Victoria Beckham’s favorite accessory

Posted by Sophie on Friday, March 12th, 2010

One accessory Victoria Beckham loves to wear along with her sky-high stilettos is her watch. She has been spotted numerous times wearing a men’s gold Rolex watch over the last several years all around the globe.

Men’s watches or boyfriend watches are super chic and versatile accessory pieces. This is why many women tend to favor men’s watches. A larger, more traditional timepiece like Victoria’s gold Rolex looks so stylish whether worn with a tailored dress or just a pair of jeans and tank top.

Go for watches with a simple yet elegant design that will go with almost everything. Avoid overly embellished watches because they can look gimmicky and juvenile.

You can find nice vintage Rolex watches for reasonable prices on sites like eBay, Amazon, and other second hand online shops. For the budget-minded there are plenty of options in the $100 range from popular name brands. For example, Michael Kors, Seiko, Guess, Pulsar, just to name a few. You are now one step closer to looking Posh!

Cover Girls – Celebs or Models

Posted by Sophie on Monday, February 15th, 2010


Harper’s Bazaar April 93 (Nadja Auermann)

There was a time when models reigned the fashion magazine covers… good times.  Now and over the last several years fashion magazines are bombarded with celebs gracing the covers.  Almost every single fashion magazine I subscribe to arrives with a celeb pic right on the front.  I’m clearly aware of celebs’ selling power but it gets old seeing them on one mag after another.  Don’t we see them enough already?  I sure do miss seeing models on the covers like in the 80’s & 90’s.  Sometimes it’s refreshing to see faces that we are not so familiar with… even no name models or perhaps up & coming designers would be neat.  It’s clear that this country is still celebrity-obsessed.  European mags are not as bad.  Thank goodness.

Recent covers from around the world.  Nice!

Victoria Beckham in Flats!!!

Posted by Sophie on Tuesday, January 26th, 2010

No way… Victoria Beckham arrived at LAX airport wearing flats… OMG!!!  Flats!  LOL.  Posh is an avid lover of insanely high heels and this is like the first time I’ve ever seen her in flats (I’ve seen her once in flipflops).  What in the world is going on?  I remember her saying this about ballet flats,

“I beyond hate ballerina flats. I can’t walk in them.
Unless they’re on a ballet dancer doing ballet, I just don’t get it.
I love heels.

Oookay…Victoria… did you lose your mind?

I do prefer heels over flats overall but I think black leather flats look so chic when paired with black tights.  Plus, these are sooo comfy!

Victoria Beckham – Airport Patrol

Posted by Sophie on Friday, April 24th, 2009

Move it, Move it… Victoria Beckham is on her patrol!  Victoria is dressed in military style, head-to-toe in gray.  I prefer a casual attire while traveling, however Victoria has no problem suiting it up even looking like… Mrs. Hitler?  Perhaps Victoria is ready to arrest any gal that messes with her gorgeous hubby?  LOL!

Each of her accessories are quite lovely & luxurious… separately.  Personally, the military inspired hat would be more flattering with a simpler ensemble and that fancy Valentino sequin bag does not work with her outfit either.

It’s usually better to accent with one piece like a military jacket so you won’t be mistaken as a German trooper.  Here is an example of Victoria’s better military chic style when she mixes & matches different styles.

Found this perfect gray military jacket – Zooey cotton fleece military jacket.  The cotton fleece makes it so comfy with that cool military style feel to it.  Yours for only $57.74.

Splurge vs Steal – Bleached Balmain Jeans

Posted by Sophie on Sunday, April 12th, 2009

I’ve always thought Victoria Beckham looks amazing in jeans although she hasn’t been wearing them as much lately.  So, what do you think of her recent outfit, head to toe in Balmain?

Just the military jacket & the jeans together are well over $9000!  Excuse me?  LOL!  I must admit though, that the Balmain Collection really rocks!  The loveliness of rock-chick style is unbelievably hip & cool!

I’m not too keen on the pointy shoulders on Victoria but lusting after her bleached Balmain jeans (not it’s ridiculous price… uhhhhhhhhh no)!  I’ve always been a fan of distressed jeans that has rips & tears or bleached detailing since the 80’s and it looks like they are coming back!  And I welcome it!
