Victoria Beckham has written an open letter to her teenage self instructing her to be stronger and more confident.
In the note for Vogue, the former Spice Girl looks back on her life before fame and then as a rising pop star, giving herself advice on what steps to take.
Part of the letter sees the fashion designer tell herself to admire and take care of her looks more, adding that she should not have had a boob job, something she repeatedly denied getting in the past.
Victoria wrote: “Learn to embrace your imperfections. That is what I want to tell you. Let your skin breathe - wear less make-up (and don’t ever let that make-up artist shave your eyebrows! The effects will last forever).
“And I should probably say, don’t mess with your boobs. All those years I denied it - stupid. A sign of insecurity. Just celebrate what you’ve got.”
She added: “No torpedo bazookas, either. Gone.”
The former singer only addressed any surgical procedures she’d had three years after getting them when she was shown some before and after pictures by Allure magazine.
Still not willing to confront the issue in detail, she shyly confessed: “I don’t have them any more. I think I may have purchased them.”
The artist formerly known as Posh Spice also addressed her days in a pop band, telling her younger self that the time would transform the life she knew.
On the open auditions for the band, she wrote: “The judges of the competition will match you to four other girls, all misfits in their own ways. Together you will make it OK to look different, And, as the Spice Girls, you will sell 75 million records.
“You cannot possibly imagine your future life right now. You will travel on private planes, visit incredible countries, stay in fantastic hotels… You will meet Nelson Mandela, Mariah Carey and Elton John…
“If you don’t join the Spice Girls, you might always be that insecure person in that little shell, and you will never become who you truly are.”
And she even laughed at the outfit choices she made while admitting her experimentation would lead to a successful clothing brand, writing: “You are going to have so much fun with your clothes - PVC catsuits; chokers that say absurd things; weird spiky blonde hair. It will never occur to you that you appear ridiculous.
“You will turn up at award ceremonies resembling a drag queen. But I look back at you and smile. It will add interest to your life to go from one extreme to another. I love the fact that you will feel free to express yourself. Fashion will take on added stature one day, but try not to be stifled by it.
“You will learn, as you mature, to swap heels for Stan Smith trainers, minidresses for crisp white shirts. And you will never be one of those people who just roll out of bed. Wear sunglasses a lot. Even inside. Especially at airports. They turn a nothing-outfit into something quite pulled together and quite cool.
“You are going to really like Aviators. (Then one day you will develop your own!).”
