Beckham`s posh USD 1.6 million Christmas

London: Former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham showed off her posh credentials on a recent shopping trip she came close to spending a whopping USD 1.6 million on designer goods.

The singer-turned-designer visited Milan, Italy over the Christmas period and headed straight for the stores to splash out on gifts for herself and husband David, a news website reported. Among the items bought were a USD 640,000 Rolex watch for the soccer ace and four sofas for their home worth USD 64,000. "I did spend too much. Shopping is like a drug. The more you have the more you want. I would move in to the (shopping street) Via Montenapoleone if I could because when I am in Milan, I don`t know how to walk past it," Beckham said. "It`s as if all of those wonderful shops are calling out to me, saying, `Come and buy me! Come and buy me!`," she added. PTI
