Victoria Beckham and Marc Jacobs pose together on the way inside to the British Fashion Awards at the Savoy Hotel in London on Monday, November 28th.

Beckham, 37, opted for an elegant long black sleeveless gown with pleated skirt and a draped halter neckline from her own line, Victoria Beckham RTW Fall 2011.

The designer pulled her hair back and chose a smoky eye with pale lip color for a sophisticated look.

Beckham was presented with the Brand of the Year Award by her pal and fellow fashion designer Jacobs.

Accepting the accolade, Beckham teared up and thanked her husband, soccer pro David Beckham, and her family for their support.

“I’m so sorry for crying. I’m being so rubbish,” she told the audience. “I would like to thank the British fashion industry for your support. I’d like to thank my team, you all know who you are, your focus, your creativity, I couldn’t do it without you.”

“My parents, my kids, and my husband. Without David [Beckham] I wouldn’t have had the courage to do what I am doing.”

Beckham later told the press she was “trying to keep it together” but the emotion of the night overwhelmed her.

Their household will have a few more girly things now as Victoria and David Beckham welcomed their first daughter into their lives.

Victoria, 37, delivered a baby girl by Caesarian section this morning. The little girl weighed 7 lbs, 10 oz and their spokesperson said the duo was thrilled.

“David and Victoria Beckham are delighted to announce the birth of their daughter. Happy and healthy she arrived at 7:55 am this morning at Cedars Sinai hospital in Los Angeles. Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz are excited to welcome their new baby sister to the family.”

The Beckhams have not released her name and a friend has told reporters that they have not decided on one yet.

“There is no name as yet. They are going to spend a little time getting to know her before choosing the name,” the source said.

Earlier this week, proud husband and father David, 36, took a beautiful black and white photo of a still-pregnant Victoria lying outside enjoying the sun.

Eva Longoria was rumored to be a possible godmother, however Victoria’s rep said at that time, no one had been asked.

Now we wait to find out the baby’s name.

Victoria Beckham is due to have her baby girl any day now, and if you didn’t know by the calendar, you’d certainly know by her growing baby bump.  Now, thanks to her hubby David Beckham, we know just how big that belly – usually artfully disguised under gorgeous designer maternity clothes – really is.    (Not that big, really, considering she’s 8.9999 months pregnant.)  David posted this picture on his Facebook page with the following caption:

Took this pic of Victoria while she wasn’t looking. She looks amazing, so close now to the baby being born!

I agree that Victoria looks amazing.  I also find it amazing that she looks that artful and amazing just hanging around at home.  All snark aside, it’s a gorgeous photo.   I can’t wait to see photos of little Miss Beckham when she’s born!
