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.
