Many women have a love-hate relationship with heels. On the one hand, they can feel incredibly empowering. On the other, putting all your weight on the balls of your feet gets tiring, no matter how much of a boss you are.

Fashion designer and former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham, once known for her short skirts and towering stilettos, has declared war on heels. Though she once said, "I just can't concentrate in flats," she's changed her tune — abandoning her love of heels for a newfound desire for comfort. 

That's right, Posh Spice "just can't do heels anymore."

The 41-year-old has seen a major style transformation in recent years. Her wardrobe has become increasingly "simple and comfortable," as she's traded her classic LBDs for cozy sweaters. Don't get us wrong, she still looks as good as ever.

“I think people saw the real me when I came out [at the end of her show in New York] in a pair of men’s trousers, a roll-neck and trainers," she told The Telegraph.

This sense of style is reiterated in her collections. She's focused her energy on "making getting dressed easy," without sacrificing the aesthetic appeal of the clothing. The result is a line of looser silhouettes that combine practicality with visual interest: ruffled sweaters and cropped pants.

Though some may be sad to see Beckham's signature style go, fans can all agree on one thing: Whether she's Posh Spice or Working Mama Spice, Beckham is still an incredibly fashionable HBIC. She's just doing her thing in flats now.
