For those of you who are as obsessed with the Victorias Secret Fashion Show as I am, here are some candid behind the scenes photos of the fittings featuring Candice Swanepoel, Doutzen Kros and more.

Don’t forget that the show airs December 4th at 10pm on CBS.

This is definitely one of my favourite editorials featuring Candice this year. She looks natural, is styled well and actually looks like she is having fun.

  • Oscar de la Renta
  • Fall 2012 Campaign
  • Model: Candice Swanepoel and Katryn Kruger
  • Photographer: Craig McDean
  • Stylist: Alex White

I adore Candice and I have loved what I have seen from Katryn but I am not sure how I feel about the South African beauties being cast together. They each look lovely, I mean how could they not in such stunning designs? But I am unsure about them being cast together and how they really mesh in the images. Aside from that I think for the first campaign to not feature Karlie Kloss in five seasons looks pretty spectacular. I fell in love with the pastel and jewel screen garments when I first saw them sashay down the runway in February and I must say that I love them just as much today. 

Oscar, you can do no wrong.

By the way, I encourage you to click play below if you have not seen the collection in full on the runway and to click here if you want to see me previously over gushing about my true love, Oscar.

  • Harper’s Bazaar US
  • October 2011
  • Model: Candice Swanepoel
  • Photographer: Karl Lagerfeld
  • Stylist:Andrew Richardson

As anyone who has followed my blog for at least a month would know, I adore black and white images. I love the emotion that they evoke and the beauty they often expel. Here Candice dons stunning haute couture fall 2011 gowns from the likes of Atelier Versace, Givenchy and of course, Chanel. I do love seeing her in editorials that don’t feel like they belong in a men’s magazine.

Candice Swanepoel photographed by Mario Testino for the September 2011 issue of Allure.

Last year Mario Testino dubbed Candice the “Next Hot Model”. I have always adored her and I cannot wait to see where her career goes, if Mario says she is the next big thing then I certainly trust his judgement as he turned Kate Moss into a household name. Seriously though why is he not hosting America’s Next Top Model, he seems to have way better intuition that Tyra.  Oh, and yes that is IAN SOMERHALDER starring alongside her. I am not going to lie. When I saw the names Ian Somderhalder, Candice Swanepoel and Mario Testino in one sentence I thought I had died and gone to heaven. 

Now with all of that said time to take a 108 and throw this out there: She looks dead in the eyes and looks so stiff and boring. Ian is barely in any of the shots and he is such a pop culture draw (and insanely hot) so you would think they would have him featured a bit more then just a foot or an arm here and there and creeping in the corner of shots. Disappointing to say the least.
