What's with the baggy jeans? Victoria Beckham dresses more like David in Disneyland

Updated 17:41pm on 12 Jun 2008




If it wasn’t for the sunglasses and the scowl, you’d be forgiven for not recognising Victoria Beckham.

The former Spice Girl traded in her signature skinny trousers for a rather manly pair of baggy jeans while on a family trip to Disneyland.

Posh looked like she'd raided her husband's wardrobe, teaming the loose-fitting denim with a cleavage-covering black t-shirt.

Walking tall: Posh's usual attire

And for once, practicality overruled fashion in the footwear department, with Posh resigning herself to a pair of flip flops instead of her signature six-inch heels.

The jeans proved a particularly unusual choice, considering Posh has spent months promoting her own dVb brand of slim-line denim both in the US and UK.

The range hasn't exactly been a hit Stateside - in April her jeans were taken off the shelves of L.A's designer boutiques and dumped into the bins of bargain basement superstores.

And now it seems not even Posh is a fan of her own trademark look.

She was joined by her husband David and sons Brooklyn, nine, Romeo, seven, and Cruz, three, but six hours in the Californian sun was too much for the littlest Beckham, who was soon fast asleep.

Meanwhile, David has just been named one of the 10 most powerful celebrities in the world by Forbes magazine.

The LA Galaxy star, who earned £25 million in the past year, jumped from 15th to fifth place on this year's list, beating out other megawatt stars including Madonna, The Rolling Stones and Elton John.

Posh also makes an appearance on the list, coming in at 50 as part of the Spice Girls.

The couple's close friend, celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay, made the list for the first time in 95th place.

Chat show host Oprah Winfrey retained her position at the top spot of the list thanks to her ability to draw in 30 million viewers a week and  yearly earnings of £140 million.

Even though she's still more immaculately groomed than many of us would be with the 'perfect' hair and designer shades, for once, she looks normal. This world has so many more significant problems than the obsession with this woman's attire, however, I can understand how both she and spectators have caught up in this 'crazy' frenzy, in this crazy media age.
But hey, if we're really going to go there and review her dress sense, the best tip I could give her is, 'relax and try and look normal but stylish' as opposed to the over-made, totally artificial usual get up she'll wear just to leave the front door.
Give it up love and try and contribute something a little more 'real' and beneficial to life.

She's on a family day out in Disney land ... leave her alone! one minute she's too dressed up and now she's too dressed down, make your mind up!

Maybe she's pregnant and preparing the paparazzi for months of bump-covering clothing!

Agreed. She can't win. Imagine the ridicule if she tottered around Disneyland in a pair of heels with her cleavage hanging over the top of a corset.

I agree, I think she looks better!

I think she looks nice - it's good for her to dress "normally" now and then - stop criticising her!!
