Victoria Beckham has been recognized as a style icon for a long time already but the news she has the same reputation with women over 50 is surprising considering the fact she is only 37 years old herself.

Victoria Beckham (KNOW ALL ABOUT VICTORIA BECKHAM)was included into the list of top 10 style influencers for ladies over 50 along with older women like Helen Mirren (she is one the first place), Twiggy, and Elle Mcpherson.

A spokeswoman for clothing brand CC, who organized the poll (in Britain), commented:

Victoria Beckham has proven she carries universal appeal and her image over the past few years has altered from high glamour to a more classic look which appeals to women of all ages. The results show women in their fifties aren’t afraid to embrace younger styles when they’re done the right way.”

In the top 20 there are such big names as Kylie Minogue, Demi Moore, Kate Moss, and Elizabeth Hurley.

Either way, figures released are shocking. While in some parts of Britain temperatures fall down to -27C, department store Debenhams has seen bikini sales increase by 20%.

Designer Elizabeth Hurley, who’s recently launched her first ever swimwear range also discovered a boost in sales.

She tweeted:

Interestingly, bikini sales are UP! Girls must be fleeing to sunnier climes for the holidays.”

Carie Barkhuizen, spokesperson for Debenhams commented:

With temperatures feeling colder than Antarctica the last thing you would think people would be buying was swimwear. The figures are even more remarkable when you consider the huge increase we saw at this time last year when the weather was also bad.”

British actress and model, 43, says that countryside is simply far ’sexier’ than London.

When I close my eyes and think of England, I’m not in a fancy restaurant in Knightsbridge, but am instead lolling, scantily clad, in front of a roaring fire, surrounded by four Labradors and Rupert Campbell-Black,’

I wouldn’t mind betting that there’s less sex in the city than there is in the country because it’s just well, sexier here.’

To me people look sexier in the country,’ she said.

She also has home in London but now she lives almost full-time on the ?2.7million Gloucestershire estate she bought in 2003.

Her family is not big( husband Arun Nayar, son Damian), but she has a lot of animals: four Labradors, two cats, three geese, eight chickens, 49 cows, 63 sheep and 82 pigs.

About country interior design:

Next time you go to someone’s house in the country, be sure to check out if they have warm, possibly fluffy, rugs in front of their fire,’

No prizes for guessing why they’re there.’

Later she adds:

I can also shyly confess to having two sheepskin rugs in front of all my fireplaces.’

Neckline is an important thing to consider when trying to look your best on a date, at the office, or just walking your cute dog in the park.

Salma Hayek empire neckline

Fortunately for all of us, there’re some simple rules we can follow when choosing flattering necklines. There’re just three main factors you should keep in mind: face shape, body type, and bust size.

What is important about choosing a flattering neckline is the concept of balance. When looking in the mirror you must see that everything is in proportion. Balance your features, that matters.

Face shape

The shape of your face is the first consideration for determining your ideal neckline.

• If you have an oval and well proportioned face almost any neckline style is flattering to you.

Amanda Peet oval face

• If you have a long and narrow face try to choose wider and shallower neckline styles. This way you’ll be able to make your face appear wider thanks to drawing a horizontal line by the neckline.

Liv Tyler V-neckline style

• On the contrary, if your face is wider and rounder pick a neckline with a stronger vertical shape to balance the look.

Kelly Osbourne round face

Body Type:

• Average build women should face no problems while choosing any necklines they find appropriate.

• Large-framed women should look for necklines stressing a more vertical line. Think V-necks, scoop necks, sweetheart necklines (resembling the bottom of the stylized heart graphic), empire necklines (which is square with horizontal coverage of the breasts).

Oprah Winfrey portrait neckline style

• Small-framed women should look for necklines offering a widening effect. You may consider the following neckline styles:

1. Sabrina, an open neckline that gently curves from shoulder to shoulder, resting on the tops of the shoulder and is perfect for camouflaging too-much or non-existent cleavage.

2. Boat neck that closely follows the collarbone. It helps to balance the upper and lower halves of the body.

3. Crew Neck that fits loosely along the base of the neckline and is collarless.

Eva Longoria crew neck

4. V-Neck.

5. Jewel neckline that is a high, close neckline style that closely encircled the base of the neck and covers the tops of the torso to the shoulders. The look is almost always sleeveless, making you look sleek.

Bust Size:

• Women with moderately-sized breasts and average shoulder width should be comfortable with any neckline style.

Jennifer Lopez moderately sized breasts

• A woman who has a small bust and narrow shoulders should consider styles like the boat neck, Sabrina, sweetheart and Queen Anne, a diamond shape opening neckline that makes the upper torso appear larger and wider.

• Big-busted and broad-shouldered women should choose styles like the empire, Queen Anne, scoop neck, V-neck, and cowl neck, featuring a collar of folded fabric, but it’s wider and looser rather than close-fitted.

Liz Hurley V neck

Now you know some main tips and there’s only one thing left to decide – it’s up to you whether you want to show it all, or hide you neck, your shoulders, and your cleavage. Just keep two main things in mind – balance and style, and you’ll find yourself making right decisions!

The fragrance’s aim is to embody every woman and the ad campaign sets out to represent a diversity of ages with a 21-year-age gap between the oldest and younger model.

Four glamorous ladies, Gwyneth Paltrow, Carolyn Murph, Liz Hurley, Hilary Rhoda got together to launch Estee Lauder’s newest fragrance, Sensuous 59th Street Bloomingdale’s in New York City on Tuesday, July 8th.

The four beautiful woman of the different scents of the cosmetic brand signed perfume bottles for the customers.

Hilary Rhoda, Hurley and Murphy added some glam quotient by ringing the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange.

Aerin Lauder says:

Each model represents a different side of sensuality. Hilary conveys youth, while Carolyn’s classic look communicates elegance. As an actress, Gwyneth brings an emotional range to sensuality and Elizabeth portrays confidence and wisdom.”

Security allowed only the first 200 people in line to meet the women and get their light-pink bottles signed. According to the staff of spritzer girls, the first folks to line up were a mom and daughter from Britain who wanted to scoop up the fragrance now, since it’s exclusive to the U.S. for three months.

See below for a shoot three of the four models did for a Harpers Bazaar editorial shoot. A bonus for Lauder for advertising in the magazine perhaps?
