Case Of Mistaken Identity


For those who have said Victoria was wearing the same at Wembley to the San Siro. She wasn't.

She wore a leather jacket and Jimmy Choo clutch to Wembley, and a Wool coat with puffy sleeves and a Hermes bag to the San Siro.

David Beckham Benched For The First Time


David Beckham was named on the bench for the first time since joining Milan.

Beckham sat alongside Ronaldinho and Andriy Shevchenko on a star-studded bench but it was the latter pair who saw action as David stayed on the sidelines for the full 90 minutes.

Injury-time goals from Ronaldinho and Filippo Inzaghi gave Milan a 2-0 win over Lecce at the San Siro tonight.

Victoria was in the stands with the boys.

Time.com's 10 Questions For Victoria Beckham

What made you decide to design clothes?
It's just always been something that I've wanted to do. It's my passion. I love women's bodies. I love luxury. I've waited a long time to do this, and I didn't want to do it until I could do it properly.

Do you design for a particular body type or with a particular woman in mind?
Everything that I design I would wear myself. I get a lot of inspiration from the '40s and '50s, so corsetry plays a huge role in the collection. It can help give an illusion of shape by using a bigger shoulder pad, and having a corset gives the illusion of having a tiny waist. But there are dresses that will cater to a lot of different shapes and sizes.

You did a tour recently with the spice girls. would you ever return to music?
No. I'm very respectful of the Spice Girls. What we did was fantastic. Actually, I'm seeing all the girls tomorrow night, which I'm excited about. But fashion is my passion; music isn't anymore. Everything I do revolves around my husband and my children. So I just wouldn't have the time, but on top of all of that, people change, and I've changed a lot, and it's just not where my heart is at anymore.

You seem to wear only high heels. would you ever design a line of shoes?
I would love to. Shoes and handbags, like most women, are something I have a little bit of an obsession with.

Your personal style has evolved a lot since your early days in the media with the spice girls. how do you feel when you look back at pictures of yourself?
People always say, "Do you cringe?" And I say, "Not at all." —Everybody changes. I love fashion, and I love changing my style, my hair, my makeup, and everything I've done in the past has made me what I am now. Not everyone is going to like what I do, but I look back at everything, and it makes me smile.

How do you feel when you look at those armani underwear photos that just came out?
I love those pictures. I worked very hard. I worked out for about four or five months previous to the shoot because I knew I'd be standing there in my knickers and a bra. So when I'm 50, I can look back and say, "Hey, Mommy didn't look too bad after having three kids."

You always seem unfazed by the paparazzi, and they're trailing you all the time. how do you maintain that sense of calm with all these people taking pictures of you?
It is what it is, and I don't like to get too stressed. I like to consider myself a relatively spiritual person, and I just do my thing. I'm very focused on what I do professionally, and I'm very focused on my family, and I don't really get too stressed out about what people say or what other people think. In fact, it's not on my radar at all. If there's anything negative, I don't want to know about it. I just do my own thing and get on with my life. We've got many more important things to think about — such as if something is happening with the children's school or have I paid for the swimming lessons?

Who is your favorite designer?
Antonio Berardi is one of my good friends. I've known him for 10 years, and he made one of my wedding dresses. We had lunch this afternoon, and he took me to the showroom, and his precollection is absolutely amazing. So I'm a big fan of his at the moment.

Who are other people you admire in other fields?
You know myself and David, we both love art. We have a lot of respect for Damien Hirst and Julian Schnabel, and we've met them both, and they're very interesting characters. I also have a lot of respect for the working women out there. As you know, it's not easy when you're looking after children and you have a career as well.

In this rough economic climate, what kind of steps are you taking to cut back?
Everyone is cutting back in lots of different areas, and we are too. I wouldn't want to go into detail, because obviously that's personal, but I think it is something that is affecting absolutely everybody.

The Beckhams Leaving Wembley


Even after playing 35 mins at Wembley, David Beckham drove his family home after the game.

Victoria doesn't look too happy. I guess she was tired after the game.

David Beckham Blogs



Hi everyone,

I’m delighted with how things have gone with England this week. We won both games, which was obviously the main thing and we performed well too. Against Slovakia I thought we played really well and with great freedom. It’s always good to see players expressing themselves and I thought the team did that on Saturday and scored four excellent goals. It was also an incredibly proud moment for me to become the most capped outfield player. It’s no secret that I love playing for my country and if the manager thinks I’m good enough then I’ll always answer the call.

We knew it would be harder against the Ukraine and so it proved. We started well and then got the vital goal, but they were hard to break down and when my club mate Andriy Shevchenko scored it looked like it might be one of those nights. Fortunately we go a free-kick and I managed to find Steven Gerrard, who headed a brilliant ball into the path of John Terry and he did the rest. We’re still top of the group with a 100% record that we won’t give up easily. We’ve got some tough games to play before the group is decided, but we’re confident and looking ahead.

I’m off back to Milan now. We’ve a home game against Lecce on Sunday and now international duty is over for the time being I’m fully focused on helping the team win a Champions League place.

That’s all for now.

Take care,

David

In Victoria's Closet - Jimmy Choo Carolina Eel Skin Bag


At Wembley yesterday Victoria Beckham was carrying her Jimmy Choo Carolina Eel skin bag.

From the picture above, you can see that she has carried this bag as a clutch last year, when she went to dinner with her sister.

This bag is so retro chic. It's accented with gold band closure and water snake flap, it almost looked like a vintage piece from the '70s!

The bag is still available to purchase on the Jimmy Choo website for £779.


Back to the Balmain jacket. On this close up picture you can see that what I thought was a leather blouse, was actually the detachable internal breast panel, which she worn under the jacket, instead of over it, like in the Net-A-Porter picture.

To see more pictures of Victoria at the game, go to Zig-A-Zig-Ha.

David Beckham's Post Match Interview


CLICK HERE to see David Beckham's post match interview with the BBC.

As David is talking to the reporter he notices that another journalist is pushing a female journalist, so he stops the interview and says to the man "Mind the lady, please".

Such a gentleman. I love him so much.

Who Wore It Better? Rihanna or Victoria Beckham


Rihanna was the first wear this Balmain leather jacket when she dine with friends at Nobu in LA last week.

She wore jacket with a black top, ripped Siwy jeans, and Balmain studded sandals.

Victoria's look included a leather ruffle neck blouse, black jeans and simple pumps.

Victoria's look is less forced, so she wins this for me.


In Victoria's Closet - Balmain Leather Jacket


Last night Victoria Beckham wore Balmain leather jacket from the Spring 2009 collection.

The leather jacket has the trade mark bold shoulders, which is the signature of Christophe Decarnin work.

I really loved this collection, so I am glad to see Victoria wearing a piece from it.

The jacket is only available from the US Net-A-Porter site for $7,045, after selling out on the International site last week.


Even before I saw Victoria Beckham wearing this I loved it, now she's made me love it even more.

England Win As David Beckham Gets His 110th Cap


David Beckham came on in the second half of England's World Cup qualifier against the Ukraine.

David's best chance to score came from a free kick. He was so close, and his pained expression in the picture below, shows how disappointed he was.

David's biggest contribution came in with four minutes to go, after the Ukraine equalized via Andriy Shevchenko (David's AC Milan team mate).

England captain John Terry netted from close range following a David Beckham free-kick to put England in the lead and to end the scoreline at 2-1.

At the end of the match, David swapped shirts with Shevchenko. This is really rare as David doesn't always swap jerseys.

Victoria, boys and David's family were of course in the stands to cheer David on.
