Victoria's Secret - A Look Behind the Show


Well, Santa Claus may have already arrived in the states, and we already witnessed a tree lighting or two, but for us in the states the holidays really gets underway when those beautiful, sexy angles in lacy lingerie and angelical wings take to the runway in the annual Victoria's Secret fashion show.


As we count down the hours to the show, which will air on the CBS network in the states on Wednesday, December 3, 2008 at 10 pm Eastern and Pacific Time, we would like to provide you with a video glimpse behind the scenes.


We would like to thank Shelby Holliday a graduate reporter for Palestra.net for this revealing peek behind the Victoria's Secret fashion show tent.

Although the heavenly angles of Victoria's Secret may seem beyond approach, they are really very down to earth when it comes to preparing for the show, as Shelby discovers in this look behind the scenes.


So for some hair raising glances or at least some sexy models in hair curlers, come take a look behind the scenes at the Victoria's Secret fashion show tent.



How do these super models get in shape for this event?


Well, model Sessille Lopez uses a very intense kick boxing session to help her get ready for the show. Exercise is important for keeping a well toned, tight stomach for all those sexy outfits.

New York based model Behati Prinsloo feels like a doll as she is pulled and pushed, bended and turn by the hair stylists, makeup artists and fitters as they prepare her for the show.






Supermodel Alessandra Ambrosio routine includes sitting by the pool and getting a little tan so she will look good on the runway.


Alessandra also believes in exercise with crunches for your stomach and lots of healthy food and, of course, plenty of sleep.



Marissa Miller, who has graced many a SI swimsuit issue, also believes in exercise, and her favorite pastime besides sleeping, which is surfing.


Marissa is also looking forward to her after show breakfast, which will include strawberry waffles and Eggs Benedict.


Well, all that hard work deserves such a yummy reward.

Holiday Dresses...just to start

Another excuse to buy another dress for another occasion, when it's not really necessary, especially now with the recession... but hey, let's have a look anyway.

& we're going for ideas,
not prices. Moving along, my little obsession continues with all things white/ivory/beige, within that realm of things, and of course greys and blacks; I thought the following dresses were rather interesting. Something different from the usual holiday dresses you see hung on rack after rack, store after store. Let's start off with a Missoni scarf dress.

I love the back, and especially the subtle pattern, and how the dress has been hemmed. You see a lot of scarf dresses, but this one has some character.

And then after BG's talk of her Rebecca Taylor dress, I had to go find some more because her dress was so beautiful! Simple, but so elegant! The perfect black dress.

It's definitely a piece you could dress up and down. Versatility is always a good thing. I can just imagine how flowing the material would look.

Above, a dress by Miu Miu. Usually I see things by Miu Miu and I get excited, then after a while I don't really like them. However I like this one, and it kind of reminds me of an extremely toned down version of what BG and HG called the "S" dress in a previous post. I love the pleated bottom.

And then there is Chloe. How cute! I have a dress that has a veil layer on top similar to this, and I absolutely adore it. However mine is all black, so this change hue is something I'm drawn to.

And then there is Vera Wang.

Maybe a little too generic and confined? I'm not entirely sure. But beading detail is always an extravagance one can indulge in. Something more grand and sophisticated than sequins and glitter.

So maybe this year, opt for softer tones? Whatever suits your fancy, this was just one idea. There shall be more to come!

Free Louis Vuitton!!!!


The US has finally declared yesterday that it is officially in recession according to the National Bureau of Economic Research and has been since December 2007. This is based on a number of measures including job losses, declines in personal income, and declines in real GDP. This impacts the world's economic milieu so I was pleased to find this article that First Country Financial , a local Philippine bank, is actually giving away Louis Vuittons with a P400,000 ($8100) deposit for two years. Leave it up to the brand-conscious Filipinos to come up with this "scheme" to attract potential clients. LVoe it!!! For actual article, click here.
