What's happened here then? Victoria Beckham committed one of our pet hate fashion crimes yesterday (and that's not something that occurs very often, if ever, from la Posh) when she was snapped out in New York yesterday, with baby Harper, but without any feet.

The yummy mummy slipped her slender pins into a pair of over-long flared jeans - which may or may not have been from her own denim range - that completely covered her heels to touch the floor as she walked.

Did she not learn from Cheryl Cole's purple flared fashion fail? Or perhaps she was embarrassed to be wearing unflattering footwear? We suspect it's all just a cunning plan to make her long legs look even longer. But we just want to take her to a tailor.

(FYI - we suppose we shouldn't be surprised that VB's BFF Eva Longoria is also a fan of the floor-sweeping trouser trend.)

Also, we're sincerely hoping that that furry cover-up is of the faux variety, for her sake.

All in all, not Victoria's finest fashion hour. Harper on the other hand, looks just lovely.

Harper, 1. Mum, 0.

Style Evolution: Victoria Beckham

19 June 1996
 20-year-old Victoria Adams burst onto the music scene with her fellow Spice Girls. The Posh look involved a pout and a mid-length bob. We will gloss over the orange skirt and the belly chain.
10 May 1997
 There were also numerous very short skirts and a penchant for pointing.
31 Oct 1997
 The gold powersuit with visible gold bra makes a bold statement although she's competing against the similarly striking styles of her fellow Spices. The overlong sleeves could do with the attentions of a tailor, though.
25 January 1998
 Victoria and a remarkably floppy-haired David Beckham announce their engagement. Victoria opts for her signature high heels despite the gravel.
25 October 1999
 Ultra-tight red leather and a brand new haircut. Victoria Beckham hadn't quite cemented her 'Style Icon' status.

 Firming up her place in the fashion set Victoria wears Dolce and Gabbana to party with Naomi Campbell at the Costume Institute Benefit Dance.
31 May 2003
 Victoria must have been fond of her previous Dolce and Gabbana dress as she wore a similar style gown by the designers to the 2003 MTV Movie Awards.  The less said about the couple's penchant for matching outfits the better.
