  • Royal sisters both opted for blue dresses and studded heels for first day of Ascot
  • Eugenie was seen laughing with cousin Zara Tindall and Duchess of Cambridge 

They share an incredibly close bond as sisters, and today Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie were completely in sync as they both turned out in blue outfits at Royal Ascot. 

Beatrice, 30, wore a pale blue collared dress from Maje, nipped in at the waist with a bow belt, teamed with a tasseled wide-brimmed hat by Bundle MacLaren.

Meanwhile, her sister Eugenie, 29, opted for a sleeveless teal Calvin Klein dress with a pleated skirt, but added an extra splash of colour with a bold yellow hat, worn at a jaunty angle.

Both of the sisters donned studded heels for the event, with Beatrice going for a nude pointed pair, while Eugenie teamed her dress with silver. 

The sisters arrived at the event by carriage and waved to the crowds as they made their way towards their other family members.

Also at the five-day event was their cousin Zara Tindall, who was dressed in a stunning long gown covered in pink and blue flowers.

It appeared that blue could have been a theme for the royal family this year with the Duchess of Cambridge also opting for a powder blue outfit.

Elsewhere Prince Charles, 70, was spotted chuckling as he and the Duchess of Cornwall, 71, spoke to a mounted jockey, while Prince Andrew and Prince Edward kept a rather more low profile.

Also in attendance were Queen Maxima and King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands, who are guests of the royal family after attending the Order of the Garter Service at Windsor Castle yesterday.

The royal carriage procession this afternoon marked the official start of the annual five-day racing festival, which kicks off with the Queen Anne Stakes today and will run until Friday.

It has long been a highlight of the British social calendar, with thousands of well-heeled racegoers turning out in their finest morning suits, summer dresses, and most extravagant hats for the occasion.

Today was no exception, with Lady Kitty Spencer, Kirsty Gallacher, Jodie Kidd and Viscountess Weymouth among the high-profile attendees who dressed to the nines.
