Look for Less: Victoria Beckham’s London Look
July 3, 2009 by Erin Balser
Victoria Beckham looked great when she had a busy day in London in early June. She paired a Alaia dress with black accessories to put together a look that was equal parts sweet and sexy.

Here’s how you can get her look for less!

Match Victoria’s dress with the Metallic Crinkle Skirt from Ann Taylor (middle middle, $24.99) and her sheer top with the Sparkle & Fade Sheer Racerback Tank from Urban Outfitters (left top, $18.00).
You can get the bolero look with the Takara Cropped Cardigan from Dillard’s (middle top, $15.94), match her sunglasses with these knock-offs from Fred Flare (left middle, $11), her bracelet with the Rhinestone Encrusted Bracelet from Forever 21 (middle bottom, $12.80), and her headband with the Zebra Ribbon Headband from Charlotte Russe (right top, $2.99).
Finally, pick up the Nine West Medium Foreign Affairs bag from Endless (right bottom, $48.95) and the Gabriella Rocha
Aemilia shoes from Zappos (left bottom, $69.00).
Now you’re ready for a business meeting and a photo shoot in true VB style!

David & Victoria Beckham’s Rumored Romantic Getaway
July 3, 2009 by Erin Balser
David and Victoria Beckham will be celebrating their tenth wedding anniversary this weekend, on July 4th. There’s been lots of rumors about what the couple is going to do to commemorate this special occasion, but the most pervasive rumor is that the twosome will be spending a romantic weekend on the ultra-exclusive Necker Island.
Necker Island is owned by media magnate Richard Branson. There is only one building on the entire island, a 14-bedroom mansion that can be rented for $51,000 per night!
It’s so exclusive that David apparently had to even call in a few favors to make sure he got his reservation, The Sun claims. Their source reported that:
Becks has pulled in a few favours. He has bought Victoria a lot of other gifts to mark the occasion but the big surprise is the holiday to Necker. Richard Branson owns the paradise island and sorted the trip out, including all the travel arrangements. It will be something to remember.
I’m sure it will be! And with that much space, it will be easy to balance a romantic time with family fun if they decide to bring the boys along.
Regardless of what Victoria and David decide to do, I wish them the best! Happy Anniversary!

Look for Less: Victoria Beckham’s Polka Dot Trench
July 2, 2009 by Erin Balser
Victoria Beckham looked adorable in May when she was seen at the airport in a great polka dot trench. It was one of my favorite Victoria spring looks.

Here’s how you can get this look for less!

Delia’s has a great polka dot trench that’s a near exact match for V’s ($34.99). Add all black accessories like patent pumps from Charlotte Russe ($22.99), sunglasses from Fred Flare ($11) and a buckle tote from New York & Company ($27.96). Now you’re ready to face those grey skies in style!

David & Victoria Beckham’s Fall 2009 Armani Ads
July 2, 2009 by Erin Balser
Giogrio Armani unveiled the new Emporio Armani Fall/Winter 2009 ads starring David and Victoria Beckham and boy are they hot! These ads just keep getting better and better.

Shot by renowned photographers Merta Alas and Marcus Piggott in Milan, these ads will be featured in magazines and billboards for the rest of the summer.

The couple also starred in the Spring/Summer 2009 campaign together, which you can see here. Which set of ads do you like better? I’m not the biggest fan of David and Victoria’s hair here, so the older ads win for me! I’m still excited to see the future ads David and Victoria do together, though. They’ve signed on as models for Emporio Armani until 2010.

New Book on David Beckham: The Beckham Experiment
July 1, 2009 by Erin Balser
The Beckham Experiment: How the World’s Most Famous Athlete Tried to Conquer America by Grant Wahl will hit stores in North America on July 14th. The controversial book looks at how and why David came to America to play for the Los Angeles Galaxy and the kind of impact it had on the MLS and North American soccer in general.
Wahl goes behind the scenes of what he calls “the Beckham experiment” and shows the reader how the deal went down, what it was like to move to America, how the MLS and the Los Angeles Galaxy reacted to the soccer superstar on their turf and more.
I’m not sure how much of the book explores David’s recent stint with AC Milan and the rampant rumors he’s planning to leave the Galaxy permanently once his get-out clause in his contract becomes active in November.
Regardless, it should be an interesting and insightful look into David’s world the past two years.
Sports Illustrated has an excerpt from the book online, which you can read here. It’s very interesting and gives you an idea what to expect.
The Beckham Experiment can be pre-ordered through Amazon for $16.49.

Look for Less: Victoria Beckham at Brithday Party
June 30, 2009 by Erin Balser
Victoria Beckham looked smashing at David’s mom’s 60th birthday party over the weekend. I can’t post a great photo of her outfit, but you can see the complete look at PopSugar. I love the one-shouldered dress, it’s easy and elegant at the same time.

Here’s how you can get her look for less!

There’s lots of great one-shoulder LBDs on the market, but the cheapest and more Victoria-esque one I found was this Veronica M one-shoulder dress from the National Jean Company (left, $100).
Add towering black pumps like the Votemann pair from Aldo (right bottom, $69.95), a crisp belt like this patent one from Forever 21 (right middle. $6.80), and top the look off with a great snakeskin clutch like the Montelparo clutch from Aldo (right top, $35.00). Now you’re ready for a classy night out VB-style!

Look for Less: Victoria Beckham in the French Riveria
June 29, 2009 by Erin Balser
Victoria Beckham was the ultimate fashionista-on-vacation when she rocked cut-off shorts with a Hermes bag and Louboutin booties.

While her entire ensemble probably cost more than my monthly rent, it’s easy to emmulate the style of Miss V. Here’s how you can get her look for less!

Star with the basics, like the Basic Ribbed Tank(left top, $4.80) and the Jordin Denim Short (middle bottom, $15.80) from Forever 21. Throw on a comfy cardigan like the Silence & Noise Stitch Detail Cocoon Cardigan from Urban Outfitters (right top, $48.00).
Get yourself a pair of Louboutin knock-offs, like this pair from Jade Boutique (middle middle, $29.99). Add a cute necklace like the Antique Locket Necklace (left bottom, $5.80) and some sunglasses like this pair (middle top, $5.80), both from Forever 21.
Complete the look with a lookalike bag, like the Buckle Tote from New York & Company (right bottom , $27.96) and you’ll be as posh as ever for your summer getaway.

David, Victoria & Boys Celebrate David’s Mom’s 60th Birthday
June 29, 2009 by Erin Balser
Yesterday was David Beckham’s mother, Sandra’s, 60th birthday! The whole family was on hand to celebrate this grand occasion. The family held a surprise dinner for the proud mum at a restaurant her her home in Essex.

They did their best to keep the event a secret from the paparazzi as much as from Sandra. The ploy worked because the paparazzi only got a few shots of the family as they left the restaurant, meaning they enjoyed their dinner in peace.

“They crept in through the back so they could surprise the birthday girl. There were gasps of delight when they walked in with a lot of hugs and kisses,” an eyewitness tells the Mirror. “After the meal David gave a speech about his mum. It was just like any other family birthday party. Their children were running around with all the other kids.”
Victoria looked gorgeous in a one-shouldered black dress and the boys (including David!) were adorable all dressed up. What a wonderful surprise for Sandra, as she probably wasn’t expecting to see her son and grandsons!
