Victoria Beckham just taught us how to wear above-the-knee shorts in your 50s
We all know that the mighty Victoria Beckham is a pioneer when it comes to pulling off major fashion trends.
The wife of David Beckham has never been a 'faddy' dresser though; classic is her middle name and she stays away from trending pieces that will be in the bin a few months from now.

The CEO of Victoria Beckham Beauty defined her waist with a fabulous terracotta belt. She added the key item that we should all have in our wardrobes, an ultra-preppy, light blue Oxford long-sleeved shirt, which was oversized and tucked into her waistband. Such a sleek holiday look!

Victoria is a big fan of the short skirt, styling it up elegantly. By donning the style, she cleverly elongates the leg, and often teams it with a tailored blazer, which can make an ensemble look timeless in seconds. The fashionista often opts for skirts in black, a universally flattering shade known to have slimming properties.
