Curating a killer slew of holiday outfits is always our most taxing summer fashion conundrum, and yet, Nicola Peltz appears to get it right every time.

Granted, we doubt the actress is bound to the same paltry baggage allowance, but she still consistently serves on vacay, and that is reason enough for us to sit up and pay attention.

The style felt richly reminiscent of those worn by Victoria and her bandmates in their musical heyday, serving to elongate the leg and provide the wearer with a certain commanding stature.

While Nicola was only born in 1995, the year after the iconic girl band formed, it seems she is making up for lost time by infusing her holiday look with a hint of Spice Girl magic.

The actress is known for her love of platforms, from Versace's Aevitas design worn on her wedding day to high octane 1970s-inspired boots rocked on date night. 

But we can't help but applaud her commitment to the vertiginous cause, repping larger-than-life soles while off-duty…
