Daily Fashion Tip –- This Is MAYJAH!! Some Style Tips from Victoria Beckham’s New Book
The woman is revered in the Western World, and probably in the Eastern one as well, as a woman who knows style, carries if off seemingly effortlessly, AND inspires others to do the same. She is popularly known as Posh Spice, and this more for the high maintenance lifestyle she embodies. Not only is she one of the more famous Spice Girls, but she is also famous for spousal association with David Beckham, and he is probably her most stylish accessory out of all of them. Add a few noteworthy endorsements, her own DVB fashion line, and her latest fragrance hitting the net, this girl also knows how to market her talents as well. Now to add to her list of stylish endeavors is her latest book that falls right in line with Rachel Zoe’s and Nina Garcia’s novellas, a book on how to be that much more stylish. And it is in bookstores now. The book is part high-end international shopping guide, and part how to look prettier guide with her famous quips spattered throughout. She also offers some blank pages where you can write your own notes. The bottom line? The Posh life is in reach girls. As she says, This is, MAYJAH!! Let’s have a look at excerpts from Victoria Beckham’s That Extra Half an Inch: Hair, Heels and Everything in Between
Victoria Beckham on Denim….
“More than any other piece of clothing, jeans can show off your figure to its best, but if you get the wrong cut or style they will do you absolutely no favours at all.”
Victoria Beckham on Sunglasses…….
“The crucial accessory for me is a good pair of sunglasses. If you’ve ever wondered why I’m always wearing them it’s very simple: as a mum, I often don’t get that much sleep, I don’t always have time to put on the Touche Éclat in the mornings, and who can be bothered putting on eyeshadow first thing in the day anyway? So, instead, I just throw on the Chanel sunglasses, which really do, as the fashion magazines say, hide a multitude of sins.”
Ah, we know this one well, we’ve talked about it quite a bit. Victoria on underwear peeks!
“The absolute worst thing anyone can do with their jeans is to pull their G-string over the waistband.…I don’t mind a bit of lingerie showing…but that is very different from bending over in Piccadilly Circus and showing your thong.”
And what does Mrs. Becks have to say about the LBD….
“A simple black pencil dress is probably one of the most useful things you can own because you can dress it up in so many different ways and no one will realize you’re wearing the same thing over and over.”
And to remind us all just how funny this girl really is, here are her thoughts on tit tape.
“Don’t bother with tit tape which you see in some high-street stores: go to a proper wig shop and get the real stuff as it’s much tougher and nothing will go anywhere when you’ve got that on. Word of warning, though: be careful when you take it off that you don’t rip a nipple off too, as it really is very strong.”
And perhaps, her most important tip of all. I LOVE LOVE this one…..
“If you feel particularly good about yourself in something, or someone important in your life makes a nice comment about it, you will always associate that outfit with that moment, and that’s why clothes work almost like a scrapbook of your life. At least they do for me, which is one reason why I have kept virtually everything I’ve ever worn.”
Gotta love her. Pick up That Extra Half an Inch: Hair, Heels and Everything in Between

Although the quotes you picked are very true and I LOVE her hair cut, Posh is just NOT my cuppa tea! I’m a little more east than north america and over here in the western part of europe the girl is pretty much the laughing stock of the “fashion” world! Sure there are some who put her on a peddestool, but alot of folks here thinks she’s just a bit of fluff….me included. My opinion-Nina is the way to go. Posh is a walking Barbie with WAY to much money and a hubby who’s more concerned with his hair and how a soccer ball can damage the styling than with life itself. I mean, come on, can you PLEASE stop pouting with that ridiculous pouty look you put on your face everytime a camera bulb flashes?! She does a good self-marketing job though…..
I love getting the perspectives from other parts of the world, it’s fascinating to see what others think about pop North American culture. I do agree on the haircut, and if and when the time should come, I am pretty sure this is the way I may go. This cut has been sitting in my pile of mag ‘do’s’ for the day I make that call to the stylist.
Honestly, I’ve never been a Posh fan. However, I think her haircut suits her very well.
I love Victoria Beckham. She’s like Gay Jesus.
