Posh and Becks: America's Latest Fashion Duo?

Will style-savvy Brits David and Victoria Beckham start fashion trends in the States?

The British are coming! The British are coming! That's DAVID and VICTORIA BECKHAM (aka "Posh Spice"), to be exact.




to the States, after David signed with the Los Angeles Galaxy soccer team (for which he is being paid a cool $250 million) -- but the infamous Brits are also bringing their equally infamous fashion sense across the pond as well.




The duo have long made headlines on their native shores for their star style -- David's "faux-hawk" made waves in the UK, long before the celeb hairstyles of ANGELINA JOLIE's son, MADDOX, and even current "American Idol" contender SANJAYA MALAKAR.



And Mr. Beckham's keen sartorial sense has frequently been chronicled in the Brit rags. As a fashion icon, he has graced the pages of such mags as GQ, where he seems to epitomize and embrace the "metrosexual" aesthetic -- that of the masculine celeb taking part in what have classically been deemed as "feminine" concerns with style and fashion.



Of course, Victoria is no stranger to fashion herself. The former SPICE GIRL has her own fashion line, and she was frequently spotted with pal KATIE HOLMES while in France for Fashion Week. She made waves with her fashion sense at TOM and Katie's lavish wedding festivities in Italy last November, donning fab and funky couture outfits that caused a media frenzy with the paparazzi.



"Posh" has also published a book in the UK which details her love of all things fashion, titled, That Extra Half an Inch: Hair, Heels and Everything In Between.But will the fabulously fashionable duo stir up fashion trends in the American celeb scene? That remains to be seen.
