Victoria Beckham buys her clothes from flea markets

Victoria Beckham buys her clothes from flea markets.

The former Spice Girl – who is renowned as a style icon – can't resist buying second hand clothes, and admits her own designs are often inspired by her finds.

Victoria – who lives in Los Angeles with her soccer star husband David and their three sons - revealed: "I don't really go shopping any more – apart from the flea market I go to every Sunday. You can get some amazing vintage stuff there. "That's often where I get inspiration for my designs."

The 34-year-old – who has often been criticised for her super-slim physique - has also revealed she has now started eating and exercising more.

She said in an interview with Britain's The Sun newspaper: "I think you do eat more when you're working out. And you want to eat healthily so it's good all round. I run four miles, seven days a week. I feel energised and healthy – there are really nice gyms in Los Angeles and I really just really enjoy it."

Although she initially took jibes from her detractors quite badly, Victoria has now learned to deal with negative comments and is "proud" of what she has achieved in her life.

She added: "I don't really give a s**t what people think of me. I'm more grown up now and I've learned not to care so much what people say."
