One thing that’s become clear to us is that Beatrice Borromeo is one of the most elegant women in European royalty. The Italian journalist and aristocrat, wife of Pierre Casiraghi (son of Carolina of Monaco), is a true style reference thanks to her sophisticated and understated way of dressing.
Her best-kept secret? Proving that less is more, and that beyond dresses, heels, or luxury-brand garments, you can be very elegant. For example, with jeans. They are her great allies, as she knows how to pair them perfectly in her daily life.
Borromeo is clear that the key isn’t the type of jean, but how you wear it (though patterns, colors and details help). In this way, she pairs them with impeccable, structured blazers, feminine blouses with romantic airs, and discreet accessories, such as feminine shoes or bags in understated sizes.
Three elegant tricks I learned from Beatrice Borromeo
Her most important trick: the blazer. It doesn’t matter what it looks like, but it must have a good structure and, if possible, neutral tones. It transforms any simple pair of jeans, even more so with loafers or comfortable-heeled shoes.
Massimo Dutti jeans, €59.95.
Choose a classic cut. The aristocrat prefers straight styles like this, which skim the figure without being too tight. As for tones, opt for whites, creams, and light blue. Massimo Dutti jeans, 59.95 euros.
Cuidar los accesorios. A la hora de hablar de zapatos, decántate por unas merceditas, bailarinas de piel o velvet shoes. Y en cuanto al resto de complementos, sus favoritos son los bolsos estructurados, los cinturones de piel y las joyas delicadas.
White jeans from H&M, €44.99.
Soft colors. Although indigo blue pants are traditionally the most elegant, the aristocrat is clear that you can go further if the combo is discreet and harmonic. Her favorite tones are white, cream, and light blue. White jeans from H&M, 44.99 euros.
Beauty look. A pair of jeans looks more elegant when the rest of the look adheres to the codes of quiet luxury. For this, subtle makeup and discreet updos (such as high ponytails or low buns) will always work in your favor.
Sézane jeans, 120 euros.
High waist. It’s no small thing. They cinch the hips and flatten the waist, so they will always make you look more flattering. They also lengthen the legs. Not much else is needed. SÉZANE jeans, 120 euros.
