The return of the Pob: Trendsetter Victoria Beckham goes back to her favourite hairstyle

She has kept us guessing for weeks by wearing her hair tied back.

But Victoria Beckham finally unveiled her new longer locks yesterday as she arrived at Heathrow Airport to catch a flight back to Los Angeles.

And her new look is startlingly similar to the style that shot her to fame as part of the Spice Girls in the 90s.

While the 36-year-old has experimented with a variety of hairstyles - including a peroxide blonde crop and long hair extensions - she always seems to return to the Pob, or the Posh bob as it has come to be known.

But it remains to be seen how long the mother-of-three will stick with her current style, as she is renowned for getting bored with her hair very quickly.

As she strolled through the airport yesterday, Victoria also showed why she was recently named the World's Most Glamorous Celebrity in a poll by MaxFactor.

In fact, the former Spice Girls singer fought off competition from Angelina Jolie and Dannii Minogue to top the poll.

Variety: Victoria has experimented with a variety of looks including longer hair extensions and a short blonde crop

Wearing a black minidress with matching cardigan, accessorised with nude heels and a black Hermés Birkin bag, Victoria looked ever the style icon.

But Victoria has not always been considered such a fashionista.

During her time with the Spice Girls, she was known as Posh Spice, but after marrying David Beckham in 1999 she began adopting a WAG-inspired wardrobe of hotpants, hair extensions and huge sunglasses.

However, while the sunglasses remain perched firmly on Victoria's nose, her fashion sense has changed drastically over the past few years.

She has now secured her place as one of the most forward-thinking celebrities in the fashion industry, thanks to her critically-acclaimed clothing line.
