From Britney's comeback coiff to Drew's blonde ambition, 2008 has been full of celebrity hair transformations. But what marks this year for me is the number of stars that chose to cut it all off. Hayden Panettiere, Liv Tyler, Heidi Klum, Reese Witherspoon... You name it, they cropped it.

Some of the most notable new looks from this year include Gwyneth Paltrow's dramatic 'do, Posh's pixie, Anne Hathaway's mid-length cut, Hilary Swank's androgynous style, and Eva Longoria Parker's classic bob. Each was quite a departure, but turned out to be a risk that continues to pay-off big.

Fashion Week never fails to surprise, but this year is promising to be extraordinarily eventful. None other than Posh Spice was spotted at Marc Jacobs' Spring '09 show on Monday night with a fierce new look.

She's
known to be adventurous with her hair, but this cut leaves no room for
adjustment. Mrs. Beckham gambled big, and I think it paid off. And, of
course, she still manages to look diva-esque, despite her cropped cut.

My only critique would be that she looks even skinnier (if that's possible) with this hairstyle. But that's nothing a few trips to In-N-Out can't fix.

What do you think of Victoria Beckham's dramatic new do, love it or hate it?

UPDATE: It appears that the man behind this look was renowned celebrity stylist Garren, who also styled Audrey Hepburn and gave Linda Evangelista her signature boy-cut... Leave it to Queen B to choose only the best.
