“I was young and shy, and being Posh helped me find my style and confidence, and my voice."
Victoria Beckham has revealed she is releasing a line of Spice Girls-inspired lipsticks.
The fashion designer and beauty brand owner revealed the news on Instagram, where she opened up about her feelings about her 'Posh' nickname.
“I was given the name Posh in 1996 over lunch with Peter Loraine of
Top of The Pops Magazine and the rest of the Spice Girls. I can’t say it would’ve been my first choice, but I ultimately grew into it on my own terms," she wrote on the Victoria Beckham Beauty's Instagram
page.
“I was young and shy, and being Posh helped me find my style and confidence, and my voice. After the Spice Girls, I distanced myself from the nickname because it had unwavering momentum of its own. Posh forever changed the course of my life, opening the door for me to go after my dreams."
Posh Lipstick, she added, was a "deeply personal" addition to her beauty brand.
There are nine different shades -- ranging from 90s neutrals to vibrant red. And Victoria shared that each of the shades is inspired "by a specific memory".
"Lipstick has always given me confidence when I need it and extra spice when I already had it," she continued.
"Each shade is inspired by a specific memory, and whilst the moments may have been my own, the energy and emotional is shared by us all."
She ended the note by telling her followers that it was an "ode to our lifelong journeys of self discovery as women," before adding: "Posh is back."
Posh Lipstick launches today [October 3]. You can find out more information
