Is Victoria Beckham Truly a Fashion Designer?

December 7, 2008 by Erin Balser  

An all leather Victoria Beckham arrives in LA with her hair looking even more bizarre!

This is the question The Daily Mail asked today.

They looked closely at Victoria Beckham’s line of dresses, known as the Victoria Beckham Collection, and noticed all the dresses look very similar to one of Victoria’s favorite designers-Roland Mouret. They did some further investigation and discovered that they used the same seamstress, same fabrics, same pattern maker and more.

“Roland set Victoria up with his pattern cutter and also introduced her to his fabric suppliers,” Victoria’s rep said when asked about the similarities and about Roland’s involvement in the collection. “The seamstress atelier in Battersea was introduced to Victoria via Roland – they are a couture atelier looking after many London-based designers.”

She was adamant, however, that Roland had no involvement in the creative process.

It’s an interesting observation and it’s fairly obvious that Roland is a big influence over Victoria. However, that’s all it could be.

Victoria Beckham in New York

December 7, 2008 by Erin Balser  

Before heading back home to Los Angeles, Victoria Beckham had to make a stop in New York City for some business. She was spotted walking through the meatpacking district in NYC on December 5, looking amazing in a dress of her own design and a fur. While I love the look, why isn’t she absolutely freezing?

That afternoon, Victoria popped into the Donna Karan store and visited the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Victoria Beckham Launches dvb in Germany

October 16, 2008 by Erin Balser  

Victoria Beckham is in Germany. Last night she launched her dvb clothing line at Jades Boutique in Duesseldorf. She looked great in a witty take on a mens’ pantsuit as she walked the purple carpet. The event was fairly private, so while Victoria did some meet-and-greets, there wasn’t tons of crowds there to greet her!

What do you think of Victotia’s outfit?

You can see an interview Victoria gave at the event here. In it, she talks about her love of fashion and her new haircut!

Victoria Beckham Gets a Trim, Jets to London

October 14, 2008 by Erin Balser  

Victoria Beckham was spotted leaving the Chris MacMillan salon in Beverly Hills on Friday. She did not look very impressed to see a photographer outsie the salon and did her best to hide her face and hair.

It seems like Victoria only cropped her hair yesterday, but I guess with a cut that short, it must be pretty high maintenance to keep it looking great.

The day after this cut, Victoria jetted off to London. She was spotted in the LAX airport wearing a sleek black dress and arriving in Heathrow hours later.

Here’s a video fo her at LAX. I hate flying, but with pandemonium like this, Posh must really hate it!

I like the dress. It’s modest and classy and very Victoria.

Beckhams’ Housekeeper Arrested

October 14, 2008 by Erin Balser  

According to the Daily Mail, a woman who worked as a housekeeper for David and Victoria Beckham was arrested on Friday for suspicion of theft. June Emmet and her husband Eric were accused of stealing personal items from the Beckhams and selling them on EBay for a profit.

They were discovered when Victoria’s mother noticed the familiar items online. They went to Victoria’s London home to confirm their suspicions and reported the Emmetts to the police.

The Emmetts are denying the charges, claiming the items were gifts from the Beckhams. However, Victoria’s mom maintains that this is impossible, as many of the items up for sales were unique gifts for Victoria and David.

“What is in the papers is fabricated nonsense. Totally fabricated, 99 per cent of it is totally untrue,” Mr. Emmett told the paper.

Brooklyn Beckham is a Beatles Fanatic

October 10, 2008 by Erin Balser  

According to the NY Post, Brooklyn Beckham, the 9-year-old oldest child of David and Victoria, has a favorite band–and it’s not mom’s band the Spice Girls! Instead, Brooklyn’s tastes go back about 40 years in the British music scene to arguably the greatest band ever–The Beatles.

Celebrities Attend Game 5 Of The NBA Finals

Victoria has been taking the boys to the Color Me Mine studio in Los Angeles quite a bit recently. Every time the Beckham family makes a visit, Victoria brings along their own soundtrack, including “Magical Mystery Tour” and “Rubber Soul.”

The staff at Color Me Mine doesn’t mind at all. When they asked Victoria about it, she said it was Brooklyn’s idea!

“Brooklyn just loves The Beatles,” she replied. “Can’t get him to listen to any of my records, though!”

It’s great to see the boys growing and developing their own likes and dislikes. Now that they aren’t into the Spice Girls, will a disinterest in soccer follow?

Victoria Beckham on Cover of UK Glamour

Victoria Beckham is the November cover girl for Glamour UK. It’s their celebrity style issue, and who better to have on their cover than the queen of celebrity style?

In the feature, she talks about her love for grapes, that she’s not trying t get pregnant, how much her boys love living in LA, and so much more.

Victoria doesn’t rule out having more children in the future, which is the same as always: maybe someday, not right now.

“It takes a lot of energy, and the thought of having another baby now would be a little bit much,” she tells the magazine. “Maybe in a year or two but right now, I’m having amazing career opportunities and I want to enjoy the boys.”

Victoria also talks about her new kitchen adventure. She’s recently become a big fan of making cupcakes.

“I’m very good at lasagna and spaghetti Bolognese,” she says. “I don’t eat them myself because I’m vegetarian. But for David the night before a game, it’s good to make sure he has protein and carbohydrates. … I’m very good at Dora The Explorer cupcakes too – out of a packet.”

The issue is expected to hit newsstands this week! You can see the cover here.

Mischa Barton Says Victoria Beckham Doesn’t Have Style

October 8, 2008 by Erin Balser  

Mischa Barton, former star of The OC, told the British Sun today that she doesn’t think Victoria Beckham is all that stylish. Yes, Mischa Barton.

“Posh doesn’t strike me as particularly stylish,” she said. “I don’t think she’s a good example of British style at all.”

I like Mischa and all, but where she get off saying that? I would hardly call her a definitive example of British fashion herself. The Sun has even put together a slide show of Mischa’s fashion choices so you can judge for yourself.

That, and she even insinuates that Victoria isn’t dressing for herself but for her fans and the media.

Not cool, Marissa Cooper. Even if you don’t like Victoria’s personal style, you have to at least respect what she’s done for fashion and for the celebrity/fashion relationship.

What about you? Do you agree with Mischa? Disagree?

“We can’t wait to come support Katie,” Victoria said. “Tom says she’s amazing, the reviews have been amazing. We’re so proud of her.”

I’m excited for when Katie’s show debuts too! There’s been so many rumors and speculation surrounding her lately, the show isn’t selling, her performance is going to tank, etc. I hope she steps up there and wows them all!
