara and Mike were invited by luxury watch designer Rolex.
The Royal duo sat next to retired Formula One racing driver Nico Rosberg and his wife Vivienne Sybold.
And sat just behind them was the legendary British Formula One racing driver Sir Jackie Stewart who was photographed wearing a Rolex emblazoned straw hat.
Mum-of-three Zara is also a brand ambassador for Land Rover and Musto and her own jewellery range with Australian brand Cargilla, with experts estimating they could be worth a combined £1.1 million or more a year.
The Royal Box, located on Centre Court at the legendary South West 19 sports venue, has 74 seats reserved for members of the Royal family and invited guests of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club.
In order to secure an invitation to one of the seats available, guests have to be invited by the chairman of the All England Club, Ian Hewitt.
Attendees usually include heads of government, people from the world of tennis, commercial partners, British Armed Forces and prominent media organisations.
In conclusion, Princess Beatrice was spotted at Wimbledon in her favourite skirt from Ceyloni.
