It Never Crossed My Mind to Wear This Color Combo Until Victoria Beckham Tried It

If you follow the rules of color theory, then green and red aren't exactly a winning combination. But, if you subscribe to Posh Spice style, then you're comfortable throwing those rules out of the window and going with whatever makes you feel your best.

Recently, Victoria Beckham was spotted in New York City wearing an unexpectedly posh color combo. Her avocado green dress was paired with cherry red ankle strap pumps, creating an eye-catching look from head to toe. The designer and forever style star has stuck to a rather demure color palate since her singing days, so this outfit was an exciting step in a different direction. Perhaps it will be reflected next season in her eponymous fashion line? Or maybe she's having fun stepping out of her comfort zone
