More Spice Girls news! Some of the group’s most iconic costumes are going up on the auction block
All girls (and some boys) growing up in the ‘90s will unabashedly admit that back in the day, we lived and breathed the Spice Girls. We knew all their songs, we learned how to pull off a questionable but convincing British accent and we definitely coveted every single one of their outfits. So news that we might be able to get our hands on Scary’s original leopard-print catsuit or Sporty’s many tracksuits in a charity auction gala has us way too excited. Proceeds from the auctioned off items, which will be sold at a gala event later this year, will go to Save the Children and Children in Need.

A Spice Girls musical is coming! We take you back to their heyday with the 10 most fashionable Spice Girls moments
By Paige Dzenis and Randi Bergman
Today something magical happened: the Spice Girls reunited to announce plans for an upcoming musical and girls everywhere were instantly sent back in time to 1997. Sadly, Victoria Beckham, Melanie Brown, Emma Bunton, Melanie Chisholm and Geri Halliwell will not be performing on stage—the musical, called Viva Forever!, will take inspiration from their songs in a Mamma Mia-esque manner and explore the “bitter realities of fame” through the story of a girl on a reality TV contest. Despite claiming that it will not be a tribute show, we can pretty much guarantee than anyone who did a grade school lip synch to “Stop (Right Now)” will be buying tickets (and a flight to London) come December.
Oh, and if you were too excited to notice: the Spice Girls made the announcement on the steps where “Wannabe” was filmed. (!!!) There’s no halting this ’90s rabbit hole we’ve all fallen into, so let’s continue: here are our top 10 most fashionable Spice Girls moments.

Beauty trend: Flushed cheeks, glistening skin and hit-the-showers hair did laps on the Spring 2012 runways. We take a closer look at athletic-inspired beauty
Drenched hair and skin, cheeks flushed from exertion—with clear eyes and full hearts, Kari Molvar contends this season’s beauty can’t lose.
Gearing up for fashion week is always a sport in itself, but this season designers and backstage beauty pros went for a literal interpretation. With slicked-back hair and rosy cheeks flushed as if they’d just come in from a run, models strode athletically down the runways in mesh tracksuits, neoprene zip-ups and jerseys ticked with racing stripes. But even if you’re not in training mode, the look is just as chic. With that in mind, we asked the elite hair and makeup pros to give us a few pointers on pulling off the trend.

Quotable: Does Victoria Beckham wear heels while driving?
More details on that Range Rover that Victoria Beckham helped design surfaced today in Vanity Fair’s hilarious “Stars and Cars” interview with the icon herself. Amidst the little anecdotes that she shares about the car, it’s inspiration, and the first one she ever owned, Beckham talks driving flats and whether she, indeed, does wear them at all:

Are You a Fashion Hoarder?
Crammed into stylist Roslyn Griffith Hall’s downtown Toronto home are vintage bust forms, antique leather shoes, tarnished metal spoons and keys, animal skulls and bones, ceiling-high stacks of Rubbermaid tubs filled with fabric swatches, and racks upon racks of clothes and shoes. “A lot of it is stuff I’ve gathered over the years for shoots, to make into art or to use for my jewellery collection [Fitz & Fur],” she says. “I love rust, so I have all these rusty old horseshoes, pulleys and weights. And then I have all these boxes and trunks, like this old Indian one, and inside each one, there’s more stuff. Surprise! It’s like those Russian nesting dolls.”

Quotable: Victoria Beckham’s childhood memories of riding in Rolls-Royces inspired the design of her Range Rover
This weekend in Beijing, Victoria Beckham revealed a very luxurious Range Rover that she helped design. While some of its features seem standard for a $128,000 vehicle—rose gold accents on the grill and a hand-finished matte paint job, no big deal—other elements were chosen because of a personal connection. The mohair floor mats, for instance, were inspired by Beckham’s childhood memories of sitting barefoot in her father’s Rolls-Royce. And, like any good designer, she made sure to check out a whole suite of high-end toys before getting started:

Quotable: Guess who thinks she’s every woman? (Hint: it’s not Chaka Khan)
In today’s edition of “what planet does Victoria Beckham live on?” the designer dishes to Harper’s Bazaar that her size 6 frame (which translates into an American size 2) represents the average woman. It gets better: Beckham’s design process includes using her own body as a stand-in for a dressform, in order to see how her creations will look on “anyone who isn’t a model.”

They said/We said: Victoria Beckham’s newly released cat-inspired diffusion line has already sold out in London
Victoria Beckham’s newest line with the very James Bond-esque name, Victoria, Victoria Beckham has caused a major fashion ruckus, selling out of Harvey Nichols on its first day in stores.
Inspired by cartoon character Emily the Strange, the line is decidedly mod with ‘60s shifts and Mondrian-worthy colour blocking. The “affordable” collection starts at £395 (which according to our rough calculations is upwards of $600). That’s Carven worthy, people! Yet somehow the steep pricing hasn’t deterred the masses, as there are already waitlists for three dresses, priced at almost $1,000. Canadians have no fear though, the collection is going to be available at Holt Renfrew very soon, and there’s no wait list to report as of today!
