Spotlight: Victoria Beckham


It's not everyday you see Victoria Beckham wearing a pale-blue cable knit jumper so this is a real treat. Victoria has graced the cover of British Vogue a couple of times, complete with her signature 'hand on head' pose so this cover for February's issue is a pleasant surprise. 


The pale colours scream '90s' but I absolutely love it; the 90s is my favourite era, after all. It's a shame Victoria can't shake that whole 'stiff pout' vibe (I'm sure there's dodgy connotations there somewhere but you get the picture) because she's actually a really beautiful woman. It's not going to be the most exciting cover of 2011 but for those that keep saying she's boring just think: at least it's not Cheryl Cole and she does design some amazing clothes. When you think back to when she fronted the whole WAG revolution, it's a miracle she's come out on top; you only have to Google 'Victoria Beckham WAG' to see what I mean...

Anyway, apologies AGAIN for not posting for ages - I had the flu and am now cracking the whip on my dissertation, keep checking back though as I will get back on track ASAP! What do you think of Victoria's latest cover? Does she get a thumbs up?

Cheryl Cole? In Vogue? I don't think so...

I ordinarily look forward to Vogue coming through the front door but in recent months I'd rather it didn't; it's gotten so god damn boring.

It's either Kate Moss or a sold-out-celebrity-looking-for-extra-publicity-on-their-latest-straight-to-DVD blockbuster. Ok so I'm exaggerating a little but seriously, considering it's supposed to be the fashion Bible, where is the fashion? Not only does this cover offend me with it's horrid flowers/summer palette/awful graphics but Cheryl Cole is more Cosmopolitan than Vogue ("Exclusive Update" - who gives a shit?!).


Anna would never let this see light of day let alone publish it and Grace would probably (or already has) have a fit at the mere sight of it. Don't get me wrong, I love a bit of Cheryl but this is not cool. Patrick Demarchelier should know better too, because lets be honest, the editorial is just as terrible as the cover. 


I don't think there's much else to say other than if someone ever vomits near me, I have suitable cleaning material. Amen.
