What’s on your summer wardrobe wishlist? Perhaps a Totême one-piece or a Tove dress in a cheerful shade of lilac? Victoria Beckham is taking a rather unexpected approach to her holiday packing this year, as seen in her recent tongue-in-cheek Instagram post. The Spice Girl-turned-designer was pictured by an empty swimming pool wearing a full look from her Spring 2023 collection, complete with sky-high stiletto boots and a sweeping train.

VB is always her own best brand ambassador, and her poolside shoot may be the latest example of her unique promotional skills. Don’t be surprised if you see her strolling around Saint-Tropez in heels come July. Last year, she packed some killer accessories for the Beckham family’s Mediterranean vacation on board yacht The Madsummer, including Bottega Veneta’s Chain Pouch.

Peep-toe boots have been a staple of Beckham’s collections for years, and they were a key shoe trend this season. Red was also a popular hue on the Spring 2023 runways, and has been spotted on celebrities like Rihanna, Taylor Russell and Tessa Thompson recently.

Peep-toe boots as resort wear may not be as practical as pool slides, but they’re sure to turn heads at the breakfast buffet.
It’s official: Peep-toe boots have become the summer staple among fashion-savvy celebrity moms. Victoria Beckham was the latest to join the trend as she stepped out in Los Angeles with her kids and husband, David, wearing a pair of black peep-toe ankle boots.

The former Spice Girl paired her chic footwear with an otherwise all-white outfit, including shorts, an off-the-shoulder top and a wide-brimmed hat. The all-white look was finished with a neat pair of sunglasses and a tiny handbag.

Beckham’s choice in footwear may seem unusual for a day at the pool, but her stylish ankle boots kept her feet dry and were actually quite practical. It’s also worth noting that the sporty peep-toe style was an appropriate companion for the other items in her look, which succeeded in making the overall ensemble look polished and put-together.

Peep-toe ankle boots have been making a comeback among celebs, likely as a stylish way to juxtapose the traditional bulky winter footwear with the more laid-back vibe of summer. Victoria Beckham is the latest to join the trend and she has certainly pulled it off. We can expect to see more of this footwear style as the summer months go by.
