Posh Boots: Fashion Forward or Fashion Fail?

Category: Uncategorized

Victoria Beckham broke out a pair of Gucci over-the-knee boots in New York at Bergdorf Goodman’s Fashion Night Out.

Much to discuss here, no? The Giles Deacon mini dress with thigh boot combo is a tricky one to pull off. After all, there is a fine line between street style and street walker. We’re not quite sure if this works as a signature look for Mrs. B, but we are all over those booties. (And hello? Compared to this alternative, the style winner is clear.)

Will you be investing in the big boot trend this fall? Is Victoria’s look a fashion hell-yeah or a fashion fail?

   The make-up reminds me of the Addams family.. the tan is awful.
   The outfit is ok. Somehow, she makes it work, I think.

   The boots are a big NO NO

   Dress Thumbs up, am liking the colour an all

   Makeup/Tan- Hidious, the tan is killing me tough, and her face is too shiny

   Hair- looks rather boring and looks thin

   Actually I really like her dress; it shows a little bit of unusual risk. It is kind of 80s throwback, no? However, with those boots, NO!!!!

    The boots are a winner, the dress is ok for wearing at an outdoor cafe around the Med but it’s wrong with those boots. Once again, high profile ladies should remember that less is more where fake tan is concerned. It can completely destroy a look.

    Her makeup and fake tan look terrible. The outfit is pretty cool and I’m glad her hair is growing out a bit. BTW, did you all see this already?

    Someone needs to get girlfriend some face powder or oil blotting sheets – her face is shine city. I do love Posh though.

    i like the boots. i would prefer them in suede, maybe? but i don’t like the dress… not the hair or make-up. i agree, she looks like a hooker

    Love the boots! Maybe not the shiny parts so much, but still… they’re pretty cool. The dress, I’m not so sold on.

    All the fashion magazines are screaming about over-the-knee boots, but i think that Victoria took it waaaaaaay too far.

    Yeah, it’s a big fashion fail…

    Love the boots, but the whole outfits looks hideous
22. mariap says:

    September 11, 2009 at 13:03

    The whole outfit from the eye make-up to the boots just screams uncomfortable AND trashy. Check it out, she wears that and someone to the left has a pair of Nike’s from the 80’s!

    This is quite possibly one of the worst outfits I have ever seen. Ew.

    Fail with the boots. The dress can be okay.

    YUCK! It doesn’t matter if they’re Gucci or the perfect fall shoes. She looks terrible and matching her tan with the colour of her dress isn’t helping her case.

    She looks amazing. Thigh highs are numero uno for Fall.

    Awful, awful, awful. Sorry, Posh, i think a fail this time. All that money spent makes you look very cheap indeed.
