Victoria Beckham Goes Mostly Nekkid

... well, kinda
July 21st, 2008

Now, I’m not sure what in the world was going on with Vicki B. when she decided to go out in public lookin’ fresh and natural but … I must admit that I really like it. Not only did VB opt out of wearing make-up (the horror!) but she also decided to wear cut-off jean shorts and flip flops! I mean, seriously!


Victoria Beckham took herself off glamour duty during a family day at a Los Angeles hotel over the weekend, reclining poolside without her heels - or make-up. The former Spice Girl, who is rarely seen in public without a full face of foundation, let her guard down while relaxing with her mother Jackie and son Romeo … her au naturel look, complete with pinned back hair, revealed her problem skin, which revealed … she has to work hard to look red carpet-ready. She told Allure magazine: “As you can see, I’m a normal-looking girl, and I just make the best of what I have. I’m not out-of-the-ordinary-looking at all – I’m incredibly ordinary.” And without a hint of irony, she also claimed she doesn’t like being the centre of attention and that in fact, she’s actually uncomfortable in the spotlight. She insisted: “I’m not the kind of person that stands there and loves the attention. It might look that way, but it makes me very, very nervous.”

Hands down, this is the best I’ve ever seen Mrs. Victoria Beckham. She may look fierce and fabulous from time to time but this stripped bare look is so much more appealing. Hello, she looks human rather than robotic. I would love to see more of this kind of Vicki B. rather than the overly made-up, plastic-looking one we see all the time. There is something to be said for natural beauty … I’m glad that VB is finally comfortable enough to show us hers.

The jean shorts and flip-flops, tho? I’m still having a hard time processing. Wow.

    I like VB looking au natural. She doesn’t look bad at all with no makeup (like some celebs)

  2. Indiesr Says:

    The pressure to fit in Hollywood is finally taking its toll on Vicky…I’m not a big fan of hers (I think she is vain) But I must say, she really looks normal and also pretty in these photos, she should tone it down like this more often. :)

  3. Mr. Gyllenhaal Says:

    She looks good! I am surprised because some celebrities look like shit without makeup on. I really thought she would be one of them but I am happy to say I was wrong.

  4. Kait Says:

    She looks absolutely gorgeous like sans makeup and heels and fancy clothes. She’s a natural beauty and needs to let that shine.

  5. Ibby Says:

    I am loving her like this!!

  6. Selina Says:

    “Problem skin”?? The only “problem skin” I see is that she’s got some beauty marks! She looks GREAT with no makeup!

  7. Jane Says:

    She looks great like this! She looks so much more likeable and approachable. She should go out looking more natural more often.

  8. M3 Says:

    Wow, I guess the SoCal au natural vibe is taking hold of Ms. VB (the way most of us SoCal ladies look, not all plastic). I love this side of her.

  9. steph Says:

    I agree, I can’t see any “problem skin” - she looks great.

  10. Star Says:

    Uh, SoCal is all about lookin’ plastic.

  11. gossipreader Says:

    Don’t you wish you were her kid’s friends? Not only do you get to hang out at a great house, but poolside view just rocks.

  12. loria Says:

    i like VB this wayyy!! better than dressing up all the time.. shes looks great!

  13. G Says:

    oh star you’ve obvs never lived in SoCal or moved here from somewhere else.

  14. Irma Says:

    LOVING how Posh looks. You can never go wrong putting your hair up, shorts, t-shirt and flip-flops. And she doesn’t need makeup at all. Most celebrities only look good because of it but she looks better without it. I hope she keeps rockin’ this look.

  15. Jessica Says:

    I am really happy that she had the confidence to go out of doors without her usual get-up. She always puts in so much effort, which sure, it’s great…but it’s not necessary to be so dolled up all the time, especially with your kids running around. She looks lovely just the way she is. I hope the press about these photos doesn’t scare her into hiding behind tons of makeup and tight dresses again. She’s so pretty this way! And I bet her feet are relieved to be in flip flops even if just for thirty minutes :)

  16. Sheela Says:

    She looks incredible!

  17. Aidan Says:

    Wow. I mean…WOW. I don’t know WTF I was expecting, but she looks damn good, and you know what? Good for her. And I found her comment that she just ‘makes the best of what she’s got’ to be surprisingly candid and actually great advice for those who seek to emulate her. During the first Spice incarnation, Posh was my favorite (after Ginger) but that dimmed after she became all about HER fabulosity and less about promoting that everyone was fabulous in some way, but now? Yeah. Kinda like her. RAWK, Vicki B!

  18. Nathiest Says:

    and she looks a million times the hotter

  19. Shannon Says:

  21. Mimi Says:

    She looks FAB, and really needs to embrace the natural look more often! :)

  22. Kari Says:

    Ok I think she still looks great but she has the personality of a shoe, a stinky one!

  23. Manda Says:

    “revealed her problem skin”…

    Yeah, I would kill to have her “problems”!

  24. Joanne Says:

    Victoria looks fab! … and I don’t see any problem skin here! She looks so fresh!

  25. Jenn Says:

    Now, with her au natural get up she can have the MOST PERFECT accessory and that is learning the art of smiling. Your almost there Vicki…keep workin’ at it!

  26. curt Says:

    nasty looking

  27. http://webescape.wordpress.com/ Says:

    She doesn’t look as scary skinny, wonder if baby number 4 might be on the way ?

  28. Sandra Says:

    She looks great like this!
    I’m starting to like her, for once

  29. danna Says:

    the BEST she has ever looked.

  30. julie Says:

    She is really pretty. And I agree, there is no problem skin, just freckles, and they’re cute!

    As for her smiling, I’ve heard her say she doesn’t like how she looks when she smiles in pictures. That’s understandable.

  31. Taylor Says:

    She looks great as is! I love her wearing normal footwear instead of the impossible height-defying heels she usually sports. I hope we see more of this normal & natural look from her in the future. Go Victoria!

  32. blah Says:

    She looks completely fabulous! I really hope she’ll let the world see this natural side of her more often. She really, really looks beautiful. (And I agree with the others, a couple of freckles doesn’t make for “problem skin”. Her skin looks great.)

  33. April Says:

    She looks beautiful - which is something to be said for all the other Hollywood “beauties” who only look good with professional makeup done and really scarily different when caught without hair and makeup done.

  34. LoveFromDetroit Says:

    She looks HOT!!!! I mean, SMOKIN’ HOT! I love the ‘all natural’ look. She needs to looks this way more often!

  35. Amanda Says:

    Beautiful!!!
