A Few Goody Gumdrops previews photos and excerpts from Glamour’s latest interview with guest editor, Victoria Beckham. In the September 2012 cover interview, Victoria discusses with Glamour her work, her marriage, how she changed her life, why she never smiles and why she may have another baby. We have some great photos to share! We also want to thank Glamour for sharing this sneak peek with us.
Here’s what Victoria shared with Glamour Magazine:
Victoria Beckham on guest editing the September issue of Glamour:
“It’s been exciting for me to see my ideas come to life, from type colors to photo selection to casting. I even made my own list of Glamour fashion Don’ts to keep out of the issue: boat shoes (unless of course you’re designer Alber Elbaz or on a boat!), Bermuda shorts, nose rings, Crocs, and American tan tights (that’s nude pantyhose to you).”
Victoria Beckham on why she is never seen smiling…
“Do you know, I don’t know?! I actually used to smile a lot in pictures. I think I only stopped smiling when I got into fashion. [Laughs.] Fashion stole my smile! I’ve created this person. And I’m not saying that’s not me, but I wouldn’t say that’s the whole me…. It’s an armor that goes up.”
Victoria Beckham on reading 50 Shades of Grey…
“I’m halfway through the second one. I even bought my mum the book! But every time she tries to engage in conversation about it, I kind of dodge the subject. I don’t really want to talk to my mother about S&M.”
Victoria Beckham on her husband, David Beckham, coming to see her fashion show in New York this past season…
“It was the first time! He’s always been working or training. But I was nervous about this show. I was feeling a lot of pressure. He phoned me the night before, and I just said, ‘I want you to come be with me. I want a cuddle. I really do.’ And it was great to have him there. I think he was surprised; I don’t usually bother him with much detail. And then you get there, and the models, the hair, the makeup…I think he was blown away!”
Victoria Beckham on where she sees herself and her family in five years…
“I’d like everybody to be healthy and happy. I’d like to be growing the business at a steady pace, and to be making more women feel empowered, beautiful, and confident. And I’d never say never about another baby. It’s a juggling act—a career, family, a husband who’s busy. But I’d never say never!”
