November 2, 201114 yr What is the best part about being a Victoria Secret Angel?Defiantly being able to test all the fragrances and all lingerie. Having that at my fingertips and traveling to all of the amazing places we go. I never would have done that had I stayed in South Africa or done any other job. Especially all the beaches we go to. That’s my favorite part as well as being part of something so iconic. When I think about all of the women who have come before me, like Heidi Klum, its kind of surreal.What’s your favorite place to travel to during shoots?Brazil. We went to Necker Island and I was just in Bora Bora, which was amazing.Is there a scent in the newest Victoria Secret collection that most stands out to you?The one that we just launched (Angel Fragrance) is going to be my new fragrance for the holiday. It’s spicy and different.Do you have a favorite piece in the collection?The whole Dream Angels collection is my favorite. I like that its sexy but its still elegant at the same time. All the different colors for the holidays, like the deep purples and turquoise.micahjesse.comA Moment With...Candice SwanepoelWe caught up with sweet angel Candice Swanepoel at the Gramercy Hotel last night celebrating the launch of the Victoria's Secret Angel fragrance and the all-new Dreams Angels bra collections. Next week she (and her wings) return to the runway in the epic VS show at the Armory airing on CBS on November 29th. Let's see how she's feeling...How many years have you been walking in the show?Since 2006. Still fun?I still get super nervous. Alessandra (Ambrosio) and Adriana Lima have been doing it for years, and they do, too. It's the biggest show in the world! You're in your lingerie, you know everybody's gonna see you. It's one of the best jobs of the year. We get to feel like a superstar for a night, and enjoy everything we've worked for throughout the year, because we work so hard.Who are the other angels who you're close with?Erin (Heatherton) is one of my best friends. I'm also close with Rosie (Huntington-Whitely) and Lily Aldridge. We're all pretty close and supportive of each other.You guys do a lot of interviews on the day of the show. Any backstage questions from the press that stick out?Not really. It's such a crazy and surreal day that you don't remember anything. What just happened to me? Are you friends with Erin's dog Eddie?Oh, yes. What's Eddie really like?He's a naughty little boy! I also have a Jack Russell named Luna, and I used to bring him to play. They'd run around like crazy.Why is your dog named Luna?Luna is moon in Spanish or Portuguese, and my boyfriend is Brazilian. Luna is our child.fashionweekdaily.comCandice Swanepoel, Erin Heatherton Host Victoria’s Secret Dream Angels Dinner, Talk Wings and New iPhoneApparently, Angels eat, work on their core strength, and are obsessed with Apple products.“I have so many gadgets already—I’m a gadget freak. I think I should limit myself on the iThings,” Erin Heatherton confessed to FashionEtc. “I have an iPhone 4, and iPad, the MacBook Pro, the MacBook Air.”Fellow Victoria’s Secret model Candice Swanepoel admitted to wanting an iPhone 4, “but I’m waiting for people to figure out the glitches,” she said, looking at Heatherton.The Angels were on hand to host a dinner at New York’s Gramercy Park Hotel celebrating the launch of the new VS Angel fragrance, as well as the Dream Angels bra collections.Both came from fittings for the upcoming Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, which takes place on November 9 and will air on CBS November 29.“There are amazing wings this year,” Heatherton revealed to FashionEtc, “but I’m going to need to be working on my core strength.”“My wings this year are light,” Swanepoel told us. “Last year, I almost wore these wings that looked like two harps. The day of the rehearsal, I couldn’t walk with them. I could walk, but it wasn’t a sexy walk. They were cut from the show which was sad because they took so much time to make.”However, she’s facing an even more daunting task. “I’m opening the show and it’s extra pressure because you kind of start the energy of the show. All the other girls see your energy,” Swanepoel said, adding, “It’s a huge honor to be doing that.”For the ballet-themed section, she will be wearing a fitted purple corset with wings. “It’s really elegant.”We can’t wait.In the meantime, check out the $2.5 million Fantasy Treasure Bra Miranda Kerr will be sporting in the show.fashionetc.com

November 3, 201114 yr ANGEL / FOODHaving dinner with Victoria's Secret bombshell Candice Swanepoel For a truly sublime experience, try having dinner with a Victoria's Secret Angel. It's fun; they're sweethearts; and there's always good wine. On the other hand, asking a supermodel to pass the mashed potatoes can be a little bit intimidating for any girl who's wondered why she's not taller / skinnier / fill in the blank. So it was with a mixture of excitement and cynicism that I found myself seated next to Candice Swanepoel and Erin Heatherton at the Gramercy Park Hotel. After taking a deep breath and banishing the "Damn, I hate you and your perfect straight, shiny f*?!-ing hair" impulses, I asked Candice some questions about the upcoming Victoria's Secret show. Then I showed Erin her NYLON blog homage, she freaked out, and we spent the next thirty minutes gossiping about boys - but you wont get a transcript of that. (Sorry!) Candice, how did you get your name? It's a French name, and my mom's French. Thank god for her, because my name would have been Susan if my dad had his way. Can you imagine? "Susan Swanepoel!" It's too much. A lot of people call me Candy, and my mom calls me Lucie, and my boyfriend calls me "little cat" in Portuguese. What's your go-to karaoke song? Disney! The Pocohontas song "Colors of the Wind." Or something emotional that you can really get into. Aladdin is good for that, too. The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show is next week, and you'll be in a bikini being filmed for millions of people. What are you doing to prepare? That's the question of the day. I'm working out as much as I can in the time I have. People think Victoria's Secret Angels have some sort of training camp, like the baseball teams, but we don't all work out together because we all have different bodies, so it's a solo mission. We each get a different body "prescription." Me, I'm always like, "Make the butt look good! Make the butt look good!" My trainer thinks I'm crazy. The look for VS angels seems to always include lots of eyeliner... Christopher Arnoff does my makeup and we always go for a cat eye. It's mostly because I'm obsessed with cats, but since we start shooting so early in the morning, I need a look that can go from morning to night. The kind he uses on me is M.A.C and it stays on all day. What's on your iPod right now? I have a lot of Brazilian music and a lot of reggae. Are you nervous for Kanye to perform at the show? Oh, you have no idea how excited I am. I'm really interested to see how Kanye's going to interact with the girls on stage, because you never really know until the show is happening. Akon was really good at it and Usher was so nice to us - I loved him! He had such a chemistry onstage with us. I'm so curious what Kanye will be like. What's your spirit animal? A Cheetah! --FARAN KRENTCIL nylonmag.com Candice Swanepoel And Erin Heatheron Talk Victoria's Secret, Dating And ModelingLast Tuesday night, we had the opportunity to have dinner with Victoria's Secret Angels Candice Swanepoel and Erin Heatherton at the Gramercy Park Hotel. While I felt awkward eating cheese cake in front of the pair of statuesque blonde bombshells, I assume that it must have been much worse for them to film the commercial for the new dream angels bra collection in Prague, but I was wrong. Although she paraded around the streets wearing only a bra and underwear, Heatherton wasn't bothered, "It felt fine - you’re surrounded by so many people that we work with all the time. It’s like family. Every advertising shoot or every commercial we do, they’re there." The most important part of the family for Heatherton is obviously the fellow angels. "My best friend’s Candice," she says, "One of my best friends is Lily, and another one of my best friends in the world is Rosie, but she’s not doing Victoria's Secret anymore. And honestly the best thing about working with Victoria’s Secret for me is that they are my best friends in the world, like, the sisters that I never had." While Victoria's Secret may be a place to make best friends forever, it is not necessarily a place to find a date. Swanepoel says, "I think it's harder to date as an angel, when people meet you it's hard to look past our job, what we look like. They are always trying to impress you, you know, like 'come to my mansion blah blah blah."" Not that she's on the market, Swanepoel has been with her boyfriend for the last six years, since she was only 17-years-old. Although she feels like she is "married already," that doesn't mean she doesn't have crushes: "I had a little Bieber fever but he got too old," she laughs over dinner. And regarding Tom Ford, "He touches you and you're like oh!" Heatherton, on the other hand, is single. And dating. "I think being an Angel makes [dating], well, I don’t know. I wouldn’t know what it’s like to be any different." Any notable dates recently? "There are so many. There’s dinners and – it’s fun, I mean. I had a boyfriend for a long time and I’ve never really been single as an adult." Now an ideal Friday night for Heatherton would include the following itinerary: "I would take a bath and then I would play with my dog and probably go out and meet my friends for dinner somewhere. Probably like Barbuto or – I like this place Joseph Leonard, it just opened in the West Village. Mary’s Fish Camp is my number one. I live in the West Village, so I can walk there and walk home. " After dinner, "My friends DJ so I’ll go out and see my friends and dance. Recently, I went out to this place called Westway, which is right near my apartment and my friend Harley [Viera-Newton] was DJing. We always have our songs that we love, like 'Six Foot Seven Foot,' really gangster hip-hop songs and I just hang out with her and it’s just a good night. She’s playing the music, so it’s like a basement party, but more adult." stylelist.com
