The real Baby Spice?

According to British Newspaper, the Daily Mail, Victoria Beckham is the new Baby Spice in a new advertising campaign for Marc Jacobs.


It says "Victoria Beckham may look young for her 33 years but the jury is still out on whether she can carry off sucking her thumb in the latest Marc Jacobs campaign.

In new images advertising the New York designer's latest creations, the former Spice Girl, designer and mother-of-three is shown curled up in a multi-coloured maxi-dress in the foetal position.

Bizarrely, she is seen sucking her thumb, while wearing her trademark oversized sunglasses and a pair of yellow gloves that bear an uncanny resemblance to Marigolds.

In a second picture, Victoria models one of Jacobs' much sought-after bags which is decorated with a big gold frog. But clearly, she already has her prince in football husband David Beckham.

Posh has been chasing fashion icon status since leaving the girl group launching her own range of sunglasses, and fashionable dVb denim line.

And it seemed that her style credentials were cemented when she achieved the coveted cover of British Vogue.

But a backlash soon followed, with the magazine receiving criticism from readers for its decision with some threatening to cancel their subscriptions.

However, Jacobs' decision to use Posh in his Spring ad campaign shot by noted fashion photographer Juergen Teller is undoubtedly another feather in the former Spice Girl's fashionable cap.
