While Victoria Beckham seemed to be taking a leaf out of Kate Moss' style guide on the Riviera this week, back in London the original superwaif was revisiting a favourite retro look of her own.

The footie ace's wife was spotted wearing a pair of denim micro shorts and knee-high leather boots as she enjoyed a day out in St Tropez and aboard a yacht with the couple's sons Brooklyn and Romeo. It was a trendy teaming which exactly echoed Kate's choice of outfit for a date with on/off lover Pete Doherty last week.

Back home in the British capital, meanwhile, Kate was already ringing the changes, returning to a 1950s-style polka-dot sundress which has seen a couple of outings this summer.

Both mums – Victoria has three boys, Kate has a two-year-old daughter called Lila Grace – were obviously keen to take advantage of the warmer weather to show off their enviably long legs and slender physiques.

Victoria chose the micro shorts and cowboy boots ensemble for a trip to a St Tropez market followed by a jaunt out into the harbour

Meanwhile back in London, Kate, who wore her own version of the outfit a few days earlier, was going retro in a polka dot sundress
