Candice Swanepoel and Bregje Heinen launch Body by Victoria in NYC

July 31, 2012 by Rosy 2 Comments

Candice Swanepoel and Bregje Heinen celebrated Victoria’s Secret newest “body” with the launch of the Body By Victoria collection, a collection of bra styles in smooth and the new lace as well as a new fragrance this morning. The bras are absolutely gorgeous and are the perfect way to update your fall bra wardrobe while incorporating fun new colors including hot tamale red, vivid yellow, pink peony as well as polka dot and floral prints.

Todays product launch at the VS store in SoHo heralds 19-year-old Bregje’s first public appearance as a VS model since we last saw her at the 2011 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. If she looks familiar, you might recognize her from the Maroon 5 music video for their latest single, “Payphone.”

That Adam Levine sure does like to feature hot models in his videos!

“It’s the essence of being a woman,” Dutch beauty Bregie said. “It’s my new signature scent.”

Here are some details on the Body by Victoria fragrance:

My girl Candice can’t go without a special mention! I’ve had the pleasure to interview her a couple of times and she is literally one of the sweetest people I have ever met. Not only is she stunning but she maintains a humble personality. Love her!

Prabal Gurung unleashes the darker side of Candice Swanepoel [video]

April 4, 2012 by Rosy Leave a Comment

For those of you used to seeing Victoria’s Secret supermodel Candice Swanepoel as the pretty, blond girl-next-door type, might be surprised by her latest advertising campaign with Prabal Gurung! The ads, which were released in late January, are now accompanied by the Spring 2012 Campaign video released yesterday which features rich colors and flower patterns that pulsate along with images of the 23-year-old South African beauty.

The main thing that hid the identity of Ms. Swanepoel so well was the fact that she is rockin’ jet black hair! And it’s not a wig either, various outlets confirmed that Candice indeed had it cut and colored for the shoot.

The video, directed by Daniel Jackson, is shown below.

Candice Swanepoel brings ‘Very Sexy’ to South Beach

March 2, 2012 by Rosy Leave a Comment

Victoria’s Secret Angels Candice Swanepoel, Adriana Lima, and Erin Heatherton brought sexy back to South Beach this week with the launch of the Very Sexy Jet Tour held at the Mondrian Hotel. All three arrived in similar toned dresses but they showed off their individuality with unique footwear!

Candice wore a nude pair of classic, Christian Louboutin heels while Adriana rocked a pair of purple Giuseppe Zanotti heels that I coveted from the moment I saw them.

But we weren’t there to talk about shoes, we were there to talk about the fabulous new additions to the Very Sexy Collection including the Deep-V Push-Up ($55 solid $58 print) bra and their newest scent, the Very Sexy Touch ($52 Eau de Parfum 2.5 oz).

I love it when Spring is around the corner and VS unveils their newest fragrance! I’ve gotten so many compliments since I started wearing the Very Sexy Touch around town.

Below is my interview with the beautiful Candice Swanepoel who talks about the collection and what she is most looking forward to in the spring. To see my interview with Brazilian beauty Adriana Lima, hop on over to Fox News Latino via this link.

The Very Sexy Tour continues in New York (March 13th), Chicago (March 15th) and Dallas (March 22nd). For more information follow VS via Facebook here.

Candice Swanepoel asks: What’s your fantasy?

July 20, 2011 by Rosy Leave a Comment

Just when you thought things couldn’t get any hotter in Los Angeles, supermodel Candice Swanepoel turned up the heat with her arrival in The Grove. The South African stunner launched the VS Fantasies collection at Victoria’s Secret on July 19th, 2011 and we were there for all the fun!

Looking sophisticated yet sexy in a flower pattern Balenciaga dress, Candice posed for photographers with the brands newest scent, Sheer Love. This spring/summer fragrance is comprised of notes of white cotton and pink lily which make it your perfect companion for the summertime.

Also making its debut is the Body by Victoria Demi Bra in a beautiful spring pattern of purple petals. It features the brands trademarked Memory Fit technology which conforms to your shape for incredible comfort.

I own at least 3 of the bras from this collection because it really provides great support for my girls! When you are a bustier gal, you really need a bra that is not only going to “have your back” throughout the day but also one that makes you feel feminine and pretty.

As I’m sure you can tell from the photos, Candice is an absolute beauty in real life. Her make-up was just light enough to sustain this terrible heat while giving her enough coverage for the entire press event.

I spoke to her make-up artist Jenna Anton to find out what products this Bombshell uses on a day-to-day basis. There are some pretty great products on this list including a personal fave, the Hypergloss Eye Shimmer in Golden Lights.

Others were:
VS Fantasies in Coconut Passion
Luminous Cheek & Face Highlighter in Showtime
VS Lip Gloss in Sublime
VS Silky Eye Shadow in Between the Sheets
VS Perfect Lipstick in Wish

Before Mario Lopez could interview her for a segment on Extra, I had a quick chat with Candice which you can check out below.
