Victoria Beckham continues to collect those airmiles as she made another visit to London last week.

The frequent flyer donned her usual airport attire - head-to-toe black - but something was different.

Her usual Hermes Birkin bag was replaced by a sandy Louis Vuitton Spring 2010 messenger bag.

VB loves LV.

It’s a very usual choice for Victoria especially considering she was supposed to be anti-fur, and because the messenger bag it doesn’t really seem to suit her style.

I shouldn’t be complaining as I wished for her to switch things up, and it looks like she’s trying to do that.

I loved this bag in the purple, but what do you think?

Yah or Nay on VBs LV bag.

Before you pop out to get your sandwich from Pret A Manger, you should also pick up a copy of Harper’s Bazaar which features Victoria Beckham on the cover.

Victoria Beckham plays the noir heroine caught in sultry reverie in an exclusive fashion shoot for a special double cover December issue.

The critically acclaimed fashion designer, who has wowed the critics and top designers alike with her sexy elegant dresses, unveils an amazingly toned body and tight top knot hairstyle in a 16 page portfolio of sexy, chic photographs.

Photographed by Alexi Lubomirski, Victoria wears a range of seductive yet feminine looks from an Yves Saint Laurent leather bodysuit to her own figure-hugging silk gazar dress.

In the spectacular Harper’s Bazaar cover spread, several famous designers, including Antonio Berardi, Manolo Blahnik and Roberto Cavalli, also give their expert verdicts – all positive - on Victoria’s designs, a further acknowledgment that the industry is taking her seriously as a designer.

In the interview, Victoria also reveals to Harper’s Bazaar the secrets of her remarkable success and why fashion is her true calling . . . .

On staying true to her path: “People never believed the solo singing career, and it wasn’t the real me – I was a little bit lost at the time. I don’t mind making mistakes. I just can’t live with anyone else’s mistakes. I’m a complete control freak. I’m not the easiest person to work with because I’m so passionate and being a working mum, it’s a balancing act.”

I love Victoria Beckham because she is the master at manipulating the media.

Girlfriend doesn’t like basketball, she was at the Staples Center to show off her stunning new ‘do. Quite shamelessly and I love her for that.

The new ‘do?  I LOVE IT.

I’ve been campaign long and hard for her to return to her sexy senorita long locks but this softer, curly do is defiantly a step in the right direction.

She used to switch things up quite often, but I guess she’s more focused on producing her dress collection to concentrate on re-inventing herself.

I’m sure when it happens - and I’m still confident it will - she will blow us all away.

Victoria was dressed in dVb jeans, a black Rick Owens vest top and Christian Louboutin Maggie 140 pumps looked thoroughly bored during the game.

In case you were wondering LA Lakers and Dallas Mavericks were playing at the at Staples Center and the Lakers lost 80-94.

Victoria Beckham was in London recently to no doubt work in her collection which is produced in the UK.

The designer was spotted arriving at London’s Heathrow airport wearing her favourite black blazer, and standard accessories including YSL Trib Two pumps, Hermes Birkin and her blackberry.

What we haven’t seen before are these two tone cord jeans from her own dVb Spring 2010 denim collection.

They are a bit patchwork for my liking, but as usual VB makes them work.

You can view her Spring 2010 denim collection here.

Whilst departing London a few days later Victoria was again spotted in her self designed clothes.

This time she wore a felt cape from her Fall 2009 collection which has zippers on the sleeves.

Victoria is a girl after my own heart because despite the dipping temperatures she’s refusing to wear tights, instead she wears her cape like a dress with her favourite Christian Louboutin black suede ankle boots.

Instead of a Birkin, her chosen arm candy for the flight home was a Loewe Paloma 29 bag from the Resort 2009 collection.

The elegant navy calf bag has gold hardware of a simple hook and looks beautiful with its classic shape.

Curtis School Summer Fair, LA

Isn’t it too hot to be wearing head-to-toe leather in LA?

Not for Victoria Beckham it seems.

The mother of 3 was spotted out in LA wearing a Balmain Spring 2009 leather jacket, with Dsquared² Fall 2009 leather pants.

“Dare” Screening, East Hampton

Emmy Rossum is giving us so much variety on the red carpet lately, that it’s hard not to be impressed.

The brunette beauty looked gorgeous on the red carpet wearing a teal Lela Rose Spring 2009 fitted dress, with a ruffled detail on the shoulder.

Her look was paired with gold accessories including Christian Louboutin Fortuna platform sandals and a gold clutch.

The Art Of Elysium’s GENESIS Event, LA

Sophia Bush should really be the campaign girl for Max Azria as she is - along with Amanda Bynes - so loyal to the brand.

Just last week she wore a BCBG Max Azria gown, this weekend she wore a Max Azria lace mini dress and for this event she wore a black and white Herve Leger bandage dress from the Resort 2010 collection.

Burgundy suede Trib Two’s complete this stunning look.

19th Annual ‘Divas Simply Singing!’ AIDS Benefit Concert, LA


Actress Sheryl Lee Ralph paired purple strappy sandals with her purple Tadashi Shoji Fall 2009 satin draped dress.

The colour is exquisite.

Women Of The Year Lunch, London


I love Katherine Jenkins’ French Connection sequined dress.

It’s cute, young and fun plus it has shoulder pads, but the hair really lets her down.

It looks like she had an electric shock.

Like almost everyone else on this post she wore Trib Two’s.

10th Anniversary of Estee Lauder Raising Funds for Breast Cancer, New York


Last year Elizabeth Hurley seemed to have her sensitivity chip missing when she arrived at the Global Illumination Initiative to raise awareness for breast cancer in London wearing a breast enhancing Giambattista Valli dress.

For this Breast Cancer event she was dressed demurely wearing a pink sequined fitted Naeem Khan dress paired with nude heels.

The Surfrider Foundation’s 25th Anniversary Gala, LA


Audrina Patridge is the 4th person on this post to pair their look with YSL Trib Two’s proving that when it comes to walking the red carpet, these YSL Trib Two’s are still as popular as they were 2 seasons ago.

This is due to the fact that they are so comfortable to walk in.

The “actress” wore a sexy silver Obakki Spring 2010 strapless ruche bodice dress and carried a matching clutch.

When Victoria Beckham was recently in London checking out hot new London designers at the Fashion Fringe Spring 2010 show it looks like she was taking notes, as she walked the red carpet wearing a black strapless dress by young designer William Tempest last night.

If you’re thinking the name sounds familiar, it’s because Emma Watson introduced the world to William Tempest when she wore one of his dresses to the The Tale Of Despereaux LA premiere last year.

This red carpet event was to launch David Beckham’s new Adidas clothing line, Beckham by J. Bond Collection.

Victoria stood proudly by his side looking very chic in her LBD paired with purple - non-Trib Two - Brian Atwood heels.

Hair, make-up, everything works for me here. Love it.

Victoria Beckham put her best Gucci thigh-high boot forward at Bergdorf Goodman’s celebration of Fashion’s Night Out earlier this month.

The fashion designer wore a reptile print Giles Fall 2009 dress, a black head band and smoky eyes.

Some of you have said that when Sara Paxton wore the same dress to “The Beautiful Life” party, she didn’t know Victoria Beckham had worn the same dress 2 days earlier.

I would say that was impossible. Victoria’s picture was in every paper, website and blog the following day. There is no way Sara and her stylist didn’t know VB wore it.

Sara looks great in the dress, but nothing in the world will make me like those Alejandro Ingelmo woven slingbacks she’s wearing, they don’t seem to work with anything so Victoria wins this for me.
