Re: Victoria Beckhams style?
I was talking about Mac_Whore's post, which yours was under.
But, if you wish to address the other post as well, it's a specific individual, not all skinny girls.

This is the normal flow of conversation.
There is no reason to bash someone because they are thin. I have concern with those who are at the extreme of both sides of the spectrum. Too thin and too heavy aren't healthy. There is a healthy medium between concave skinny and obese.
There were several broad statements about her weight and one about "flab". No one was illustrating the middle ground. Again...I would love to talk about Victoria Beckham's style.

That said, that comment would have been better directed at chavettes.

Re: Victoria Beckhams style?
I admire V.B for wearing shoes that fit her.

Re: Victoria Beckhams style?
She has great legs, but I kinda miss seeing a softer look from her. I always like her shoes, but I rarely like her clothing unless it's understated. The rest of her seems so over-the-top that understated, muted clothing seems to suit her best.
She's always just so harsh or unreal looking to me. Her style seems too plasticky (her hair for one), too hardened (her breasts are painful to look at, imho), or too tanned. I miss her pale-and-dark vixeny days from the Spice Girls. Her current physical appearance isn't what I find attractive, but a lot of people do, so diff'rent strokes and all that.

Re: Victoria Beckhams style?
I love VB I find her so stylish and chic even though her looks are safe and unoriginal she pulls them off, I can't see another celeb out there now being able to do that perfectly polished without looking silly; I have to admit that haircut and new image got her a place as a style/fashion icon.

Re: Victoria Beckhams style?
I think I'm the only person who HATES victoria beckham.
people will disagree with what i say but oh well...
i'm not a music expert... but she can't sing to save her life. my opinion of her is that all she is is a talentless clothes horse.
i don't think she is attractive by any means either. she is 'posh' spice when she's far from posh!
ughh seriously i'm getting aggravated just talking about her hahah i'll shut up now.

I completely agree with your statement. Sorry glam8babe, I think your gorgeous....but Victoria Becham ? lol. I know that we all have different preferences and tastes.
I don't know how to put it nicely....
But she looks like a tortured robot to me. Her hair isn't really nice ( I liked her "spice girl" hair better,) her skin is too orange, her outfits aren't always the best (I think people make a big deal out of nothing- I don't like her style really) and she just doesn't look natural to me at all. She looks like if she is trying not to breathe in all of her outfits, since they look so skin tight. I just think she looks uncomfortable in everything she wears.
I liked her better 'back in the day' when she was fuller and more natural looking (even though she wore skimpy outfits lol)

thank you! someone else who thinks it! my mum agrees too, she says she looks like a pug hahah even though pugs are quite cute, but an ugly pug she means :P
also she annoys me because she looks so bloody miserable all the time. seriously... CHEER UP! haha.
and what does she actually do now? she just skulks around pouting and trying to look pretty. grrr!!

Re: Victoria Beckhams style?
Have I been under a rock? Is she singing again? I still listen to Spice Girls turned up really loud when I'm driving
Oh, and is it just me or is her foundation really light in that picture?
I think the hair cut suits her, but I just hope that everyone doesn't run out and get it (like her bob)... that'd be a disaster!

LOL! I havent heard that word in ages too! Man that brings back the days where Chavs were at the hype.
It apparently stands for Cheltenham average...Which is annoying because I live in Cheltenham and never ever was a Chav! Arghh!
Sorry random input there!

Re: Victoria Beckhams style?
^^ Wow i wondered where Chav came from! Cheltenham, wouldnt have thought that!
I dont mind VB at all... I think she pulls off practically everything she wears but has got it wrong a couple of times. It would be nice to see her less tanned up sometimes but maybe its the lighting in the pictures.
I think if it wasnt for her fashion status and costant morphing, she would just be another WAG so kudos to her for enjoying herself, her money, her status as a fashion icon (to some ppl) and also for being a mother to three young boys.

Re: Victoria Beckhams style?
I love the new cut but it's definately time for her to have a sandwich...can we say lollipop?! She was always on the thin side but the shorter hair draws more attention to her shoulders etc (or lack thereof...)

Re: Victoria Beckhams style?
Im not keen on the new hair at all. I don't take much notice of her really, just look at the bag she's carrying
Mind you if we all had her money then we'd all be style icons

Re: Victoria Beckhams style?
i also noticed the light foundation compared to the rest of her body and the light hands aswell. I hadn't seen this haircut before now..i do think it suits her nicely! and i love the colour but not a massive fan of the cut myself. I think she looks gorgeous in that dress too!

Re: Victoria Beckhams style?
she needs to ditch the tan and embrace her natural skin colour
she'd look better
i'm like her number 1 fan LOL fell in love with her the first time i saw her in wannabe video back in 1996
