    The designer showed off her new hair cut in Los Angeles over the weekend

    Victoria Beckham has taken the plunge and chopped off her long, brunette locks.

    The singer-turned-designer debuted her new look while out shopping in West Hollywood over the weekend.

    Sporting a noticeably shorter 'do, Mrs Beckham headed out to Melrose Boulevard to indulge in one of her favourite activities - retail therapy.

    Earlier in the day, the 37-year-old demonstrated just how much hair she's had cut off by posting a pic of her lobbed off tresses on Twitter.

    To which, celebrity hairdresser, friend of Eva Longoria's and the chap responsible for her new look, Ken Paves, replied: 'Oh yes we did! That's sure is a lot of hair on the floor!'

    We love it, VB!

    According to sources, the couple are having their Hertfordshire mansion, believed to be worth around £18million, valued by estate agents, meaning that their move to Los Angeles is definitely a permanent one.

    When the designer is in London she prefers to stay at the Savoy Hotel and the 22-acre property sits empty and has been for years.

    As well as getting rid of their UK home, David and Victoria are also thought to be selling their £2.5 million French house, too.
