  2. Let's forget we know it's Posh Spice - this is the photo of a woman looking fabulous, if a little thin.

  3. Sorry, dlb, I do not agree - with or without Mrs. Beckham, that is a photograph of a woman who is wearing clothing that fits poorly enough that it slouches down off one shoulder. I don't find her "fabulous" at all.

  4. Er, Toby, as my late mother used to say when defending my teenage outfits to my father: 'That's the fashion.'

  5. Posh looks much better with dark hair.

  6. Sorry, Linda - looking at Mrs. Beckham reminds me of such sartorial "icons" as Brittany Spears and Lindsey Lohan. Perhaps I have lumped her with the wrong crowd (she is, after all, supposedly raising Mrs. Tom Cruise's style), but looking at that makes me feel distinctly grouchy.
