That's quite an impressive balancing act: Victoria Beckham teeters on seven-inch heels for another shopping trip with baby Harper

Balancing act: Victoria Beckham cradles her nine-week-old daughter Harper Seven as she goes shopping at FAO Schwarz in New York City


With a precious cargo to carry and her recent back pain, you'd think Victoria Beckham would want to wear comfy flats for a shopping trip with baby Harper.

But after years in impractical footwear, Posh has perfected the art of walking in such high shoes and showed no fear when it came to carrying her daughter while wearing seven-inch heels.

The 37-year-old and her two-month-old daughter were spotted in matching pink outfits as they visited the FAO Schwarz toy shop in New York this afternoon.

Wrapping her adorable little girl in a blanket as she entered the store, Victoria looked suitably girlie in a pink dress from her spring/summer 2011 collection and nude Christian Louboutin Daffodil 160 platform pumps - which come with a six and a half inch heel.

The mother-of-four has been in Manhattan since last week when she presented her Spring/Summer 2012 collection at New York Fashion Week.

And she has stayed in town, checking out some of the shows and doing a spot of shopping before she returns to her three boys and husband David in Los Angeles.

And with Harper too little to appreciate most toys, no doubt Victoria was picking up some treats for her sons Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz in the famous Fifth Avenue toy store.

Victoria and Harper were also spotted visiting Prada earlier this week, and the ex-Spice Girl declared her daughter loved the store.

She enthused: 'We went in to Prada yesterday and she loved it. It was if she was saying, "Mummy I'm home!"'

The 37-year-old star also spoke about her love for her youngest child as she debuted her second clothing line Victoria By Victoria Beckham during fashion week.

She said: 'I can't leave her alone for a minute, I haven't been without her since she was born nine weeks ago, she's too wonderful to leave.'

Beckham's new line is more affordable than her Victoria Beckham Collection range, but the designer insisted it was just reflected another side of her style.

She said: 'This has been a real labour of love for me and we have been working on it for around a year.

'I wanted something that was a little bit more affordable but I did not want to compromise with design or quality.

'It's not a second line, or a diffusion line - it's another line, another side to my wardrobe. This is a way to give my customers what they want.'
