Victoria Beckham: Loving our new house

She posts her first blog entry since moving to LA

Victoria Beckham is loving her life in LA

In her first blog update since becoming a resident of Los Angeles less than a month ago, Victoria Beckham has already started to talk like a Valley Girl.

"Hi everybody. Hope you are all well," she writes on her Web site. "Well we have finally unpacked our boxes and I am loving our new house – it is totally major!"

Beckham, 33, her soccer star husband David Beckham, 32, and their three sons opened the door to their $22 million Beverly Hills home on July 13 and, although she blogged upon their arrival, she hasn't bothered to file a message in the ensuing four weeks.

Filling her days? For one thing, it seems like interior decor has been a top priority for the English émigrés.

"Just adding some of the finishing touches to it actually and then it really will feel like home," she says of their six-bedroom home. "On top of that the weather here has been amazing too so we are all a happy bunch."

Showing that kids can display the same demanding nature on both sides of the Atlantic, Beckham explains that Brooklyn, 8, Romeo, 4, and 2-year-old Cruz are already eager consumers.

"The boys are really looking forward to starting their new school so we've got to make sure they are all kitted out with new schoolbags and pencil cases," she says. "You remember what it's like going back to school, you've got to have a new EVERYTHING!"

Still, while her husband cautiously takes to the field because of a lingering ankle injury, the lady of the house has been checking out the California high life.

"I have been busy having a good look around LA, checking out the restaurants and the beauty parlours," she says. "Well you never know when you might need a facial!"

Aside from easing into their new environment, the Beckhams, who have been playing hosts to extended family from England, have been social-networking for their business ventures, too.

"David and myself attended a launch last week in Bel Air (very swish)" – translation: posh – "for the launch of our latest fragrance Intimately Beckham, we met lots of people there and I thought it went really well," she writes.

"I'm also just starting work on my new dVb denim collection – I'm really excited about starting the next project – it's going to be totally major so keep your eyes open for that."
