Style Trial: Victoria Beckham

I’m not the biggest fan of Posh’s fashion sense, I usually think she looks over styled and a bit contrived, and this outfit is no exception.


Despite the fact that she usually goes for pretty simple clothes, I don’t think she ever really nails it. A white skirt, black top and cardie sounds pretty inoffensive on paper, but I just think it doesn’t work.


The skirt has a childlike look to it, and paired with the little ankle bows on the shoes and hairband just adds to the effect. Her top is has an unfortunate sheen off it that makes it look kind of cheap, although it undoubtedly cost a pretty penny.


She has an ubiquitous Hermes bag on one arm (she owns 100 of them, apparently, with a total cost topping the one million euro mark. Make me feel a bit better about my dress addiction!)


All this is topped off by her perma-frown and massive sunglasses.


So what do you think? Are you a fan of Victoria's fashion sense?

I definitely agree about the skirt being child-like, espiecally with those skinny legs! They should not be seen above the knee of anyone over 14. If she had ringlets she'd be away with it! Seriously, an a-line skirt to the knee would perfect the look for her.

I can only come to the conclusion that posh's reason for not smiling is that she is probably afraid of getting smile or laughter lines. It is time that she rid herself of those bumble bee glasses and look for something more suited to her petite face.

I think Posh gets too much criticism when it comes to her style and clothes. I guarantee you'll be seeing girls in a few months time wearing those ankle bows she has on which shoes what a trend setter she is.
