Couple's With Matching Fashion Styles: David and Victoria Beckham, Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale

I saw this photo and I was really entertained by the fashion styles of this two couples. Victoria Beckham and Gwen Stefan posed with their husbands at a party in London. As you can notice, David Beckham and Gavin Rossdale mirrored the fashion style of their wives. David and Victoria opted a sharp and sleek look in a slim grey suit and little black dress. On the other hand, Stefani and Gavin preferred a laid-back fashion style by wearing oversize checkered wrap and casual khaki jacket and plaid scarf.

What can you say about these couple's fashion styles?

Final line up of girls (and shoes!)

Elite would like to thank the fabulous BooHoo.com for all the gorgeous shoes we used during the T4 Stars of 2009 model competition. Not only did they look amazing but they were also surprisingly easy to walk in given the stiletto heel (yes we did try them all on....). We personally think that they outshone the celebs designer pairs onstage and if you’re not already logging on to www.boohoo.com we suggest you do so now!
