    Blake Lively and Victoria Beckham play fashion face-off in matching Posh frocks

    It's a case of the master Vs. the muse in today's who wore it best: Victoria Beckham and Blake Lively might have both worn the same dress from Mrs B's eponymous collection, but does the designer have the edge over the actress rumoured to be her label's new face?

    Unusually for Posh, she wasn't the first to be spotted out-and-about in a style from her collection, but that accolade went to the lovely Ms Lively. Rumoured to be starring in the next ad campaign for the label, she has donned an array of VB dresses, and chose this thigh-skimming number back in October for a New York benefit. 

    Showing off those picture perfect pins, the Gossip Girl teamed her mini with towering purple platforms, and kept the rest of her look simple, adding cluster earrings, a raspberry pout and a chic chignon.

    For la Beckham, out and about last night in Paris, she teetered on signature vertiginous courts, and added edge with smoky cat's eyes and a striking slicked-back high twisted bun.
